Final answer:

True. For any complete graph with n vertices, the number of spanning trees is given by the formula n^(n-2).

Step-by-step explanation:

True. For any complete graph with n vertices, the number of spanning trees is given by the formula n^(n-2).

So, for n≥2, the complete graph K_n has n^(n-2) spanning trees.

For example, if n=3, then the complete graph K_3 has 3^(3-2) = 3 spanning trees.
