You're correct; I didn't consider vertex 0 in the previous explanation. Let's redo the problem considering all vertices from 0 to 5.

Updated Solution:

Given the vertices $0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5$ and the directed weighted graph, we apply the Bellman-Ford algorithm starting from vertex $0$ to find the shortest paths to all other vertices.

Step 1: Initialization

• Set the distance to the source vertex $0$ as $0$.
• Set the distance to all other vertices as $\infty$.

Step 2: Relaxation Process

• We will iterate $V-1 = 6-1 = 5$ times over all the edges and update the distances.

Step 3: Perform the Relaxations

We go through each edge and update the distance to the destination vertex if a shorter path is found:

Iteration 1:

• $D[1]$ through edge $(0, 1)$: $D[1] = 0 + 6 = 6$.
• $D[4]$ through edge $(0, 4)$: $D[4] = 0 + 7 = 7$.
• $D[3]$ through edge $(1, 3)$: $D[3] = 6 + 5 = 11$.
• $D[4]$ through edge $(1, 4)$: No update, because current $D[4] = 7$ is less than $14$.
• $D[2]$ through edge $(1, 2)$: $D[2] = 6 + 8 = 14$.
• $D[5]$ through edge $(2, 5)$: $D[5] = 14 - 4 = 10$.
• $D[2]$ through edge $(3, 2)$: $D[2] = 11 - 2 = 9$.
• $D[5]$ through edge $(4, 5)$: No update, because $D[5] = 10$ is less than $16$.
• $D[3]$ through edge $(4, 3)$: $D[3] = 7 - 3 = 4$.
• $D[1]$ through edge $(5, 1)$: $D[1] = 10 + 2 = 12$ (but no update because $6 < 12$).
• $D[3]$ through edge $(5, 3)$: No update, because current $D[3] = 4$ is less than $17$.

Iteration 2:

• Only the edges that give better paths get updated:
  • Edge $(1, 3)$ does not lead to an update.
  • Edge $(2, 5)$ does not lead to an update.
  • Edge $(3, 2)$ improves $D[2] = 4 + 8 = 9$.

Repeat until all vertices are updated and no more improvements are possible.

Final Distances:

• $D[0] = 0$
• $D[1] = 6$
• $D[2] = 9$
• $D[3] = 4$
• $D[4] = 7$
• $D[5] = 10$

Correct Answer:

Based on the distances after running the Bellman-Ford algorithm, the correct option for the shortest paths from vertex 0 to all other vertices is:

$\boxed{(0, 6, 7, 4, 7, 10)}$

This matches the correct choice given in the options (the third option).

Tip:

When working with Bellman-Ford, carefully trace each edge's relaxation step by step to ensure all possible paths are considered, especially when dealing with negative weights.
