What is the weight of the minimum spanning tree for the graph above found using Kruskal's Algorithm? ​

What is the weight of the minimum spanning tree for the graph above found using Kruskals Algorithm class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

  39

Step-by-step explanation:

Kruskal's Algorithm has you add edges in order of weight, from least to greatest, excluding edges that form loops, until all nodes are connected.

__

Here, the edges have weights ...

  5 -- AD, CE

  6 -- DF

  7 -- AB, BE

  8 -- BC, EF

  9 -- BD, EG

  11 -- FG

  15 -- DE

The edges shown in bold are ones that can be added without creating loops. Their total weight is 5×2 +6 +7×2 +9 = 39.

The weight of the minimum spanning tree is 39.
