Describe the kind of graph you would use to model each of the following scenarios. Be specific and explain your answer. (a) City streets that can be one-way or two-way. (b) Locations and distances between delivery locations used to map a delivery route. (c) The Internet for the purpose of mapping data flow. (d) A company's hierarchical structure (e) A collaboration map where nodes are people and edges mean they have collaborated on a project.

Step 1
In a directed graph, each street would be represented by an edge with an arrow indicating the direction of traffic flow. This allows us to represent the one-way and two-way streets accurately. Show more…

What kind of graph (from Table 1) can be used to model a highway system between major cities where a) there is an edge between the vertices representing cities if there is an interstate highway between them? b) there is an edge between the vertices representing cities for each interstate highway between them? c) there is an edge between the vertices representing cities for each interstate highway between them, and there is a loop at the vertex representing a city if there is an interstate highway that circles this city?

What kind of graph (based on those defined in section 2 of the Instructor Notes for Module 7) can be used to model a highway system between major cities where: there is an edge between the vertices representing cities if there is an interstate highway between them? there is an edge between the vertices representing cities for each interstate highway between them? there is an edge between the vertices representing cities for each interstate highway between them, and there is a loop at the vertex representing a city if there is an interstate highway that circles this city?
