Posed several questions re. existence of extreme points of
polyhedra and existence of optimal solutions of LPs:
1. When do polyhedra have (and dont have) extreme points?
2. Do (feasible, bounded) LPs always have optimal solutions?
3. Can an optimal solution always be found at an extreme point
of the feasible region?

CP Variables
Each week, the company needs to decide
Prior to the event:
In a typical week j,
sj1 + rj = yj + zj + sj
In a typical week j,
xj + tj1 + yjp + zjq = rj + tj
Page 810
CP Formulation
Take into account:
Need to have at least rj clean napkins on hand in week j
No carryover (clean or dirty) into week 1
Nothing coming from express laundry in the first q weeks
Nothing coming from the regular laundry in the first p weeks
