by giving the constants (c, n0) and arguing that your constants hold as n goes to infinity by either "chaining up", "chaining down", carefully treating the inequality as an equality and doing some algebra, or even weak induction.
Also, what is the minimum val4ue for c (in the definition of O() ) forj this problem and is it an exclusive or inclusive minimum/bound.
