A food company produces two types of emergency food,type t and type c,the food company received a contract. Let the variables t and c represent the amount of type t and type c. Goal 1:type t emergency food takes 10 hours to produce and type c takes 5 hours. The total number of work hoursavailable per period is approximately 3200 hours. Goal 2: one ton of type t uses 1 ton of flour and one ton of type c uses 0.5 ton of flour; 300 tons of flour are available for a period and no more can be bought. Goal 3: the company is committed to providing the aid agency with approximately 200 tons of type t emergency food in a period Goal 4: the demand for type c emergency food in the market is approximately 250 tons. question:(a) define deviation variable (b)objective function: to minimize sum of percentage deviation (c) state all constraints using deviation variables
