Question: EXAMPLE LOADING PLANE on how to resolved the exercises
A cargo plane has three compartments to store: front, center and rear.
These compartments have a capacity limit both in weight and space. The
Data is summarized below:
| compartment | weight capacity (ton) | space capacity ft3 |
| front | 12 | 7000 |
| central | 18 | 9000 |
| rear | 10 | 5000 |
Moreover, to keep the plane balanced, the weight of the cargo in the respective
compartments must be proportional to their capacity. There are offers for four
cargoes on a nearby flight since there is space
| Load | Weight (ton) | Volume (ft3/ton) | Gain ( $/ton) |
| 1 | 20 | 500 | 320 |
| 2 | 16 | 700 | 400 |
| 3 | 25 | 600 | 360 |
| 4 | 13 | 400 | 290 |
Any fraction of these charges can be accepted. The objective is to determine what amount
of each load must be accepted (if accepted) and how to distribute it in the compartments for
maximize flight gain.
