Part a) is correct.

Part c) is wrong.

The reason c) is wrong is because you didn't update your improved matching.

Remember to update it then do the maximum matching algorithm.

so why in part A my answer was not there? cause there are alternatives

and for c) what do you mean by update maximum ?

Part A) is correct. I've done it twice now and nothing seems wrong.

You have to update your connections in the bipartite graph after an improved matching. So that once you do it a second time you will get a maximum matching.
