Answer:
17/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Multiply the whole number part (2) by the denominator (8).
2 × 8 = 16
Step 2: Add the product from Step 1 (16) to the numerator (1).
16 + 1 = 17
Step 3: Write that result (17) above the denominator. So,
2 1/8
= 17/8
Please see attached image for the graph.
a.
Yes, it is mathematically possible because the
degree of vertices for P=3, T=3, M=2, C=4, and R=2 and in Euler’s theorem, the
graph has to be connected, which in this case it is and the number of vertices
in the graph whose vertices is odd, is 0 or 2. And in this case, we have 2 that
have a degree of vertices that are odd, therefore mathematically this is
possible for the driver. The route would be P > R > C > M > T > C
> P > T.
b.
<span>It is mathematically possible. The router would be P
> C > R > T > M > C > T. Essentially, you travel each road
once.

c.
The driver would use a Hamiltonian circuit. The route
would be J > R > A > C > V > M > T > P > J.
