Assume you have a hash table of size 11. What is the final status of the hash table after inserting 10, 22, 31, 4, 15, 28, 17, 88, 59 (in that order) using the open addressing techniques linear probing with probe +1, quadratic probing, and double hashing to resolve collision? For double hashing, H2(x) = 7- (x % 7).

Step-by-Step Analysis
Question restatement:
- We have a hash table of size 11. We insert the keys in this order: 10, 22, 31, 4, 15, 28, 17, 88, 59. We are asked for the final status (i.e., the contents of the 11 buckets) after performing the insertions using three different open addressing collision resolution techniques: linear probing with probe +1, quadratic probing, and double hashing (with H2(x) = 7 - (x % 7)). If a bucket remains empty after all insertions, it should be shown as None.
- The provided interface shows, for Linear Probing +1, a list of 11 possible final values for each bucket (labeled 0 through 10); similarly for Quadratic Probing and for Double Hashing. The final answer field in the prompt gives a long sequence of candidates for each probe index across the three methods.
- Our task is to reason about each option, explaining why a given final arrangement could be correct or incorrect, for each of the three probing methods. We will not simply state which option is correct; instead, we will evaluate the viability of each listed option, explain the reasoning behind why a specific arrangement could be correct or incorrect, and point out potential inconsistencies or common pitfalls for each approach.
General approach to evaluating each option:
- Step 1: Understand the required final state format. The table has 11 buckets (indices 0–10). After inserting 9 keys, up to 2 buckets could remain empty if there were collisions forcing some to occupy later slots; in practice, there will be exactly 2 empty buckets if every insertion found an open slot or collided and rehashed to an empty slot, but depending on the probing scheme, the exact number of empty slots can vary. We should look for exactly the appearance of the inserted keys (10, 22, 31, 4, 15, 28, 17, 88, 59) and None in buckets that could not be filled due to, for example, a full table (not the case here, since we have 9 inserts and 11 slots).
- Step 2: For each probing method, recall the ......Login to view full explanationLog in for full answers
