Garysburg Fire Rescue $($GFR$)$ is considering three different locations for a new fire station. Using

factor rating, GFR has created the following table. When rating these locations, GFR used a $5-$

point scale, where $1$ means unfavorable and $5$ means excellent. $($Noteshaper Scenario #$26)$

Factor Weight Location $1$ Location $2$ Location $3$

Cost of land $0\mathrm{.}6423$

Accessibility $0\mathrm{.}1224$

Size of Land $0\mathrm{.}3143$

a$.$ Which of the following statements are true and which are false?

I. The cost of the available land parcel is of the greatest importance in this

analysis.

II$.$ Location $2$ has better accessibility than location $3.$

III. GFR considers the size of the available land parcel to be the least important

factor.

b$.$ According to the analysis above, where will GFR locate the new fire station?

c$.$ Suppose Ms$.$ Meera, a manager at GFR$,$ said that the current weights given to

the factors in the table above were wrong. She believes they should be $0\mathrm{.}3$ for

Cost of land, $0\mathrm{.}4$ for Accessibility, and $0\mathrm{.}3$ for Size of Land. Given the new set of

weights where should GFR locate the new fire station?
