There are five machines located at the points (0, 0), (2, 0), (0, 2), (2, 3) and (4,3) respectively. A repair shop is planned in the facility. The foreman claims that for any number of expected repair trips between these machines and the repair shop, the optimal location of the new facility can never be at the location (2,1). State whether this claim is true or false.
