Each city requires 40,000 kilowatt hours (kWh) of power, and Chicago, Dallas, and Miami are capable of producing 70,000 kWh. Assume that shipping 1,000 kWh over 100 Kilometres costs $4. Sources can ship to themselves but cost is $0 From where should power be sent to minimize the cost of meeting each city’s demand? % Change from original Set up and solve this model and find the minimum cost given the constraints. Put your answer in the space below In additional answer the three marginal insight questions. - insights are always based off the original model so make sure you return to the original setting each time - You might want to copy the model down below and use this to get your insights that way your original model is always correct. - you will also have to copy and paste as values for each insight so you remove the formulas ANSWER:
