    The degrees of various vertices in a graph, G, are given by deg(A)=1, deg(B)=2, deg(C)=3, deg(D)=5, deg(E)=x.

    1. Show that x is odd.

      [2]

    Suppose that the total number of edges is 10.

    1. Find x.

    The graph above shows train connections to towns around a city, E.

    1. Show that the graph is Hamiltonian.

      [2]
    2. Show that the graph has an Eulerian cycle.

    The graph above shows the cost of each train line. A postman has to deliver mail to all cities.

    1. By using the deleted vertex algorithm, deleting F, find a lower bound for the amount of money that the postman has to pay if he takes the train.

      [5]
    2. By using the nearest neighbor algorithm, starting at F, find an upper bound for the amount of money that the postman has to pay if he takes the train.

      [3]
    3. Explain how one might improve these upper and lower bounds.
