Learning Task 7- GROWTH OF FUNCTIONS
1. Big-O Notation
Let fand g be functions from the set of integers or the set of real numbers to the set ofreal numbers.
We say that f ( x) is 0 (g (x)), read as "f(x) is big-oh of g (x)", if there are constants C and k
such that | f (x)|sCig(x)|whenever x>k.
(a) Show that f(x) = x² + 2x + 1 is 0(x*)
Solution:
When x>1;
x2
+
< x? (1+
= 4x2
So, for x > 1,x2 + 2x +1< 4x?
From the definition 0 s f(x) s cg(x) for x21
Hence, for No = 1; c=4: and g(x)=x2
for No = 2; c=3: and g(x)=x2
for No = 3; c=2; and g(x)=x?
Therefore, x? + 2x+1= 0(x2)
O(g(x)) = {f(x)|there exist positive constant c and No such that 0s f(x) s cg(x) for all x2No}
2. Show that 7x2 is O(x³).
3. Suppose there are x number of boxes to be delivered to x number of household that is 2km
apart, what is the distance travelled by the transport delivery service?

apait,
4. In number 3, suppose that each boxes must be coming from the Warehouse and the transport
delivery service must need to back-and-port to pick-up each box. What is the distance
travelled by the transport delivery service?
5. Evaluate the methods used in number 3 and number 4 method of delivery. If the function x2 is
considered as the dominant term for each method used.
6. What will happen to the term 2x + 5 of the original function x? + 2x + 5 when compared to the
dominant term which is x?. Show a simple analysis for this function.
