Oxnard Casualty wants to ensure that their e-mail server has 99.98 percent reliability. They will use several independent server

sattari [20]

Answer:

The smallest number of servers required is 3 servers

Explanation:

Given

$Reliability = 99.98\%$

$Individual Servers = 95\%$

Required

Minimum number of servers needed

Let p represent the probability that a server is reliable and the probability that it wont be reliable be represented with q

Such that

$p = 95\%\\$

It should be noted that probabilities always add up to 1;

So,

$p + q = 1$ '

Subtract p from both sides

$p - p + q = 1 - p$

$q = 1 - p$

Substitute $p = 95\%\\$

$q = 1 - 95\%$

Convert % to fraction

$q = 1 - \frac{95}{100}$

Convert fraction to decimal

$q = 1 - 0.95$

$q = 0.05$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To get an expression for one server

The probabilities of 1 servers having 99.98% reliability is as follows;

$p = 99.98\%$

Recall that probabilities always add up to 1;

So,

$p + q = 1$

Subtract q from both sides

$p + q - q = 1 - q$

$p = 1 - q$

So,

$p = 1 - q = 99.98\%$

$1 - q = 99.98\%$

Let the number of servers be represented with n

The above expression becomes

$1 - q^n = 99.98\%$

Convert percent to fraction

$1 - q^n = \frac{9998}{10000}$

Convert fraction to decimal

$1 - q^n = 0.9998$

Add $q^n$ to both sides

$1 - q^n + q^n= 0.9998 + q^n$

$1 = 0.9998 + q^n$

Subtract 0.9998 from both sides

$1 - 0.9998 = 0.9998 - 0.9998 + q^n$

$1 - 0.9998 = q^n$

$0.0002 = q^n$

Recall that $q = 0.05$

So, the expression becomes

$0.0002 = 0.05^n$

Take Log of both sides

$Log(0.0002) = Log(0.05^n)$

From laws of logarithm $Loga^b = bLoga$

So,

$Log(0.0002) = Log(0.05^n)$ becomes

$Log(0.0002) = nLog(0.05)$

Divide both sides by $Log0.05$

$\frac{Log(0.0002)}{Log(0.05)} = \frac{nLog(0.05)}{Log(0.05)}$

$\frac{Log(0.0002)}{Log(0.05)} = n$

$n = \frac{Log(0.0002)}{Log(0.05)}$

$n = \frac{-3.69897000434}{-1.30102999566}$

$n = 2.84310893421$

$n = 3 (Approximated)$

Hence, the smallest number of servers required is 3 servers

Can you structure this code in if-statements?

Naddika [18.5K]

Not sure what quizScore1-5 is, but here it is. Also, I'm not entirely sure what language you're working with here, but null can't be returned as an integer. If it were a string, for example, it'd be possible as string is an object reference type.

public int getData(int dataNumber)
{
if (dataNumber == 1)
return quizScore1;
else if (dataNumber == 2)
return quizScore2;
else if (dataNumber == 3)
return quizScore3;
else if (dataNumber == 4)
return quizScore4;
else if (dataNumber == 5)
return quizScore5;
else
return 0;
}

Dominik [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

True, the electronic components perform the tasks that are given to the computer.
The computer is made up of nothing but the electronic components like Transistors, Circuits etc.
Electronic components are the building blocks of the computer.
So essentially all the tasks performed by the computer are actually performed by the electronic components inside it.
So it can be understood that the tasks that are given to the computer are performed by the electronic components. They perform the tasks with the instructions given to the computer.
There also special electronic components designed to read, write and perform the tasks given to the computers.
The electronic components comprise of the circuits, transistors, resistors and capacitors.

Among object-oriented languages, one feature that varies considerably is whether the language allows multiple inheritance. C++ d

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Multiple inheritance causes Diamond problem which happens when:

Class A is parent of class B and C

Now when class D will be inherited from both Class B and C it will have all the members of class A and B which if same will confuse the compiler to import which one?

C++ solves it by using virtual keyword with them and thus telling the compiler which one to inherit.

Java has introduced the interface concept rather then allowing multiple inheritance.
