Chapter 13, Problem 12CT
Decide whether the problem can be solved using Euler paths, Hamilton paths, or trees.
(a) A civil engineer needs to drive once over every road in a neighborhood to check for salt damage after an especially snowy winter.
(b) A group of friends goes to Epcot in Orlando on a 97 degree day and wants to visit 7 different attractions while doing the least possible amount of walking.
(c) A UPS driver has 22 deliveries to make before lunch and wants to find the most time-efficient route.
(d) Two roommates plan a spring break road trip. The plan is to visit friends at four different colleges then return home while driving the shortest distance.
(e) A police officer on patrol is ordered to drive down every street on the west end of town before returning to the station to clock out.
(f) When a new campus building is being planned, the IT team is asked to wire five computer classrooms on the fifth floor to the campus network using the least amount of network cable possible.

Strassel Investors buys real estate, develops it, and resells it for a profit. A new property is available, and Bud Strassel, the president and owner of Strassel Investors, believes if he purchases and develops this property, it can then be sold for $158,000. The current property owner has asked for bids
and stated that the property will be sold for the highest bid in excess of $100,000. Two competitors will be submitting bids for the property. Strassel does not know what the competitors will bid, but he assumes for planning purposes that the amount bid by each competitor will be uniformly distributed
between $100,000 and $148,000.
(a) What is the estimate of the probability Strassel will be able to obtain the property using a bid of $128,000? (Use at least 5,000 trials. Round your answer three decimal places.)
(b) How much does Strassel need to bid to be assured of obtaining the property?
$128,000
$138,000
$148,000
(c) Use the simulation model to compute the profit for each trial of…
Grear Tire Company has produced a new tire with an estimated mean lifetime mileage of 34,500 miles. Management also believes that the standard deviation is 4,500 miles and that tire mileage is normally distributed. To promote the new tire, Grear has offered to refund a portion of the purchase price
if the tire fails to reach 30,000 miles before the tire needs to be replaced. Specifically, for tires with a lifetime below 30,000 miles, Grear will refund a customer $1 per 100 miles short of 30,000. Construct a simulation model to answer the following questions. (Use at least 1,000 trials.)
(a) For each tire sold, what is the average cost of the promotion (in $)? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
(b) What is the probability that Grear will refund more than $25 for a tire? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Major League Baseball's World Series is a maximum of seven games, with the winner being the first team to win four games. Assume that the Atlanta Braves and the Minnesota Twins are playing in the World Series and that the first two games are to be played in Atlanta, the next three games at the
Twins' ballpark, and the last two games, if necessary, back in Atlanta. Taking into account the projected starting pitchers for each game and the home field advantage, suppose the probabilities of Atlanta winning each game are as follows.

The following table contains information on the number of RSVP guests for the 145 invitations. Unfortunately, the number of guests does not always correspond to the number of RSVPed guests. Based on her experience, the wedding planner knows it is extremely rare for guests to attend a wedding if they notified that they will not be attending. Therefore, the wedding planner will assume that no one from these 50 invitations will attend. The wedding planner estimates that the each of the 25 guests planning to come solo has a 74% chance of attending alone, a 20% chance of not attending, and a 6% chance of bringing a companion. For each of the 60 RSVPs who plan to bring a companion, there is a 90% chance that they will…arrow_forwardQ.2.4 There are twelve (12) teams participating in a pub quiz.
