 weights: The weights of the edges. Either a numeric vector or ‘NULL’.
          If it is null and the input graph has a ‘weight’ edge
          attribute then that will be used. If ‘NULL’ and no such
          attribute is present then the edges will have equal weights.

So yes, if the graph has a 'weight' edge attribute, then that is used
in these algorithms.
