A delivery truck must deliver packages to 6 different store locations (A, B, C, D, E, and F). The trip must start and end at C. The graph below shows the distances (in miles) between locations. We want to minimize the total distance traveled.



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

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



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:
◦ 58 miles.
◦ 50 miles.
◦ 63 miles.
◦ 52 miles.
◦ none of these

Using only the nearest-neighbor, repetitive nearest-neighbor, and cheapest-link algorithms (not brute force) on this graph,
◦ the nearest-neighbor and the repetitive nearest-neighbor algorithms both yield the shortest trip.
◦ the repetitive nearest-neighbor algorithm yields the shortest trip.
◦ the cheapest-link and the repetitive nearest-neighbor algorithms both yield the shortest trip.
◦ the cheapest-link algorithm yields the shortest trip.
◦ the nearest-neighbor algorithm yields the shortest trip.

Human neurons are so small that they require a microscope in order to be seen. However, some neurons can be up to 3 feet long, such as those that extend from the spinal cord to the toes.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness. As of yet, there is no cure. Everyone is at risk, and there may be no warning signs. It is six to eight times more common in African Americans than in whites. The best and most effective way to detect glaucoma is to receive a dilated eye examination.

All adults should have their cholesterol levels checked once every 5 years. During 2009–2010, 69.4% of Americans age 20 and older reported having their cholesterol checked within the last five years.

Did you know?

The liver is the only organ that has the ability to regenerate itself after certain types of damage. As much as 25% of the liver can be removed, and it will still regenerate back to its original shape and size. However, the liver cannot regenerate after severe damage caused by alcohol.

On average, someone in the United States has a stroke about every 40 seconds. This is about 795,000 people per year.
