A.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation of binary representation:

  • From the given question, the binary value of “1/10” is represented by “0.000110011[0011]…….2”.
    • The portion of given brackets denotes the value “0011” repeated indefinitely.
    • Consider the value of “0.1” is first “23” bits of the sequence of the binary points.
      • That is “23” bits from “0.000110011[0011]…….2” is “0.00011001100110011001100”.
      • It is assumed as the “x” value.
  • Now computing the value of “0.1 – x” is shown below:
    • The binary value of “0.1” is “0.00011001100110011001100”.
    • The binary value of “x” is “0.00011001100110011001100”.
    • Determining the value of “0.1 – x” means.
      • The value of “x” is in negative. So, need to take 2’s complement

        Binary value of “x”: 0.00011001100110011001100

        1’s complement: 1...

B.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation of decimal representation:

  • From the given question, the binary value of “1/10” is represented by “0.000110011[0011]…….2”.
    • The portion of given brackets denotes the value “0011” repeated indefinitely.
    • Consider the value of “0.1” is first “23” bits of the sequence of the binary points.
      • That is “23” bits from “0.000110011[0011]…….2” is “0.00011001100110011001100”.
      • It is assumed as the “x” value...

C.

Explanation of Solution

Time calculation of difference between the actual time and the time computed by the software:

From the given question, the system had been running for around “100” hours. So, from the part B, the time computed by the software is “9.54 × 10-8 × 100 hours”.

In general, 1 hour =  60 × 60 seconds. Then 9.54 × 10-8 × 100 × 60×60

From the given question, the counter is increment at “0

D.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation of prediction:

From the given question, a Scud travels at around 2,000 meters per second.

From the part C, the time is “0.343” seconds...

Problem 3 (#2.1.32).Explain why (A×B)×(C×D)and A×(B×C)×D are not the same
3. The diagram below shows the main land routes for vehicular traffic between points A and G in a city. The figures in the arcs represent the cost of traveling between each pair of nodes.   a) Manually apply Dijkstra's algorithm to find the cheapest route between A and G (visited nodes and total distance). b) Formulate a linear programming problem in extended form, to determine the shortest route to travel from A to G. Do not use subscripts, name 14 variables, for example XFE would be the variable that indicates that the arc from F to E is used. c) If there is a fixed cost for visiting each node, modify the formulation of the problem to include said fixed cost in the objective function, and the variables and restrictions that are required.     NODE A B C D E F G FIXED COST 25 18 32 20 28 18 34
Problem 4 Discrete Mathematics.Combinations and Permutations.  (5,10,10): Soccer A local high school soccer team has 20 players. However, only 11 players play at any given time during a game. In how many ways can the coach choose 11 players To be more realistic, the 11 players playing a game normally consist of 4 midfielders, 3 defend­ ers, 3 attackers and 1 goalkeeper. Assume that there are 7 midfielders, 6 defenders, 5 attackers and 2 goalkeepers on the team 2. In how many ways can the coach choose a group of 4 midfielders, 3 defenders, 3 attackers and 1 goalkeeper? 3. Assume that one of the defenders can also play attacker. Now in how many ways can the coach choose a group of 4 midfielders, 3 defenders, 3 attackers and 1 goalkeeper?
