Find the Hamming pairwise distances among the following codewords: 00000, 10101, 01010

For each of the following claims, determine whether they are true or false. justify your determination (show your work). if the claim is false, state the correct asymptotic relationship as o, θ, or ω. unless otherwise specified, lg is log2.(a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) (h) (i) (j)n+1 =22n =2n =1 =ln2 n =n2 +2n−4 =33n = 2n+1 =√n = 10100 =o(n4) o(2n)θ(2n+7 ) o(1/n)θ(lg2 n) ω(n2 )θ(9n ) θ(2n lg n )o(lg n) θ(1)

The “rule of 72” is used to approximate the time required for prices to double due to inflation. if the inflation rate is r%, then the rule of 72 estimates that prices will double in 72/r years. for instance, at an inflation rate of 6%, prices double in about 72/6 or 12 years. write a program to test the accuracy of this rule. for each interest rate from 1% to 20%, the program should display the rounded value of 72/r and the actual number of years required for prices to double at an r% inflation rate. (assume prices increase at the end of each year.)
