iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

( n cards are there initially )

we pick out the first card in random it takes n-1 comparisons to figure out

its Equivalence card - n-1 steps

Two cards have been eliminated ( this leaves us with 2 and n-2 cards)

we pick out the 2nd card in random it takes n-3 comparisons to figure out

its Equivalence card - n-3 steps

we continue to do this.. till all cards are exhausted ( leaves us with 2

and n-4 cards again)

the last comparison will

have

- n-(n-3)

the sum of all these steps - (n-1) + (n-3) + (n-5) + .........+

(n-(n-3))

if you draw this in the form of a tree.

n - n

2

n-2 - n

2

n-4 - n-2

2

n-6 - n-4

2

n-8 - n- 6

the height of the tree will be log n , sum @ each level is at most n
