Beth is writing out the steps using the "Shortest Route Algorithm". She just finished writing out all the routes for the third step. What route should she circle next?

Group of answer choices

AD; 8

ACE; 6

ACBE; 8

ACBD; 7

Explanation:

The "Shortest Route Algorigtm" aims to determine the most efficient or short route, when a several alternative pahtways can connect or be used to implement a solution.

A graph is drawn with the different nodes and paths that connect them. The distance between every pair of consecutive nodes is written.

The picture shows that for the step #1, there are, in principle, three routes: AB, AC, and AD.

AB must be discarded because it is not viable (a negative distance is not possible).

AC is more efficient than AD because the distance of AC is 3 and the distance of AD is 8. Thus AC is selected and circled.

To continue from AC, the possible routes are shown in step #2. They are ACB; 3 and ACE; 6.

ACB i s shorter, thus ACB is circled.

In step #3, the possible routes are ACBE; 8 and ACBD; 7. Thus, route ACBD is shorter, and it shall be circled.

The conclusion of the algorithm is that the route ACBD is the shoretes (most efficient).
