P5. A rock band is planning a five-city concert tour. The cities and the distances (in miles) between are given the in weighted graph below. The tour must start and end at A. The cost of the chartered bus the band is traveling in is $8 per mile. Therefore, they want to find the route of minimal distance in order to minimize bus costs. a. Use the Repetitive Nearest Neighbor Algorithm to find the route of minimum distance. b. Based on a, how much would the bus cost? c. Use the Cheapest Link (Sorted Edges) Algorithm to find the route of minimum distance.

Given a list of cities and their pair wise distances, the task is to find a shortest possible tour that visits each city exactly once. A salesman has to visit five cities A, B, C, D and E. The distances (in hundred kilometers) between the five cities are shown in the following Table: If the salesman starts from city A and has to come back to city A. Use a new Alternate Method of an assignment problem to find out, which route should he selects so that the total distance traveled becomes minimum.

You have three errands to run around town, in no particular order. You plan to start and end at home. You must go to Home Depot, Stop & Shop, Walmart, and the post office. Distance in miles, between any two of these locations is given in the table. Create a complete weighted graph that models the information given in the table. Use the Brute Force Method to find the shortest route to run your errands and return home. What is the minimum distance you can travel? Use Kruskal's Algorithm to find the minimum spanning tree for the following graph. Draw the solution and give the minimum weight.

Apply traveling salesman algorithm to find a route with the least total airfare that visits each of the cities in this graph excluding Denver and starting from San Francisco, where the weight on an edge is the least price available for a flight between the two cities. a. Write the Adjacency Matrix. b. Construct a tree showing all the possibilities with their minimum costs. c. Use part (b) to find the best route with its cost.
