A network administrator wants to find the shortest loop to check 5 servers arranged in a star topology with a ring connection. The graph below shows the latency (ms). The central server is \(V\).
Use the Deleted Vertex Algorithm (deleting the central vertex \(V\)) to find a lower bound for the optimal tour.
