Chapter 7, Problem 36E

The 4 by 5 grid shown in Fig. 7-37 represents a network of streets (4 blocks by 5 blocks) in a small subdivision. For landscaping purposes, it is necessary to get water to each of the corners by laying down a system of pipes along the streets. The cost of laying down the pipes is $40, 000 per mile, and each block of the grid is exactly half a mile long. Find the cost of the cheapest network of pipes connecting all the corners of the subdivision. Explain your answer. (Hint: First determine the number of blocks in the MST.)
