3. Why choose linear programming for location decisions?
Linear programming helps location decisions by building a mathematical model with an objective function—such as minimizing transportation cost—and linear constraints like capacity, demand, and distance. Solving the model yields an optimal allocation of facilities and flows, making it ideal for large-scale, data-rich problems with clearly defined relationships.
