Duckwheat is produced in Kansas and Mexico and consumed in New York and Cal- ifornia. Kansas produces 15 shnupells of duckwheat and Mexico 8. Meanwhile, New York consumes 10 shnupells and California 13. The transportation costs per shnupell are $4 from Mexico to New York, $1 from Mexico to California, $2 from Kansas to New York, and $3 and from Kansas to California. Write a linear program that decides the amounts of duckwheat (in shnupells and fractions of a shnupell) to be transported from each producer to each consumer, so as to minimize the overall transportation cost. Also provide the optimal transport plan by solving the formulated linear program.
