Question

The Rent-A-Dent car rental company allows its customers to pick up a rental car at
one location and return it to any of its locations. Currently, two locations (1 and 2)
have 16 and 18 surplus cars, respectively, and four locations (3, 4, 5, and 6) each need
10 cars. The costs of getting the surplus cars from locations 1 and 2 to the other
locations are summarized in the following table.
Costs of Transporting Cars Between Locations
Location 3 Location 4 Location 5 Location 6
Location 1 $54 $17 $23 $30
Location 2 $24 $18 $19 $31
Because 34 surplus cars are available at locations 1 and 2, and 40 cars are needed at
locations 3, 4, 5, and 6, some locations will not receive as many cars as they need.
However, management wants to make sure that all the surplus cars are sent where
they are needed, and that each location needing cars receives at least five.
