(T/F) In a maximum flow problem, flow is permitted in both directions and is represented by a pair of arcs pointing in opposite directions

False

(T/F) When demand and supply are not equal in a transportation problem then the problem cannot be solved.

False

(T/F) A shortest path problem is required to have only a single destination.

True

(T/F) Maximum flow problems are concerned with maximizing the flow of goods through a distribution network

True

(T/F) The assignment problem is a special case of the transportation problem in which all supply and demand values equal one.

True

(T/F) The direction of flow in the shortest-route problem is always out of the origin node and into the destination node.

True

(T/F) Transportation problems are a special type of distribution-network problem.

True

(T/F) Transportation problems are concerned with distributing commodities from sources to destinations in such a way as to minimize the total distribution cost.
