8.2. # A temporary-help agency wants to open an office in a suburban section of a large city. It has identified five large corporate offices as potential customers. The locations of these offices in miles on an xy coordinate grid for the area are c₁ = (4,4), c₂=(4, 11), cy=(7.2). c₁ (11. 11), and cs= (14.7). The expected demand for temporary help from these customers is weighted as w₁ = 3, w = 2, w3 = 2, w4 = 4, and ws=1. The agency reimburses employees for travel expenses incurred by their assignments, therefore, recommend a location (i.e.. xy coordinates) for the agency that will minimize the total weighted metropolitan distance for job-related travel.
