(a) Write the function rowSum() that receives a(double type) two-dimensional array using vectors and returns a vector consisting of the sum of elements in each row of the two-dimensional structure. The value of the returned vector at index zero is the sum of the elements in row zero of the two-dimensional structures. At index one of the returned vector is the sum of the elements in row one and so on. (b) Write a main function to test rowSum () function. Create a two-dimensional vector of at least size (5 x 5). Display the array and the content of the returned vector.

Compare the structure of xylenol orange to phenolphthalein. Do some research to determine why phenolphthalein changes color under acidic or basic conditions. Based on the chemistry of phenolphthalein, explain why xylenol orange is a different color in the presence and absence of zinc ions. It is useful to note that the xylenol orange-zinc complex that is red must absorb light around 500-550 nm while the free xylenol orange molecule is yellow, so must absorb light around 400-450 nm.

3. In the Daytona 500 auto race, a Ford Thunderbird and a
Mercedes Benz are moving side by side down a straightaway at 71.5
m/s. The driver of the Thunderbird realizes that she must make a
pit stop, and she smoothly slows to a stop over a distance of 250
m. She spends 5.00 s in the pit and then accelerates out, reaching
her previous speed of 71.5 m/s after a distance of 350 m. At this
point, how far has the Thunderbird fallen behind the Mercedes Benz,
which has continued at a constant speed?

During the past couple of years, ROCK has taken advantage of bonus depreciation and § 179 deductions and fully remodeled the premises and upgraded its leasehold improvements. This year, ROCK wrapped up its remodel with the purchase of $20,000 of office furniture for which it will claim a § 179 deduction. (For simplicity, assume that ROCK uses the same cost recovery methods for both tax and financial purposes.) There is no depreciation adjustment for alternative minimum tax purposes. While the property is fully depreciated, it is not beyond the end of its depreciable life for purposes of the qualified business income deduction.
ROCK invests much of its excess cash in non-dividend-paying growth stocks and tax-exempt securities. During the year, the LLC sold two securities. On June 15, ROCK purchased 1,000 shares of Tech, Inc. stock for $100,000; it sold those shares on December 15, for $80,000. On March 15 of last year, ROCK purchased 2,000 shares of BioLabs, Inc. stock for $136,000; it sold those shares for $160,000 on December 15 of the current year. These transactions were reported to the IRS on Forms 1099–B; ROCK’s basis in these shares wasreported.
Net income per books is $840,000. On January 1, the members’ capital accounts equaled $200,000 each. No additional capital contributions were made this year. In addition to their guaranteed payments, each member withdrew $250,000 cash during the year. The LLC’s balance sheet as of December 31 of this year is as follows.

1. Study the Connecting to an XE Oracle Server document available by hyperlink from the course web site. Logon to your XE instance server account using windows/Linux/Unix command line. After logging on, answer following questions:
What is your home directory of ORACLE_HOME
What is your ORACLE_SID
What is you ORACLE_BASE directory?
2. Move to the ORACLE_HOME subdirectory. Examine the other subdirectories under ORACLE_HOME. Look in the dbs subdirectory that stores the PFILE for the XE database. The example PFILE is named init.ora. The init.ora file is a template that you can use to create your own PFILE. Locate the init.ora files
What is the database block size specified for the XE database with this init.ora file?
How many control files are defined and what are their names?
What version of Oracle is this database set to support for compatibility of features?
What is the name of the tablespace that supports UNDO management?
3. The XE database consists of multiple datafiles and other files. Explore and find and List the location of the XE database files

Deliverable 2 - Implementation of an Enterprise Architecture
Outline a plan to create an enterprise architecture for a cloud-based web application server and SQL Database Sever. Including the necessary development environment, production environment, and implementation schedule including a critical path.
Competency
Summarize the common elements of enterprise architectures.
Scenario
You work as a developer for Solutions Inc. Your client, Universal Widgets, is planning to implement a cloud-based solution for their IoT(Internet of Things) connected devices. These devices are designed to monitor air quality in a home for the homeowner's heating and air system. These devices also are able to detect the carbon dioxide levels, presence of smoke, and notify homeowner's when to change the air filters.
The majority of Universal Widgets' customers will use this new solution. This is predicted to increase their sales and their customer base. However, because of the public safety features that are offered by this application, up-time for customers will need to be no less than 99.999% each month. Therefore, any implementation that occurs to the production environment needs to be properly tested prior to implementation.
Instructions
Develop an implementation plan for this cloud-based solution. This plan must include the following elements:
