Problem 3[4+4=8 marks]
Are the following two statements true or false? If a statement is true, provide a formal
proof based on the definitions of the order notations. If a statement is false, provide a
counterexample and explain it. Functions f and g are positive functions.
a) If h(n)=(1) and f(n)=(g(n), then f(n)=(g(n)\times h(n)). We assume that
h(n)>0 for all n.
b) If f1(n)= O(g1(n)), f2(n)=(g2(n)) then f1(n) f2(n)= O(g1(n) g2(n)). We
assume that f1(n) f2(n)>=0 and g1(n) g2(n)>=0 for all n.
