Consider the quicksort algorithm. Suppose there is a procedure for finding a pivot element which splits the list into two sub-lists, one of which contains one-fifth of the elements and the remaining elements are contained in the other sub-list. Let T(n) be the number of comparisons required to sort n elements. Then:
