Chapter 5, Problem 62E
Consider the following game. You are given N vertices and are required to build a graph by adding edges connecting these vertices. Each time you add an edge you must pay $1. You can stop when the graph is connected.
a. Describe the strategy that will cost you the least amount of money.
b. What is the minimum amount of money needed to build the graph? (Give your answer in terms of N.)

south of west.
Rylee's car is stuck in the mud. Roman and Shanice come along in a truck to help pull her out. They attach
one end of a tow strap to the front of the car and the other end to the truck's trailer hitch, and the truck
starts to pull. Meanwhile, Roman and Shanice get behind the car and push. The truck generates a
horizontal force of 377 lb on the car. Roman and Shanice are pushing at a slight upward angle and generate
a force of 119 lb on the car. These forces can be represented by vectors, as shown in the figure below. The
angle between these vectors is 20.2°. Find the resultant force (the vector sum), then give its magnitude
and its direction angle from the positive x-axis.
