A municipal solid-waste site for a city must be located at site A or Site B. After sorting, some of the solid refuse will be transported to an electric power plant where it will be used as fuel. Data for the hauling of refuse from each site to the power plant are shown as such: Site A Site B Average hauling distance 4 miles 3 miles Annual rental fee for solid waste$5,000 $100,000 Hauling cost$1.50/yd^3-mile $1.50/yd^3-mile If the power plant will pay $8.00 per cubic yard of sorted waste delivered to the plant, where should the solid- waste site be located? Use the city's viewpoint and assume that 200,000 cubic yards of refuse will be hauled to the plant for one year only. One site must be selected.
