Chapter 13.3, Problem 27E
A Family Vacation The Ackermans live in Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania (T), and are planning their summer vacation. They wish to visit the following national parks: Acadia (A), Cuyahoga Valley (C), and Great Smoky Mountains (S). The approximate distances among these locations are as follows T to A is 582 miles. T to C is 342 miles, T to S is 663 miles, A to C is 917 miles, A to S is 1188 miles, and C to S is 521 miles.
- a. Represent this traveling salesman problem with a complete, weighted graph showing the distances along the edges.
- b. Use the brute force method to determine the shortest route for the Ackermans to visit each national park and return to their home.
- c. What is the minimum distance the Ackermans can travel?
