If G is a forest with n vertices and K connected components, then how many edges does G have?

If G is a forest with n vertices and K connected components, then how many edges does G have? Correct Answer n - K

Concept:

  • A group of trees is nothing but forest.


Explanation:

Example:

  • In above graph G there are 3 tress, k=3 and total 6 nodes, n=6 so if we subtract k from n then we will get number of edges equal to 3.
  • General formula to get total number of edges will be n – k


Hence option 2 is the correct answer.

A small and medium enterprise imports two components A and B from Taiwan and China respectively and assembles them with other components to form a toy. Components A contributes to 10% of production cost while components B contributes to 20% of production cost. Usually the company sells this toy at 20% above the production cost. Due to increase in the raw material and labour cost in both the countries ,component A became 20% costlier and components B became 40% costlier. Owing to these reasons the company increased its selling price by 15%. Considering that cost of other components does not change. What will be the profit percentage if the toy is sold at the new price?
