11. A bus that picks up day-workers for farmers has established pickup points at several places. The table below lists the
distances (in miles) between the pickup points, measured along the only available routes. Starting at point D, use the
Greedy Algorithm to find a route that takes the bus to each pickup point once and returns to point D. Give the total
mileage for that route.

Pickup Point A B C D E
A — 8 12 9 —
B 8 — 8 16 18
C 12 8 — 16 8

13. A contest winner’s prize is a free round-trip airline ticket to any city in Europe, with an unlimited stay over. While
there, the contestant wants to travel to five other cities before returning to the original airport for the return flight home.
The table below shows the one-way airfares between the cities. Beginning with A, find a sequence of cities that can be
followed to give the lowest total airfare and give that airfare. Use the Edge-Picking Algorithm.

City A B C D E F
A — — $376 $358 $259 $369
