Hash table contains tablesize positions

Reference no: EM13875776

If a hash table contains tablesize positions and n records currently occupy the table, the load factor lf is defined as n/tablesize. Suppose a hash function uniformly distributes n keys over the tablesize positions of the table and lf is the load factor of the table. Show that upon insertion, (n-1)*lf/2 of the keys in the table collide with a previously entered key.
