Chapter 13.4, Problem 34E
As a new suburban neighborhood is being built, the local utility company needs to run underground wires to get power to all of the houses. It plans on four main distribution nodes that will in turn be connected to the main distribution center for that area. The distances in feet between the nodes and the distribution center are supplied in the table. It will cost $290 per foot to install the buried cable. Use a minimum spanning tree to connect all necessary locations at the lowest possible cost. What is the minimum cost?
