Consider the following statements:
P: There exists no simple, undirected and connected graph with 80 vertices and 77 edges.
Q: All vertices of an Euler graph are of even degree.
R: Every simple, undirected, connected and acyclic graph with 50 vertices has at least two vertices of degree one.
S: There exists a bipartite graph with more than ten vertices which is 2-colourable.
What is the number of correct statements?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D. 4

Explanation

P: a connected graph on 80 vertices needs ≥ 79 edges, so true. Q: an Eulerian (circuit) graph has all degrees even, true. R: a tree with ≥ 2 vertices has ≥ 2 leaves, true. S: every bipartite graph is 2-colourable, true. All 4.
