Consider the Quicksort algorithm. Suppose there is a procedure for finding a pivot element that splits the list into two sub-lists each of which contains at least one-fifth of the elements. Let T(n) be the number of comparisons required to sort n elements. Then
(A)
T(n) <= 2T(n/5) + n
(B)
T(n) <= T(n/5) + T(4n/5) + n
(C)
T(n) <= 2T(4n/5) + n
(D)
T(n) <= 2T(n/2) + n
