Answer:Information technology(IT) :- It is the use of technology in developing, maintaining, and use of computers software, and networks for the processing and distributing the data .

Information System(IS) can be defined as a system which consists of software,hardware and trained individuals brought together to help an organization to plan,control,coordinate and to make decisions.

The difference between IT and IS is that Information Technology is the part of Information system but deals with the technology within the system.

Simora [160]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{Brand \ A \ (35, 350, 18.7) \ \ Brand \ B \ (35, 50, 7.07)}"

Explanation:

Calculating the mean for brand A:

\to \bar{X_{A}}=\frac{10+60+50+30+40+20}{6}  =\frac{210}{6}=35

Calculating the Variance for brand A:

\sigma_{A}^{2}=\frac{\left ( 10-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 60-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 50-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 30-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 40-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 20-35 \right )^{2}}{5} \\\\

     =\frac{\left ( -25 \right )^{2}+\left ( 25  \right )^{2}+\left ( 15\right )^{2}+\left ( -5 \right )^{2}+\left ( 5 \right )^{2}+\left ( 15 \right )^{2}}{5} \\\\ =\frac{625+ 625+225+25+25+225}{5} \\\\ =\frac{1750}{50}\\\\=350

Calculating the Standard deviation:

\sigma _{A}=\sqrt{\sigma _{A}^{2}}=18.7

Calculating the Mean for brand B:

\bar{X_{B}}=\frac{35+45+30+35+40+25}{6}=\frac{210}{6}=35

Calculating the Variance for brand B:

\sigma_{B} ^{2}=\frac{\left ( 35-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 45-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 30-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 35-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 40-35 \right )^{2}+\left ( 25-35 \right )^{2}}{5}

    =\frac{\left ( 0 \right )^{2}+\left ( 10 \right )^{2}+\left ( -5 \right )^{2}+\left (0 \right )^{2}+\left ( 5 \right )^{2}+\left ( -10 \right )^{2}}{5}\\\\=\frac{0+100+25+0+25+100}{5}\\\\=\frac{100+25+25+100}{5}\\\\=\frac{250}{5}\\\\=50

 Calculating the Standard deviation:  

\sigma _{B}=\sqrt{\sigma _{B}^{2}}=7.07

Why might a variable used for output have to be of a different type then a variable used for input?​
telo118 [61]

Answer:

You may use a different variable type for input in order to process the data appropriately and may use a different variable type to accommodate your program.

Explanation:

Your input may have to be different then output varying on what data you are processing.

For example, just like the last question you asked about calculating the area of the rectangle, your input MUST be converted to a different a numerical data type (i.e int or float) in order to do the math.

Based on your last question, if we didn't convert your input into a string your results wouldn't add the numbers together but only concatenate them. If I typed 3 & 5 as length & width, I would get 35 instead of 15.

Now another example is using functions (or methods whatever you want to call them), your input can be one thing and outputs another.

Let's say I want a function to tell me if I am smart. The way I want it to determine if its smart is by inputting my GPA into it, which is a numerical value. So the function would look something like this:

<u>Code (Python)</u>

def IsSmart(gpa):

  if (gpa >= 4):

       return True

  else

       return False

As you can see I am inputting a numerical value and it is outputting a boolean value. I can use this in a if else chain to spit out an output to the user.

QUESTION 6 Which of the following is a class A IPv4 address? a. 118.20.210.254 b. 183.16.17.30 c. 215.16.17.30 d. 255.255.0.0
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

a. 118.20.210.254

Explanation:

Here are the few characteristics of Class A:

First bit of the first octet of class A is 0.

This class has 8 bits for network and 24 bits for hosts.

The default sub-net mask for class A IP address is 255.0.0.0

Lets see if the first bit of first octet of 118.20.210.254 address is 0.

118 in binary (8 bits) can be represented as : 1110110

To complete 8 bits add a 0 to the left.

01110110

First bit of the first octet of class A is 0 So this is class A address.

For option b the first octet is : 183 in the form of bits = 10110111 So it is not class A address

For option c the first octet is 215 in the form of bits = 11010111 So it is not class A address

For option d the first octet is 255 in the form of bits = 11111111. The first bit of first octet is not 0 so it is also not class A address.
