The BD restaurant chain purchases materials from four different food suppliers. The company wants to construct a new central distribution center to process and package the materials before shipping them to their various restaurants. The suppliers transport items in 40-foot truck trailers, each with a capacity of 38,000 lbs. The locations of the four suppliers and the annual number of trailer loads that will be transported to the distribution center are shown in the following table (distance in miles). Using the center-of-gravity method, determine a possible location for the distribution center.

HY coal sales enterprise has coal storage and sales points in B and D, with available coal quantities of 1600t and 8000t, respectively; A and C represents the locations of two coal users, with a demand of 8000t and 1600t respectively. The distribution of relevant locations and travel distances are shown in Figure 1. Based on the above conditions, try to calculate and explain from the perspective of transportation capacity consumption: How should logistics company HY plan transportation routes in order to make them more reasonable?
