1.Suppose that we first insert an element x into a binary search tree that does not already contain x. Suppose that we then immediately delete x from the tree. Will the new tree be identical to the original one? If yes, please justify your answers with no more that 3 sentences. If no, please give a counterexample. You may draw pictures if need

1.Suppose that we first insert an element x into a binary search tree that does not already contain x. Suppose that we then immediately delete x from the tree. Will the new tree be identical to the original one? If yes, please justify your answers with no more that 3 sentences. If no, please give a counterexample. You may draw pictures if need

 

2. Draw pictures to show how to construct a red-black tree by inserting the keys in the following sequence into an initially empty red-black tree: 8, 4,10, 9, 5, 17. Show each steps. Please use a double edge indicates a red pointer and single edge indicates a black pointer.

Expert Solution
Step 1

As per our guidelines, we are supposed to answer only one question. Kindly repost the remaining questions separately.

1.

No, the new tree will not be identical to the original one. When we insert an element into a binary search tree, it rearranges the tree structure to maintain the properties of a binary search tree. When we delete the element x, the tree rearranges itself again to maintain the properties. Hence, the tree after deletion will be different from the original tree.
