1. Answer the following with respect to red-black trees.

a. Show the red-black trees that result after successively inserting the keys 41, 38, 31, 12, 19, 8 into an initially empty red-black tree. Now show the red-black trees that result from the successive deletion of the keys in the order 8, 12, 19, 31, 38, 41.

b. Show the red-black trees that result after successively inserting the keys 41, 38, 31, 12, 19, 8 into an initially empty red-black tree.

c. Show that the longest simple path from a node x in a red-black tree to a descendant leaf has length at most twice that of the shortest simple path from node x to a descendant leaf.

d. Suppose that a node x is inserted into a red-black tree and then is immediately deleted from the tree. Is the resulting red-black tree the same as the initial red-black tree? Justify your answer.

e. What is the largest possible number of internal nodes in a red-black tree with black-height k? What is the smallest possible number?
