1. 53.33% U = p/(a*m) = 16/(10*3) =16/30 = 53.33% 


2. Ca=10 months / 10months = 1, Cp = 32 months / 16 months = 2 Tq= (16/3)*[(0.5333)^(sqrt(2*(3+1))-¬‐1)/(1-¬‐(0.5333))]*(1^2 + 2^2)/2= 9.0 months
T= Tq + p = Tq + 16 months = 25 months


3. p = p / a = 16 / 10 = 1.6

In its simplest form, amdahl's law maintains that if a given program would take one hour to run to completion with one processor
AlladinOne [14]
<span>20% is the maximum speed up possible for this program. For this problem, let's assign the time of 1 for the task when using a single processor. Now let's assume that we have an infinite number of processors available to handle the portion of the program that can be executed in parallel so that the execution time for that portion will be 0. That means that the total execution time with an infinite number of processors will be 1 * (0.80 + 0) = 1 * 0.80 = 0.80 So at best, the parallel program will take 80% of the time for the single threaded version. So the speed increase will be (1 - 0.80) / 1 = 0.20/1 = 0.20 = 20%</span>

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

In the United States, banks keep the entire value of all customer deposits in the bank vault to meet customer withdrawals. FALSE.

Banks keep only a portion of the customer deposits in the bank vault. A small portion is kept with the Fed called the Reserve Requirement.

Banks typically loan out a portion of customer deposits. TRUE.

Banks only loan out the portion of customer deposits that they did not leave with the Fed.

Bank runs occur when many customers attempt to withdraw deposits from a bank at the same time and the bank is unable to pay all customer withdrawals. TRUE.

When too many people try to withdraw from a bank, the bank might not meet these obligations because they loaned out money to people and those people were not yet due to pay back. This is a bank run.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) protects bank depositors from bank failure. TRUE.

The fractional reserve banking system requires all banks to keep the total value of customer deposits in their vaults to prevent bank runs. FALSE.

As explained in the first paragraph, the Fed requires that banks keep a portion of customer deposits with the Fed instead of the total value of customer deposits.
