                        3.  X optimum is define if partial sum first equal or exceeds one-half the total
                        4.  Repeat steps to get the optimum value of Y.










                     The total weighted distance resulting from the location x = (5, 4) is:


                               Minimum f(x) = max [(│x -ai │ + │y – bi │, I = 1,2,…m]

                                                Formula 2.6: Total weight distance


                         f(5,4) = 5(I5 - 11 + I4 – 1I) + 6(I5 – 5I + I4 – 2I) + 2(I5 – 2I + I4 – 8I) +

                                 4(I5 – 4I + I4 – 4I) + 8(I5 – 8I + I4 – 6I)
                               = 35 + 12 + 14 + 4 + 40
                               = 105


                     2.4.3  Minimax Location Model

                            The objective of minimax location model is to minimize the maximum distance
                     between the new facility and any existing facility. The minimax location problem is
                     formulated as below:




                                               Formula 2.7: Minimax location model

                     The conditions for achieving the minimax solution are:

                            c1 = min (ai + bi)
                            c2 = max (ai + bi)
                            c3 = min (-ai + bi)
                            c4 = max (-ai + bi)
