Assume the notation A3,B1,B2,B3,C1 denotes the tons moved from Supplier A to Plant 3, Plant 1, and Plant 2, respectively. The diagram shows the only possible paths between Suppliers A, B, C and Plants 1,2, and 3 with the associated cost per ton. The available supply at the 3 suppliers and requirements at the 3 plants are also shown in tons. Define the following decision variables:
A3 : amount of shipping from supplier A to plant 3
B1 : amount of shipping from supplier B to plant 1
B2 : amount of shipping from supplier B to plant 2
B3 : amount of shipping from supplier B to plant 3
C1 : amount of shipping from supplier C to plant 1
What is the destination constraint for Plant 3?
A3+B3=300
B1+C1=600
B1+B2+B3700
A3+B2+C1=1400
