Achievement with Excellence: Apply network methods, using extended abstract thinking, in solving problems. introduction Each day, the coffee truck owner drives to nine different locations to sell coffees. He needs a depot where he can park the van and where he can store extra supplies. The depot needs to be at one of the nine locations. The map (Resource 1) shows the nine locations. The table (Resource 2) shows the distances (in metres) along the roads linking the locations. task The coffee truck is currently at the beach and they urgently need to get back to the dairy. What route do you recommend the driver take to get there? Justify your recommendation. The van driver would like to be able to drive to all nine of the locations each day, to sell his coffee, traveling along every road, but not covering a road more than once. Investigate to determine whether or not this is possible. The driver wants to know the minimum distance that connects all nine locations. Investigate to find this minimum distance. Make a recommendation to the driver about the best place to have the depot.
