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.

Did you know?

Once thought to have neurofibromatosis, Joseph Merrick (also known as "the elephant man") is now, in retrospect, thought by clinical experts to have had Proteus syndrome. This endocrine disease causes continued and abnormal growth of the bones, muscles, skin, and so on and can become completely debilitating with severe deformities occurring anywhere on the body.

Limit intake of red meat and dairy products made with whole milk. Choose skim milk, low-fat or fat-free dairy products. Limit fried food. Use healthy oils when cooking.

Did you know?

Many supplement containers do not even contain what their labels say. There are many documented reports of products containing much less, or more, that what is listed on their labels. They may also contain undisclosed prescription drugs and even contaminants.
