Chapter 5.3, Problem 54E

In Problems 49-64, construct a mathematical model in the form of a linear programming problem. (The answers in the back of the book for these application problems include the model.) Then solve by the geometric method.

Refer to Problem 53. If each van can transport 7 people and there are 35 available chaperones, show that the optimal solution found graphically involves decimals. Find all feasible solutions with integer coordinates and identify the one that minimizes the transportation costs. Can this optimal integer solution be obtained by rounding the optimal decimal solution? Explain.
