Question 1
The minimum number of edges of a graph containing n vertices and c connected components is
A
n-c
B
c
C
c(n-1)
D
n/c
Question 1 Explanation: 
We have to find a minimum no. of edges. So for c connected components let’s assume c-1 independent vertices which are also c-1 components and remaining 1 component will contain n-(c-1) vertices or n-c+1 vertices. So for minimum no. of edges will be no. of vertices in the single component (which contains n-c+1 vertices) -1, which is
(n-c+1)-1 = n-c
Correct Answer: A
