$4.[1]$ The following network diagram represents a minimum cost transshipment problem.

Which of the following statements are true?

$($a$)$ Excluding non$-$negativity constraints, each decision variable appears in $3$ or more of the constraints in this problem's formulation.

$($b$)$ At the optimal solution, the constraint at Node A will be binding.

$($c$)$ In the optimal solution, at least one node will recive more units thin are required at that node.

$($d$)$ At the optimal solution, the constraint at Node $B$ will have no slack.

$($e$)$ None of the alove.

$5.[1]$ Which of the following statements are true for the trunshipuent problem in the previous question?

$($a$)$ Acording to the diagram, the Lotal product denanded is $80.$

$($b$)$ Node D will clearly send supply to Node E$.$

$($c$)$ Ignoring non negativity constraints, at least two constraints will have non$-$zero slack at the optimal solution.

$($d$)$ In the optimal solution, at least one node will receive more units than are required at that node:

$($e$)$ None of the alove:

$($a$)$ First column.

$($b$)$ Second columin.

$($c$)$ Third column.

$($d$)$ Any column $($can be specified$).$
