I have two locations where I will be delivering goods. Vaalbara is located at coordinates (10,0) and I have 10 truckloads going to it. Kenorland is located at coordinates (20,20) and I have 40 truckloads going to it. What is the center of gravity's X coordinate? Round to the nearest whole number (e.g. 33.2 -> 33).

Kenorland is located at coordinates (20,20) and I have 40 truckloads going to it. What is the center of gravity's Y coordinate? Round to the nearest whole number (e.g. 33.2 -> 33). 0*10 + 20*40 = 800. Sum of loads = 50. Y coordinate = 16
Keegan and Hossein founded Apadana Holdings, which operates under the name Mica Paint and Hardware. Their primary establishment, Mica Parktown North, was constructed from scratch and launched on August 25, 2021, with the purpose of catering to the community members and construction professionals in the vicinity. The business recently purchased an additional store in Emmarentia and commenced operations six months ago. The duo intends to broaden their operations to Bryanston within the time frames of 2024 and 2025.
The initial capital investment for the establishment of Mica Parktown North, the group's first store, was R4.5 million. However, on the opening day of 2021, this amount suddenly increased to R6.5 million. After experiencing an initial decrease in the number of people visiting the store when it first opened, there has been a consistent and noticeable growth in foot traffic. As a result, the store is now becoming the preferred brand for local residents. The store now handles an…

- Sarah and Alice live and work in different regions of the same country. Each is considering a move to the most economically-prosperous region of this country (referred to below as the “destination region”). Assume that Sarah and Alice are identical in every way except for the following differences: Sarah’s home region is next to the destination region Sarah’s home region is culturally distinct from all other regions in the country Alice’s home region is roughly 2000 km away from the destination region Sarah is 25 years old, while Alice is 35 The unemployment rate in Sarah’s home region is 6.5% The unemployment rate in Alice’s home region is 8% The unemployment rate in the destination region is 5% a) Given this information, describe two reasons why we might expect Sarah to be more likely than Alice to migrate to the destination region. b) Given this information, describe two reasons why we might expect Alice to be more likely than Sarah to migrate to the destination region.arrow_forwardDesign a spreadsheet to compute the total rectilinear distance from a set of up to10 existing locations to any other location. Assume that existing locations areplaced in Columns A and B and the new location in cells D1 and E1. Initializecolumn A with the value of cell D1 and column B with the value of cell E1, so thatthe total distance will be computed correctly when there are fewer than10 locations.a. Suppose that existing facilities are located at (0, 0), (5, 15), (110, 120), (35, 25),(80, 10), (75, 20), (8, 38), (50, 65), (22, 95), and (44, 70), and the new facility is tobe located at (50, 50). Determine the total rectilinear distance of the new facilityto the existing facilities.b. Suppose the new facility in part (a) can be located only at x =0, 5, 10, . . . , 100and y = 0, 10, 20, . . . , 100.

Oliveira Office Supply has a large retail system consisting of twelve stores spread around the country, often in direct competition with Kilroy. However, managers at Oliveira have decided to use two national distribution centers. When Oliveira's stores are mapped on the same grid as Kilroy's, the store locations occur at the coordinates listed in the following table. As in the previous exercise, there are also data to indicate how many trips are made annually to each store:Coordinates TripsSite (k) xk yk nk 1 2 96 21 2 5 41 12 3 20 10 20 4 44 48 15 5 60 58 27 6 100 4 8 7 122 94 21 8 138 80 16 9 150 40 1010 170 18 1811 182 2 2512 190 56 14A)Find the optimal location for Oliveira's two distribution centers in this expanded version of the problem.b) What is the optimal value of the objective function?arrow_forwardConsider you are an owner of one IT organization with 200 employees and you want to keep track of the location information of each employee.
