functions: list in order from slowest- to fastest-growing

[paul2495]

hi please can someone help me out i need to order the following

10n + 5 + 2n
20n log n + 2345
3 log n + 5n2
100 log n + 5000

from the slowest growing function to the fastest growing function and to be fair i don't have a clue can some one help please

Can you plot:

y = log(n)

and

y = n * log(n)

and

y = n²

In what follows, I have completed the functional statements by adding their names, and have used subscripts to those names so we can tell the functions apart for the rest of this discussion.

I need to order the following:

. . . . .y₁ = 10n + 5 + 2n
. . . . .y₂ = 20n log n + 2345
. . . . .y₃ = 3 log n + 5n²
. . . . .y₄ = 100 log n + 5000

from the slowest-growing function to the fastest-growing function....

Is there a particular reason why you haven't simplified y₁ to be "12n + 5", since the "10n" and the "2n" are like terms?
