7 LESSON 1 Introduction to Networks Exploratory Challenge 1 one classic math puzzle is the Seven Bridges of Königsberg problem which laid the foundation for networks and graph theory. In the 18th century in the town of Königsberg, Germany, a favorite pastime was walking along the Pregel River and strolling over the town s seven bridges... A question arose: Is it possible to take a walk and cross each bridge only once? Source: Merian-Erben, 1652 You will need: highlighters 1. Work with your partner to devise a path that crosses each bridge only once. You may draw on the map above. 2. How many solutions did your class find? 59

8 540 Module 2 Solving Equations and Systems of Equations Leonhard Euler, a Swiss mathematician, proved in 176 that it was impossible to cross each bridge exactly once and go over every one of the seven bridges. He created a simplified version of the map so that only the bridges and land masses were visible. He then simplified this even more by using dots or vertices for the land masses and segments or arcs or edges for the bridges as shown below. This final map is called a network. rook76/shutterstock.com Sources: Merian-Erben, 1652 and and Use highlighters to show the connection between each model above. For example, you could highlight one bridge and its corresponding arcs in the same color. The ideas behind networks are found in many fields and occupations. Two different network examples are shown below. World Map with Global Technology Network Zsolt Biczo/Shutterstock.com

Exploratory Challenge 2 In this exploration, your group will create your own network based on criteria about the bus routes to and from four cities. 5. Work with your group to draw a network for the bus routes in the space below. Be sure your finished network satisfies ALL the conditions for each city. Network Conditions The City 1 buses have routes to City 2 and City. The City 2 buses have one route to City 4. Network Conditions The City buses have routes to City 2 and City 4. There is no City 4 bus routes.

10 542 Module 2 Solving Equations and Systems of Equations The diagram you created in the Exercise 5 may have looked something like this: This is a vertex of the graph. This is an edge of the graph. 6. This is a called a directed graph. Why do you think it has this name? The routes from one city to another are edges on the graph and the cities are vertices. 7. How many ways can you travel from City 1 to City 4? Explain how you know. 8. What about these bus routes doesn t make sense?

11 Unit 4+ Networks & Matrices Lesson 1 Introduction to Networks 54 It turns out there was an error in printing the first route map. An updated network diagram showing the bus routes that connect the four cities is shown below. Arrows on both ends of an edge indicate that buses travel in both directions (bidirectional). 9. How many ways can you reasonably travel from City 4 to City 1 using the route map above? Explain how you know. A rival bus company offers more routes connecting these four cities as shown in the network diagram in at the right. Discussion 10. What might the loop at City 1 represent? 11. What might be difficult about describing the path from City 1 to City 4 with this diagram?

12 544 Module 2 Solving Equations and Systems of Equations To better analyze the different paths from one city to another, mathematicians often label each path. Because there are multiple routes to each city, we ll label the different routes with letters to distinguish one from another. In that way you can distinguish the path from City 1 to City 2 using Route A, Route B or Route C. 12. How many ways can you travel from City 1 to City 4 if you want to stop in City 2 and make no other stops? 1. How many possible ways are there to travel from City 1 to City 4 without repeating a city? Discussion As a transportation network grows, these diagrams become more complicated, and keeping track of all of the information can be challenging. People that work with complicated networks use computers to manage and manipulate this information. 14. What challenges did you encounter as you tried to answer Exercises 12 and 1? 15. How might we present the possible routes in a more organized manner?

13 Unit 4+ Networks & Matrices Lesson 1 Introduction to Networks 545 Lesson Summary A network is a collection of points, called vertices, and a collection of lines, called arcs or edges, connecting these points. A network is a graphical representation of a relationship between objects or ideas. This is a vertex of the graph. This is an edge of the graph. If the edges in a network are shown with arrows, then the network is called a directed network or directed graph. If no arrows appear in a network, then it is assumed that all edges are bidirectional. Directed Network Bidirectional Network

53 LESSON 6 Using Matrices to Solve Systems of Equations Opening Exercise In the last unit, you learned to solve systems of equations by graphing, and by the substitution and elimination methods. Systems of equations can also be solved using matrices. Before we use matrices, let s use a simple example to review solving systems of equations. 1. Solve the system x 2 y = 4 by graphing and then use either the substitution method or x + y = 5 the elimination method to verify your results. Graphing Method x 2y = 4 x + y = 5 Substitution or Elimination Method x 2y = 4 x + y = 5 The solution to x 2 y = 4 is x and y. x + y = 5 585

