5. Consider the trisection method, which is analogous to bisection except that at each iteration, it creates 3 intervals instead of 2 and keeps one interval where there is a sign change. (c) The main computational cost of bisection and trisection is function evalu- ations. The other operations it does are a few additions and divisions, but the evaluation of most functions, including sin, cos, exp, etc. are much more costly. Based on this information, explain why you would never want to use trisection over bisection.

For the problems given below, determine whether it is more efficient to use a divide and conquer strategy or a dynamic programming strategy, explain your reason. Give the recursion formula for each. (3*4=12) Find the average of a given set of unsorted numbers. Find whether there is a subset of integers in a given set that adds up to 8 Given a set of numbers, can they set be partitioned into two groups such that the sum of each group is equal; i.e 1,5,11,5 can be partitioned to 1,5,5 and 11
describe the 2-approximation algorithm's Python source code. The majority of the code is concerned with removing the randomly chosen edge and its surrounding edges from the graph. The incidence matrix B(G) from the graph G is the input to the procedure VC Approx. Every iteration, the endpoints of a chosen edge are added to the list V C and the unmarked edges are kept in the list edges. We input the graph's incidence matrix B and then iterate through the rows of B to find edges that are near the matched edge. The main while loop iterates until this list is empty after each found edge is removed from the list edges.
I need both java code and an explanation that includes the following: -A basic description/explanation of the algorithm -A reasoning for the time complexity of the algorithm Given is a sequence a1, a2, . . . , an of numbers. We say that its subsequence aj1 , aj2 , . . . , ajk , where 1 ≤ j1 < j2 < . . . < jk ≤ n, is kind-of-increasing, if for every three consecutive elements in this subsequence, the average of the first two elements is smaller than the third element. Formally, (aji+aji+1)/2 < aji+2 holds for every i ∈ {1, 2, . . . , k−2}. Design an O(n3) algorithm that finds the length of a longest kind-of-increasing subsequence of a1, . . . , an.
Give a clear description of an efficient algorithm for finding the k smallest elements of a very large n-element vector. Compare its running time with that of other plausible ways of achieving the same result, including that of applying k times your solution for part (a). [Note that in part (a) the result of the function consists of one element, whereas here it consists of k elements. As above, you may assume for simplicity that all the elements of the vector are different.]
The function below has the recursive relation T(x,y) = 2T(y/2)+O(1) when x,y>0Knowing these information, find the following: 1) The worst-case time complexity of the function2) The worst-case auxiliary space complexity of the function3) Explanation as to how the time complexity of the function can be improved without using multiplication operations.
Computer Science Prove that the set M = {x ∈ R: x 2 = 2a3 b , a ∈ N, b ∈ N} is countably infinite. Your solution should either give a bijective function f : N → M or give pseudo-code of a program that prints all the values of such a function, in the following format (in this case you don’t have to define f explicitly, but need to also show the first five lines of output): 0: element of M 1: another element of M 2: yet another element of M
9. Is the following statement TRUE or FALSE? If it is TRUE, prove it, and if it is FALSE, provide a counter-example.If f: S→T is a function, where |S| > |T| (and both are finite sets), then there exist elements s1 and s2 in S such that fs1()=fs2()

Give a loop invariant that accurately relates the present values of, r, s, x, and y.Look at the GCD loop property for a hint. This invariant is also true when the calculation is between the first and second step of each iteration, in addition to being true each time the computation is at the top of the loop. Prove that your method creates and keeps the loop invariant as claimed.
There’s a famous puzzle intended to demonstrate the surprising growth of exponentiation sequences,sometimes called the “Wheat and chessboard problem”:If a chessboard were to have wheat placed upon each square such thatone grain was placed on the first square, two on the second, four on thethird, and so on (doubling the number of grains on each subsequentsquare), how many grains of wheat would be on the chessboard at thefinish?There are 64 squares on a chessboard. Write a program that uses a for loop to calculate the answer
Prove or disprove:(a)∃ sets A,B ∀ functions f: A→B, f is a bijection. (b) if f : A → B is a function, C ⊆ A, and D ⊆ B, then f : C → D is always a function.[Note 1: one is true, the other is false.][Note 2: feel free to draw bubble-arrow pictures here, but make sure you explain what’s going on very carefully.]
