Answer: a Explanation: We consider a hypothetical state space where every state has b successors. The root of the search tree generates b nodes at the first level, each of which generates b more nodes, for a total of b2 at the second level. Each of these generates b more nodes, yielding b3 nodes at the third level, and so on. Now suppose that the solution is at depth d. In the worst case, we would expand all but the last node at level d (since the goal itself is not expanded), generating bd+1- b nodes at level d+1.

90. A game can be formally defined as a kind of search problem with the following components: a) Initial State b) Successor Function c) Terminal Test d) All of the mentioned
Answer: d Explanation: The initial state includes the board position and identifies the player to move.
