Example 8.1 Copying Service A copying service has decided to open an office in the central business district of a city. The manager has identified four office buildings that will generate a major portion of its business, and Figure 3.6 shows the location of these demand points on an xy coordinate system. Weights are attached to each point and represent potential demand per month in hundreds of orders. The manager would like to determine a central location that will minimize the total distance per month that customers travel to the copying service.
