Write the definition of a function named quadratic that receives three double parameters a, b, c. If the value of a is 0 then th

e function prints the message "no solution for a=0" and returns. If the value of "b squared" – 4ac is negative, then the code prints out the message "no real solutions" and returns. Otherwise the function prints out the largest solution to the quadratic equation. The formula for the solutions to this equation can be found here: Quadratic Equation on Wikipedia.

Answer:

Following are the program in the C++ Programming Language.

#include <iostream> //header file

#include <cmath> //header file

using namespace std; //namespace

//define function

void quadratic (double a, double b, double c)

{

 double x,y; //set double type variables

 //check a==0

 if (a==0)

 { //then print message

   cout << "no solution for a=0";

 }

 //check if solution is less than 0

 else if ((b*b - 4*a*c) < 0)

 { //print message

   cout << "no real solutions";

 }

 //otherwise

 else

 {//solve the following quadratic equation

   x = (-b + sqrt( b*b - 4*a*c)) /(2*a);//in term of x

   y = (-b - sqrt(b*b - 4*a*c)) / (2*a);//in term of y

   //check x is greater than y

   if (x > y){

     cout<<x; //print the value of x

   }

   //otherwise

   else{

     cout<<y;//print the value of y

   }

 }

}

//define main method

int main() {

 //set double type variables and assign their value

 double x=10, y=50, z=-205;

 //call the function

 quadratic(x,y,z);

}

<u>Output</u>:

2.67204

Explanation:

Here, we define a function "quadratic" and pass three double data type variables i.e., "a", "b" and, "c" inside the function.

  • Set two double type variable i.e., "x", "y".
  • Set the if conditional statement and check the conditions is the variable a is equal to the 0 then, print the message or check another condition is the solution of the equation "b*b - 4*a*c" is less than 0, then print the message.
  • Otherwise, solve the quadratic equation in terms of the variable x or the variable y.
  • Again check the condition inside the else part is the variable x is greater than the variable y then, print the value of x otherwise print the value of y.

Finally, we define the main function inside it we set three double type variables i.e., "x", "y" and, "z" and initialize value 10, 50 and, -250 then, call the function and pass the variables x y z in its parameter.

GUI allows users to communicate with a device and see what they are doing onscreen.
zloy xaker [14]
The answer is true.
Gui basically is the thing that lets you see your desktop and what your doing. The G means graphics. Makes sense. If we didn't have GUI, then we would have to type in code to access documents, and do things on the computer. GUI changes that.

Explain the developments RAM since it was created in 1968 til today.
xenn [34]

Answer:

From DRAM to DDR4

Explanation:

RAM stands for <em>Random Access Memory.</em> In 1968, Mr. Robert Dennard at IBM's Watson Research obtained the patent for the one-transistor cell that will eventually substitute the old magnetic core memory allocated in computers of the time. By 1969 Intel released the TTL bipolar 64-bit SRAM (Static Random-Access Memory) as well as the ROM "Read Only Memory"; also in 1969 it evolved into "<em>Phase - change memory - PRAM - </em>". However this evolution was not commercialized, Samsung expressed its interest in developing it. In 1970 the first DRAM product was commercially available; it was developed by Intel. In 1971 it was patented EPROM; in 1978 George Perlegos developed EEPROM.

By 1983 a nice breakthrough happened with the invention of SIMM by Wang Labs. In 1993 Samsung came up with KM48SL2000 synchronous DRAM (SDRAM), this variation soon turned into an inductry standard.

In 1996 DDR began a revolution in the memory sector, then in 1999 RDRAM. Both DDR2 SDRAM. DDRR3 and XDR DRAM were commercialized. Finally in 2007 and 2014 the developments of DDR3 and DDR4 were available for the general public.

Which is the most likely reason why scientists change a model?
frozen [14]

C.) New discoveries make the current model inaccurate. Since science is all about observation and experimentation, it is logical that whenever new findings are gathered, scientific models must be modified to adapt to the information. As new ideas and concepts are uncovered, models should be updated to make them correct.
