A certain computer algorithm executes twice as many operations when it is run with an input of size k as when it is run with an input of size k - 1 (where k is an integer that is greater than 1). When the algorithm is run with an input of size 1, it executes seven operations. How many operations does it execute when it is run with an input of size 26? For each integer n 2 1, let s,, be the number of operations the algorithm executes when it is run with an input of size n. Then s, = 7 v and s = for each integer k2 1. Therefore, so, S, Sa, ... is a geometric sequence v y with constant multiplier , which is 2 V . So, for every integer n 2 0, s, = . It follows that for an input of size 26, the number of operations executed by the algorithm is s 25 , which equals 939.524.096
Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 miles away.
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experiments to set up the devices.
