Answer:

  C = (7, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells us the relation between the points is ...

  (B-A)/(C-A) = 2/7

  7(B -A) = 2(C -A) . . . . . . multiply by 7(C-A)

  7B -7A +2A = 2C . . . . . add 2A

  C = (7B -5A)/2 . . . . . . . divide by 2

  C = (7(2, -4) -5(0, -8))/2 = (14, 12)/2 . . . . . fill in the values of A and B

  C = (7, 6)

Alla [95]

Answer:

The point estimate for this problem is 0.48.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a University wanted to find out the percentage of students who felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students.

A survey of 2,800 students was conducted and the students were asked if they felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students. The results were 1,344 answered "Yes" and 1,456 answered "no".

<em>Let </em>\hat p<em> = proportion of students who felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students</em>

<u></u>

<u>Now,  point estimate (</u>\hat p<u>) is calculated as;</u>

                               \hat p=\frac{X}{n}

where, X = number of students who answered yes = 1,344

            n = number of students surveyed = 2,800

So, Point estimate (\hat p)  =  \frac{1,344}{2,800}

                                     =  <u>0.48 or 48%</u>

A) 60%, 40%

B) 25%

C) 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The accuracy of always-taken for this sequence of branch outcomes = 60%

The accuracy of always -not-taken for this sequence of branch outcomes = 40%

b) The accuracy of the 2-bit predictor for the first four branches assuming that the predictor starts off in the bottom left state = 25%

C)the accuracy of the 2-bit predictor if this pattern is repeated forever = 60% ( was stopped after the fourth iteration because the fourth and third iterations are the same)  =
