Byju's graph theory coloring question closed

Question

Graph G is obtained by adding vertex s to $K_{3,4}$ and making s adjacent to every vertex of $K_{3,4}$ .

The find the minimum number of colours required ot edge-colour is ?

Comments

Please also find vertex coloring.

Answer 1

For edge colourable the maximum no. of edges co- incides at S which are 3+4 = 7 because each vetex of k3,4 is connected to S according to Question

so atleast 7 distinct colours are required to edge colour K3,4

 

 

if it is asked for vertex coloring then

For Vertex coloring no. of colours required is 2 for each set (3,4) and 1 for adjacent vertex S

So, K3,4 with S as adjacent is 3 colourable
