Use a recursion tree to determine a good asymptotic upper bound on therecurrence T(n) = 3T(n/2) + n. Use the substitution method to prove your answer.
Draw a recursion tree for a recurrence and use the Substitution Method to prove the solution. ( make a sample question )
Answer the following for the recurrence T(n) = T( n / 2 ) + T( n / 4 ) + n. (a) Use the Recursion Tree method to guess the upper-bound. (b) Prove by induction the upper-bound obtained in the previous question (problem a).