54 586 Module 2 Solving Equations and Systems of Equations To solve the system, x 2 y = 4, with matrices, we have to see this system as three matrices as x + y = 5 shown below. 1 2 x 4 i 1 y = 5 2. What does each matrix represent? 1 2 x. Determine 1 i. How does it relate to the original equation? y To solve for the matrix x 1 2, we need to use some type of operation to move the matrix y 1 to the other side of the equation. In algebra we use inverse operations to solve equations and we ll do the same here. We need the inverse of the matrix When you multiply a matrix, A, by its inverse, A 21, you get the identify matrix, I. AA 21 5 A 21 A 5 I Suppose A, X and B are matrices and AX 5 B, then AA 21 X 5 A 21 B. This gives I X 5 A 21 B or X 5 A 21 B

55 Unit 4+ Networks & Matrices Lesson 6 Using Matrices to Solve Systems of Equations 587 To determine the inverse, A 21, you ll need a special number called the determinant, and it is written as A or det A. If A = a b c d, then the determinant of A or det A is given by the formula A 5 ad 2 bc. 4. Find the determinant of the matrix To find the inverse you ll use the reciprocal of the inverse and then manipulate the matrix. The steps are given below. If A = a b c d and A 5 ad 2 bc, then A 1 = 1 A d c b a. 5. If the determinant of the matrix is 0, then no inverse exists. Why is that so? 6. What is the inverse of matrix 1 2 1? (We ll call this Matrix A from here on.)

56 588 Module 2 Solving Equations and Systems of Equations 7. Solve the system using A x 4 i 1 y = 5 Write A 21 here. And here. 1 2 x 4 i i i 1 y = 5 8. Does your answer agree with your work in Exercise 1? 9. Which method, graphing, substitution, elimination or matrices do you like best? Why?

57 Unit 4+ Networks & Matrices Lesson 6 Using Matrices to Solve Systems of Equations 589 We ve been looking at transportation problems throughout this unit, but most transportation problems are so complex that you need computers or graphing calculators to solve them.

63 UNIT 4+ Reference Lesson 1 Introduction to Networks Lesson Summary A network is a collection of points, called vertices, and a collection of lines, called arcs or edges, connecting these points. A network is a graphical representation of a relationship between objects or ideas. This is a vertex of the graph. This is an edge of the graph. If the edges in a network are shown with arrows, then the network is called a directed network or directed graph. If no arrows appear in a network, then it is assumed that all edges are bidirectional. Directed Network Bidirectional Network 595

64 596 Module 2 Solving Equations and Systems of Equations Lesson 2 Organizing Networks with Matrices Elements: The numbers in the matrix (e.g. a 12, a 1n and a mn ) are called the elements. The subscript defines where in the matrix the element is located. The first number determines the row and the second determines the column. Order or Dimension of the Matrix: A matrix having m rows and n columns is called a m n (m by n) matrix. A m n matrix has order m n. Square Matrix: An n n matrix is a square matrix since the number of rows is equal to the number of columns. Null or Zero Matrix: A null or zero matrix is a matrix with all elements zero. Lesson Summary A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers, symbols or expressions, arranged in rows and columns. The individual items in a matrix are called its elements. Complete the matrix for this network

71 UNIT 4+ Matrices Appendix Using the Graphing Calculator for Matrix Operations Basic Matrix Manipulation with a Graphing Calculator Department of Mathematics, Sinclair Community College, Dayton, OH Often, a matrix may be too large or too complex to manipulate by hand. For these types of matrices, we can employ the help of graphing calculators to solve them. We will cover a few of the most common graphing calculators used in education today. Throughout the directions, calculator buttons with arrows indicate the operation order. To learn more, or if your calculator is not demonstrated, consult the manufacturer s product manual. I will be using the TI 8 Plus graphing calculator for these directions. The TI 84 Plus family of graphing calculators is the upgraded version of the TI 8 Plus, with possible extra features in the menus demonstrated below. However, the older TI 8 and TI 82 graphing calculators have slightly different keyboard layouts than the TI 8 Plus, so these directions will not be entirely accurate for those calculators. For example, instead of pressing 2nd MATRIX4 to access the matrix menu, just press the dedicated MATRIX button. Inputting/Editing Matrices: 60
