question 55

Essay

Given the following feasible solution determine if the problem is degenerate and then find the optimal solution and its cost. Assume that capacity for source A is 10 and 30 for source B. Destination A demands 10 units while destination B demands 30 units. Cost of shipping per unit is given as AA ($4), AB ($1), BA ($3), and BB ($2).
$$\begin{array} { | l | c | c | } \hline & \text { Destination A } & \text { Destination B } \\\hline \text { Source A } & 10 & \\\hline \text { Source B } & & 30 \\\hline\end{array}$$

Definitions:

Burial

In geology, this refers to the process of layering sediments on top of each other, which can lead to the formation of sedimentary rocks or the fossilization of organisms.

Compaction

Process by which soil, sediment, and volcanic materials lose pore space in response to the weight of overlying material.

Cementation

The precipitation of a binding material (the cement) around grains in sedimentary rocks.

Rock Types

Rock types are classifications of rocks based on their genesis, including three main categories: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.
