Chapter 4, Problem 41C

Explanation of Solution

Given:

It is given that logbf(n) is Θ(logf(n)).

Big-theta notation:

The function is referred as big-theta only if it is not much worse but also not better than f.

Θ(f(n))=Ο(f(n))Ω(f(n))

Proof:

It is given that the function is logbf(n). In this function, use the identity of log that translates logb to a logarithm of base 2
