Ballplayer selection problem:- The Dubuque Sackers, a class D baseball team, face a tough four-game road trip against league rivals in Des Moines, Davenport, Omaha, and Peoria. Manager "Red" Revelle faces the task of scheduling his four starting pitchers for appro­priate games. Because the games are to be played back to back in less than one week, Revelle cannot count on any pitcher to start in more than one game.

Revelle knows the strengths and weaknesses not only of his pitchers, but also of his opponents. He has developed a performance rating for each of his start­ing pitchers against each of these teams. The ratings are listed in the table on this page. What pitching rota­tion should manager Revelle set to provide the high­est total of the performance ratings?

(a)   Formulate this problem using LP.
