The director of FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) feels that the number of facilities you have found in Exercise 4.17 is excessive. Find the smallest integer coverage distance such that FEMA can get by with only four facility bases.
Note: You may need to change some of the default conditions on the Lagrangian procedure here.
Clearly show how you obtained the solution you did. In other words, discuss what values of the coverage distance you tried and how you had to solve each case. Under the restriction that you locate only four facilities, where should they be located if the coverage distance is to be minimized and all demands are to be covered?
