PLEASE HELP ME. kindly show all your work
1. Prove that∀k ∈ N, 1k + 2k + · · · + nk ∈ Θ(nk+1).
2. Suppose that the functions f1, f2, g1, g2 : N → R≥0 are such that f1 ∈ Θ(g1) and f2 ∈ Θ(g2).Prove that (f1 + f2) ∈ Θ(max{g1, g2}).
Here (f1 + f2)(n) = f1(n) + f2(n) and max{g1, g2}(n) = max{g1(n), g2(n)}.
3. Let n ∈ N \ {0}. Describe the largest set of values n for which you think 2n < n!. Use induction toprove that your description is correct.Here m! stands for m factorial, the product of first m positive integers.
4. Prove that log2 n! ∈ O(n log2 n).
Thank you. But please show all work and all steps
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.]

You can’t tell beforehand for any given problem instance whether it will run in polynomial or exponential time on either algorithm.

- Write a function linear_independence that takes a collection of vectors with integer entries (each written as a list), and returns True if this collection of vectors is linearly independent, and False otherwise. Examples: linear_independence([1,2]) should return True. linear_independence([1,3,7],[2,8,3],[7,8,1]) should returnTrue. linear_independence([1,3,7],[2,8,3],[7,8,1],[1,2,3]) should return False.arrow_forwardGiven is a strictly increasing function, f(x).
