A mail truck must deliver packages to 5 different homes (A, B, C, D, and E). The trip must start and end at A. The graph below shows the distances (in miles) between locations. We want to minimize the total distance traveled.



The repetitive nearest-neighbor tour starting with vertex A is given by:
◦ A, B, C, D, E, A.
◦ A, E, C, D, B, A.
◦ A, D, B, E, C, A.
◦ A, C, D, B, E, A.
◦ none of these

The cheapest-link tour starting with vertex A is given by:
◦ A, D, B, E, C, A.
◦ A, E, C, D, B, A.
◦ A, C, D, B, E, A.
◦ A, B, C, D, E, A.
◦ none of these

The shortest trip in this situation can be found using
◦ the cheapest-link algorithm.
◦ the nearest-neighbor algorithm.
◦ both the nearest-neighbor and the cheapest-link algorithms.
◦ the repetitive nearest-neighbor algorithm.
◦ all of these algorithms give the shortest trip in this situation.

Using both the cheapest-link and the repetitive nearest-neighbor algorithm, the length of the shortest trip we can find (without using brute force) is:
◦ 28 miles.
◦ 68 miles.
◦ 58 miles.
◦ 57 miles.
◦ none of these

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
