Problem 3.
Consider the following recurrence.
T(n) = {(n) = 37(n
T(n) = 3T(n/2) + n²
if n=1
otherwise.
(a) Solve this recurrence exactly by the method of substitution. You may assume n is a
power of 2.
(b) Solve it using the recursion tree method.
Consider the recurrence T(n).
r(n) = { T[{\√~]) + d
if n ≤ 4
([√n])+d_ifn>4
Use the recursion tree technique or repeated substitution to come up with a good
guess of a tight bound on this recurrence and then prove your tight bound correct with
induction or another technique.
for the following problem we need to use a recursion tree. so we can determine an asymptotic upper bound on therecurrence T(n) = 3T(n/2) + n. the substitution method must be used to solve.
