3.4-15* A cargo plane has three compartments for storing cargo: front, center, and back.

These
compartments have capacity limits on both weight and space, as summarized below:

Furthermore, the weight of the cargo in the respective compartments must be the same proportion of that
compartments weight capacity to maintain the balance of the airplane.
The following four cargoes have been offered for shipment on an upcoming flight as space is available:

Any portion of these cargoes can be accepted. The objective is to determine how much (if any) of each
cargo should be accepted and how to distribute each among the compartments to maximize the total
profit for the flight.
1. Write down the mathematical models of the problems (clearly define decision variables,
parameters, objective function and constraints with proper notation).
2. Write down the optimal solution (the optimal values of decision variables and objective function)
found with AMPL.
3. Include screen shots that show that you have run AMPL and got the results.
4. Copy and paste model and data files that you have used to run AMPL. Do not forget to indicate
the numbers of the homework problems as you copy and paste the files.
