OK, I'm still not sure I understand all your assumptions here.
Are these expressions exactly of the form
(c0 + c3 + ...) * v0 + (c1 + c3 + ...) * v1 + ...
where all the ci's and vi's are literal variables? Or are the ci's
arbitrary expressions (presumably independent of the vi's)?
Are we assuming that the ci's are all positive?
Perhaps it would be clearer if you would give us a *specific* real example
of your expression rather than say it is "of the form"....
