Economics

A chain of grocery stores has 5 stores and 3 warehouses. The following table gives the distances from each warehouse to the five stores.

		St1	St2	St3	St4	St5
Warehouse	1	10	15	25	30	12
Warehouse	2	25	20	10	22	15
Warehouse	3	30	22	15	10	30

Assume the cost of shipping one pound of an item per mile is $0.02 or 2 cents. If the weights of items each store must receive per week are given by the row vector W = [10,000 25,000 15,000 30,000 20,000], rank the warehouses in terms of cost effectiveness of shipping items to all stores.
