Calculate the location x and y coordinates of the new


A manufacturing company has just signed a contract to deliver products to three locations, and they are trying to decide where to put their new warehouse. The three delivery locations are Chicago, Kansas City, and Memphis. The x, y coordinates for the delivery locations are as follows:

                Location                       x coordinate   y coordinate

                Chicago                                92                           42

                Kansas City                         85                           39

                Memphis                            90                           35

The total quantity to be delivered to each destination is: 400 to Chicago, 150 to Kansas City, and 100 to Memphis. Calculate the location (x and y coordinates) of the new warehouse using the Center of Gravity approach.
