(Discrete Math) Read the following combinatorial proof, and write a theorem that we proved. Explain it in details.
We count the number of k+1 element subsets of [n+1]. On one hand, it is clearly C(n+1,k+1). On the other hand, we can count these subsets in two steps. First we count the subsets that contain the number n+1. Since have to choose another k elements from {1,2,...,n} for it to make a k+1-element set, the number of these is C(n,k). Then we count the subsets that do not contain the number n+1. This time, we have to choose all k+1 elements from {1,2,...,n}. The number of these is C(n,k+1).

Problem 8. (Heap Top-k) Prof Dubious has made the following claim, and has provided a proof Claim. Let n and k be positive integers such that 2*-1n. In amax-heap H of n elements, the top 21 elements are in the first k layers of the heap. Proof. Since is a max-heap, each node in H must satisfy the heap property, i.e., if H, is an element of H with at least one child then Hmaxchldren(H)). We know that every subtree...
