Compute the minimum cost spanning tree illustrating the intermediate steps. 6 32 5 1 4 7 3 21 47 8 9 1327 22 30 29 31 Additional question Once the solution has been found, determine for arcs (5, 7) and (3, 6), separately, what is the cost coe cient interval that guarantees that the optimal solution remains unchanged. Justify the answer. 2. Consider the maximum flow problem instance represented in the figure below.

Derive the Gomory cut(s) with respect to the optimal solution of the linear relaxation. Give the geometrical representation of the cut(s). 1 Foundations of Operations Research Exam 7/2/2017 Second part: Open book Total score: 10 pts. 1.
