Operating System  (OS) is the answer.

An application runs in/on an OS.  It is not the OS itself. Like Word or Chrome are applications. 

Systems is too generic and not specific enough to mean anything in this context.  Throw away answer.

Network Operating System does not 'usually' run on a hard drive but on memory chips in things like routers, wireless access points and switches that move network traffic.

grigory [225]

Answer: E. Never

geometric average return can NEVER exceed the arithmetic average return for a given set of returns

Explanation:

The arithmetic average return is always higher than the other average return measure called the geometric average return. The arithmetic return ignores the compounding effect and order of returns and it is misleading when the investment returns are volatile.

Arithmetic returns are the everyday calculation of the average. You take the series of returns (in this case, annual figures), add them up, and then divide the total by the number of returns in the series. Geometric returns (also called compound returns) involve slightly more complicated maths.

Suppose that the splits at every level of quicksort are in the proportion 1 − α to α where 0 < α ≤ 1/2 is a constant. Show th
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

The minimum depth occurs for the path that always takes the smaller portion of the

split, i.e., the nodes that takes α proportion of work from the parent node. The first

node in the path(after the root) gets α proportion of the work(the size of data

processed by this node is αn), the second one get (2)

so on. The recursion bottoms

out when the size of data becomes 1. Assume the recursion ends at level h, we have

(ℎ) = 1

h = log 1/ = lg(1/)/ lg = − lg / lg

Maximum depth m is similar with minimum depth

(1 − )() = 1

m = log1− 1/ = lg(1/)/ lg(1 − ) = − lg / lg(1 − )

The divBySum method is intended to return the sum of all the elements in the int array parameter arr that are divisible by the i
iragen [17]

Answer:

The complete method is as follows:

public static int divBySum(int[] arr, int num){        

     int sum = 0;

     for(int i:arr){

         if(i%num == 0)

         sum+=i;

     }

     return sum;

   }

Explanation:

As instructed, the program assumes that arr has been declared and initialized. So, this solution only completes the divBySum method (the main method is not included)

This line defines the method

public static int divBySum(int[] arr, int num){        

This line declares and initializes sum to 0

     int sum = 0;

This uses for each to iterate through the array elements

     for(int i:arr){

This checks if an array element is divisible by num (the second parameter)

         if(i%num == 0)

If yes, sum is updated

         sum+=i;

     }

This returns the calculated sum

     return sum;

   }
