Given below is the odd-number function. Which of the following are equal to O(20)? Check all that apply. O(n) = 2n - 1 A. O(19) + 1 B. The twentieth odd number C. 39 D. 19

OpenStudy (phi):

The first step. If you are given O(n) = 2n - 1 to find O(20) replace n with 20 in the formula. what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B A??

OpenStudy (phi):

replace n with 20 in the formula. what do you get?

OpenStudy (phi):

replace n with 20 in the formula in 2*n - 1 ^ | change the n to 20 and do the arithmetic what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

19

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and B?

OpenStudy (phi):

How did you get 19?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

20 -1

OpenStudy (phi):

the formula says O(n) = 2n - 1 2n-1 means multiply n by 2 then subtract 1 replace n with 20 in the formula 2*n - 1 ^ | change the n to 20 and do the arithmetic

OpenStudy (phi):

If you don't do anything except change n to 20 what do you get ? 2*n - 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Dude i give up

OpenStudy (anonymous):
