Try to choose the correct answer, note that four wrong answers will cancel one correct answer (t.e. each wrong answer will be penalized by -1 pt.): [ 4 pts. ) A new assembly machine is to be placed in a flexible manufacturing cell consisting of four automated machines that are located at these coordinates: (5.982, 2.234), (7.328,6.217),(5.928, 1.063), and (2.852 3.826). The interactions (i.e. number of trips) between the new assembly machine and the existing ones are 16, 8, 6, and 17 units per time period. Which one of the following coordinates is closest to the gravity solution of the above facility location problem in order to minimize the sum of the weighted square Euclidean distances to be moved? Select one: a. (5.072,3.339) b. (6.296,2.339) C. (3.756,3.339) d. (5.605,5.910)
