\begin{homeworkProblem}
Give an appropriate positive constant \(c\) such that \(f(n) \leq c \cdot
g(n)\) for all \(n > 1\).
\begin{enumerate}
\item \(f(n) = n^2 + n + 1\), \(g(n) = 2n^3\)
\item \(f(n) = n\sqrt{n} + n^2\), \(g(n) = n^2\)
\item \(f(n) = n^2 - n + 1\), \(g(n) = n^2 / 2\)
\end{enumerate}
\textbf{Solution}
We solve each solution algebraically to determine a possible constant
\(c\).
\\
\textbf{Part One}
\[
\begin{split}
n^2 + n + 1 &=
\\
&\leq n^2 + n^2 + n^2
\\
&= 3n^2
\\
&\leq c \cdot 2n^3
\end{split}
\]
Thus a valid \(c\) could be when \(c = 2\).
\\
\textbf{Part Two}
\[
\begin{split}
n^2 + n\sqrt{n} &=
\\
&= n^2 + n^{3/2}
\\
&\leq n^2 + n^{4/2}
\\
&= n^2 + n^2
\\
&= 2n^2
\\
&\leq c \cdot n^2
\end{split}
\]
Thus a valid \(c\) is \(c = 2\).
\\
\textbf{Part Three}
\[
\begin{split}
n^2 - n + 1 &=
\\
&\leq n^2
\\
&\leq c \cdot n^2/2
\end{split}
\]
Thus a valid \(c\) is \(c = 2\).

\begin{homeworkProblem}
Let \(\Sigma = \{0, 1\}\). Construct a DFA \(A\) that recognizes the
language that consists of all binary numbers that can be divided by 5.
\\
Let the state \(q_k\) indicate the remainder of \(k\) divided by 5. For
example, the remainder of 2 would correlate to state \(q_2\) because \(7
\mod 5 = 2\).

\textbf{Justification}
\\
Take a given binary number, \(x\). Since there are only two inputs to our
state machine, \(x\) can either become \(x0\) or \(x1\). When a 0 comes
into the state machine, it is the same as taking the binary number and
multiplying it by two. When a 1 comes into the machine, it is the same as
multipying by two and adding one.
\\
Using this knowledge, we can construct a transition table that tell us
where to go:
\begin{table}[ht]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{c || c | c | c | c | c}
& \(x \mod 5 = 0\)
& \(x \mod 5 = 1\)
& \(x \mod 5 = 2\)
& \(x \mod 5 = 3\)
& \(x \mod 5 = 4\)
\\
\hline
\(x0\) & 0 & 2 & 4 & 1 & 3 \\
\(x1\) & 1 & 3 & 0 & 2 & 4 \\
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
Therefore on state \(q_0\) or (\(x \mod 5 = 0\)), a transition line should
go to state \(q_0\) for the input 0 and a line should go to state \(q_1\)
for input 1. Continuing this gives us the Figure~\ref{fig:multiple5}.

