(choose chapter or problem)

In Example 39, prove the following facts, where C(n) = the total number of nodes in the decision tree at level n, H(n) = the total number of nodes at level n resulting from an H toss, T(n) = the total number of nodes at level n resulting from a T toss.\(^1\)

a. C(n) = H(n) + T(n)

b. H(n) = T(n − 1)

c. T(n) = H(n − 1) + T(n − 1)

d. H(n) = H(n − 2) + T(n − 2)

e. C(n) = C(n − 2) + C(n − 1) for \(n \geq 3\)

f. C(n) = F(n + 1) where F(n) is the nth Fibonacci number
