Question

"Mama's Kitchen" serves from 5:30am each morning until 7:30pm in the afternoon. Tables are set and cleared by busers working 5-hour shifts beginning on the hour from 5am (shift #1) through 3pm (shift #11). Most are college students who hate to get up early in the morning, so Mama's pays $12 per hour for the 5am, 6am, 7am and 8am shifts, and $9 per hour for the others. The manager seeks a minimum cost staffing plan that will have at least a minimum number of busers on duty each hour: Formulate a linear programming model (LP) for this problem. Be sure to define your decision variables!
