When computers need to use more memory than have RAM, they'll swap out pages of memory to their drive. When they need those memory pages, they'll swap out others and swap in the needed ones. If a computer needs enough additionall memory, it can get so busy swapping that it doesn't have any (or very little) time to do any useful work. That is called thrashing.

Unix calls swapping swapping. Windows calls it paging, probably because of the memory pages. Memory pages are 4096 (4KB) sections of memory.

Unix drives are usually partitioned with a swap partition, and swap files can be made in the filesystem. Windows just has pagefiles[s].

Using C++
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

void OutputMinutesAsHours(double origMinutes) { //Same as question

   double hours=origMinutes/60; //solution is here

   cout<<hours;

}

//Below is same as mentioned in question

int main() {

OutputMinutesAsHours(210.0);

cout << endl;

return 0;

}

OUTPUT :

3.5

Explanation:

In the above code, only two lines are added. To convert minutes into hours we have to divide them 60, so we take minutes as input and define a new variable of double type which stores minutes converted to hours and then that variable is printed to console. For 210, it gives 3.5, similarly for 3600 it gives 60 and so on.

Use the Law of Sines to solve the triangle. Round your answers to two decimal places.
iris [78.8K]

Answer: 37.1

Explanation: The Law of sines states that there is a proportionality between a side of triangle and its correspondent angle, i.e.:

\frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{b}{sinB} = \frac{c}{sinC}

where:

a, b and c are sides

A, B and C are angles

In the question, there is a triangle with 27.4 as a measure of side a, angles A and C. So, it wants the side c:

\frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{c}{sinC}

\frac{27.4}{sin(99.7)} = \frac{c}{sin(20.4)}

c = \frac{27.4.sin(20.4)}{sin(99.7)}

c = 37.1

The side c is 37.1
