- Explain how to determine the number of variables and constraints that would be in a transportation problem simplyby knowing the number of sources and the number of destinations.BETTER PRODUCTS COMPANY has decided to start manufacturing four new products in three plants that currently have excess production capacity. The products require comparable production effort per unit, so the available production capacity in the plants is measured by the number of units of any product that can be manufactured per day. a)Formulate this problem as a transportation problem by constructing the appropriate parameter table. I already have an optimal solution (it's from the book).

The two construction sites are 12 miles apart, and, to compli-cate matters, the telephone at the lumberyard is out of order. Where should he go first if he wants to minimizethe distance he can expect to drive and he feels that(a) the odds are 5 to 1 that the lumber should go to theconstruction site that is 33 miles from the lumberyard;(b) the odds are 2 to 1 that the lumber should go to theconstruction site that is 33 miles from the lumberyard;(c) the odds are 3 to 1 that the lumber should go to theconstruction site that is 33 miles
