The sure-fire approach to this problem is to (first) list out all the possible 99-city itineraries (we assume Boulder is the first and last city); sort the list according to miles traveled; and select the cheapest route. How long is our list of possible 99-city itineraries? (Is this "sure-fire" method practical?) Provide an answer and describe your calculation.

Signal sets company contracts to deliver one hundred 52-inch plasma high-definition television sets to a new retail customer, tuner tv store, on may 1, with payment to be made on delivery. signal tenders delivery in its own truck. tuner's manager notices that some of the cartons have scrape marks. tuner's owner phones signal's office and asks whether the sets might have been damaged as they were being loaded. signal assures tuner that the sets are in perfect condition. tuner tenders signal a check, which signal refuses, claiming that the first delivery to new customers is always for cash. tuner promises to pay the cash within two days. signal leaves the sets with tuner, which stores them in its warehouse pending its "grand opening sale" on may 15. two days later, tuner's stocker opens some of the cartons and discovers that a number of the sets are damaged beyond ordinary repair. signal claims tuner has accepted the sets and is in breach by not paying on delivery. will signal succeed on these claims? explain.

The “rule of 72” is used to approximate the time required for prices to double due to inflation. if the inflation rate is r%, then the rule of 72 estimates that prices will double in 72/r years. for instance, at an inflation rate of 6%, prices double in about 72/6 or 12 years. write a program to test the accuracy of this rule. for each interest rate from 1% to 20%, the program should display the rounded value of 72/r and the actual number of years required for prices to double at an r% inflation rate. (assume prices increase at the end of each year.)
