Question 49

Multiple Choice

Data on cost, demand, and supply for a balanced (total supply equals total demand) transportation problem is given in the table below. In the linear programming formulation of this transportation problem with Xij\mathrm{X}_{i j} denoting the amount shipped from supply point ii ( 1 or 2 ) to demand point j(1,2j(1,2 or 3 ) , the correct objective function is
