1. La Boulangerie Chocolaterie is looking to establish a distribution centre in the City of Vancouver to service its four mall retail locations. Location scouts have plotted the mall locations on a 10 x 10 grid overlying the city. The following information represents each mall’s xy grid coordinates and the weight attached to each mall, representing the total number of deliveries per month.