\begin{homeworkProblem}
Suppose we would like to fit a straight line through the origin, i.e.,
\(Y_i = \beta_1 x_i + e_i\) with \(i = 1, \ldots, n\), \(\E [e_i] = 0\),
and \(\Var [e_i] = \sigma^2_e\) and \(\Cov[e_i, e_j] = 0, \forall i \neq
j\).
\\
\part
Find the least squares esimator for \(\hat{\beta_1}\) for the slope
\(\beta_1\).
\\
\solution
To find the least squares estimator, we should minimize our Residual Sum
of Squares, RSS:
\[
\begin{split}
RSS &= \sum_{i = 1}^{n} {(Y_i - \hat{Y_i})}^2
\\
&= \sum_{i = 1}^{n} {(Y_i - \hat{\beta_1} x_i)}^2
\end{split}
\]
By taking the partial derivative in respect to \(\hat{\beta_1}\), we get:
\[
\pderiv{
\hat{\beta_1}
}{RSS}
= -2 \sum_{i = 1}^{n} {x_i (Y_i - \hat{\beta_1} x_i)}
= 0
\]
This gives us:
\[
\begin{split}
\sum_{i = 1}^{n} {x_i (Y_i - \hat{\beta_1} x_i)}
&= \sum_{i = 1}^{n} {x_i Y_i} - \sum_{i = 1}^{n} \hat{\beta_1} x_i^2
\\
&= \sum_{i = 1}^{n} {x_i Y_i} - \hat{\beta_1}\sum_{i = 1}^{n} x_i^2
\end{split}
\]
Solving for \(\hat{\beta_1}\) gives the final estimator for \(\beta_1\):
\[
\begin{split}
\hat{\beta_1}
&= \frac{
\sum {x_i Y_i}
}{
\sum x_i^2
}
\end{split}
\]
\pagebreak
\part
Calculate the bias and the variance for the estimated slope
\(\hat{\beta_1}\).
\\
\solution
For the bias, we need to calculate the expected value
\(\E[\hat{\beta_1}]\):
\[
\begin{split}
\E[\hat{\beta_1}]
&= \E \left[ \frac{
\sum {x_i Y_i}
}{
\sum x_i^2
}\right]
\\
&= \frac{
\sum {x_i \E[Y_i]}
}{
\sum x_i^2
}
\\
&= \frac{
\sum {x_i (\beta_1 x_i)}
}{
\sum x_i^2
}
\\
&= \frac{
\sum {x_i^2 \beta_1}
}{
\sum x_i^2
}
\\
&= \beta_1 \frac{
\sum {x_i^2 \beta_1}
}{
\sum x_i^2
}
\\
&= \beta_1
\end{split}
\]
Thus since our estimator's expected value is \(\beta_1\), we can conclude
that the bias of our estimator is 0.
\\
For the variance:
\[
\begin{split}
\Var[\hat{\beta_1}]
&= \Var \left[ \frac{
\sum {x_i Y_i}
}{
\sum x_i^2
}\right]
\\
&=
\frac{
\sum {x_i^2}
}{
\sum x_i^2 \sum x_i^2
} \Var[Y_i]
\\
&=
\frac{
\sum {x_i^2}
}{
\sum x_i^2 \sum x_i^2
} \Var[Y_i]
\\
&=
\frac{
1
}{
\sum x_i^2
} \Var[Y_i]
\\
&=
\frac{
1
}{
\sum x_i^2
} \sigma^2
\\
&=
\frac{
\sigma^2
}{
\sum x_i^2
}
\end{split}
\]

\begin{homeworkProblem}
Prove a polynomial of degree \(k\), \(a_kn^k + a_{k - 1}n^{k - 1} + \hdots
+ a_1n^1 + a_0n^0\) is a member of \(\Theta(n^k)\) where \(a_k \hdots a_0\)
are nonnegative constants.
\begin{proof}
To prove that \(a_kn^k + a_{k - 1}n^{k - 1} + \hdots + a_1n^1 +
a_0n^0\), we must show the following:
\[
\exists c_1 \exists c_2 \forall n \geq n_0,\ {c_1 \cdot g(n) \leq
f(n) \leq c_2 \cdot g(n)}
\]
For the first inequality, it is easy to see that it holds because no
matter what the constants are, \(n^k \leq a_kn^k + a_{k - 1}n^{k - 1} +
\hdots + a_1n^1 + a_0n^0\) even if \(c_1 = 1\) and \(n_0 = 1\). This
is because \(n^k \leq c_1 \cdot a_kn^k\) for any nonnegative constant,
\(c_1\) and \(a_k\).
\\
Taking the second inequality, we prove it in the following way.
By summation, \(\sum\limits_{i=0}^k a_i\) will give us a new constant,
\(A\). By taking this value of \(A\), we can then do the following:
\[
\begin{split}
a_kn^k + a_{k - 1}n^{k - 1} + \hdots + a_1n^1 + a_0n^0 &=
\\
&\leq (a_k + a_{k - 1} \hdots a_1 + a_0) \cdot n^k
\\
&= A \cdot n^k
\\
&\leq c_2 \cdot n^k
\end{split}
\]
where \(n_0 = 1\) and \(c_2 = A\). \(c_2\) is just a constant. Thus the
proof is complete.
\end{proof}
