Please define the variables and give the LINGO CODE & SOLUTION REPORT. Please define the variables and give the LINGO CODE & SOLUTION REPORT.

5. (20 marks) A helicopter at location 0 , which is at an offshore supply base in St. John's, needs to visit all four offshore platforms on one trip. These platforms are denoted as locations 1,2,3, and 4. The distance in km that it would take a helicopter to travel from one location to another is given in the following table. Because these are distances in the air, the table is symmetric. The objective is to minimize the total distance travelled. (a) Follow page 1 part (d), omitting the sub-tour constraints. (b) Solve this (partial) model. Show that this solution is not a tour, and state the two sub-tours. (c) Give a constraint that would, if added to the formulation of (b), prevent this specific situation from arising. Re-solve the computer model, and state whether or not this new solution is a tour. (d) If necessary, repeat (c) until a tour is obtained
