TOM, Inc. produces and sells two products, L and V.
Revenue and cost information for the two products from last
month appear below:

Product L Product V
selling price per unit ........... $15.00 $12.00
variable costs per unit .......... $ 8.00 $ 7.00

For the coming month, Betty would like to use linear programming
in order to maximize monthly profits.

Each month Betty has 80,000 direct labor hours available and 60,000
machine hours available. Product L requires 5 direct labor hours for
each unit and 2 machine hours for each unit. Product V requires 4
direct labor hours for each unit and 8 machine hours for each unit.

Calculate the number of units of Product L that should be produced
in order to maximize net income.

This is a three-part question. If you want it piecemeal, then let me know.

Assume that R31, R30, ... , R0 are the 32 ALU result bits output by our MIPS ALU.

a) Write down a logic expression for the Z (zero) flag that indicates when the result is zero as a function of these 32 result bits.

b) Write down a logic expression for an N (negative) flag that indicates whether the result is negative.

c) Suppose that there were four flags Z, N, V, and C (for zero, negative, overflow and carry). After the instruction sub  $t0,$t1,$t2 which subtracts $t2 from $t1 and places the result into $t0, what combination of the flags (Z, N, V, C) indicates that $t1 contains a value less than that in $t2? Write down the logic expression for LESS as a function of Z, N, V and C.  LESS = __________________

I am stuck on the following problem please and it has to be in python!

1) Initially, create a list of the following elements and assign the list to a variable "thing".

"Mercy", "NYU", "SUNY", "CUNY"

2) print the list above

3) add your last name to the list

4) print the list

5) add the following elements as a nested list to the list:

"iPhone", "Android"

6) print the list

7) add the following list to the end of the list as elements:

["MIT", "CMU"]

8) print the list

9) add the following nested list to the third position of the list thing:

[30, 40+1]

10) print the list

11) delete "SUNY" from the list. # revised this question on 9/24 8:41pm!

12) print the list

13) add "Mercy" to the second last in the list (so "Mercy" should be in between "MIT" and "CMU"):

14) print the list

15) count "Mercy" in the list and print.

16) print the number of the top-level elements in the list.

17) In Step 10 above, explain why 40+1 is entered 41 to the list.


Challenge) Can we remove an element from a nested list? If yes, explain how in plain text. If not, explain why not

Challenge) Can we count each every element in a list, which may contain nested lists? If yes, explain how in plain text. If not, explain why not

4. The highway department is testing two types of reflecting paint for concrete bridge end pillars. The two kinds of paint are alike in every respect except that one is orange and the other is yellow. The orange paint is applied to 12 bridges, and the yellow paint is applied to 12 bridges. After a period of 1 year, reflectometer readings were made on all these bridge end pillars. (A higher reading means better visibility.) For the orange paint, the mean reflectometer reading was x1 = 9.4, with standard deviation s1 = 2.1. For the yellow paint the mean was x2 = 6.9, with standard deviation s2 = 2.5. Based on the data, can we conclude that the yellow paint has less visibility after 1 year? Use a 1% level of significance.
