No choice menu required.

Sample Input (taken from keyboard, single space separated nodes as found in a complete BFS: top-down, left to right traversal):

22 10 30 5 15 25 40 1 8

Sample Output (in console or in a file):

Depth First Traversal: Inorder, LVR -> 1 5 8 10 15 22 25 30 40

Depth First Traversal: Inorder, RVL -> 40 30 25 22 15 10 8 5 1

Depth First Traversal: Preorder, VLR -> 22 10 5 1 8 15 30 25 40

Depth First Traversal: Preorder, VRL -> 22 30 40 25 10 15 5 8 1

Depth First Traversal: Postorder, LRV -> 1 8 5 15 10 25 40 30 22

Depth First Traversal: Postorder, RLV -> 40 25 30 15 8 1 5 10 22

As a network manager in a medium-size corporation, it is your responsibility to use a proactive approach to providing security to your network.

• Evaluate 2 network monitoring technologies.
  • These should be able to provide you with a graphical look at your network nodes and layout. These technologies should both offer an alert mechanism that is included in the package.
• State some advantages and disadvantages of each.
• Compare the costs of each.

This information will need to be presented to your Vice President and CIO so that funding can be provided to implement one of the solutions you are recommending.

• For each technology, create a 6-slide PowerPoint presentation (12 slides total).
  • Input the information you have found on each solution.
  • Include any information that you think will be useful in helping them understand the importance of proactive network management and monitoring and how it plays a key role in maintaining a stable operating environment.

Dr. Lillian​ Fok, a New Orleans​ psychologist, specializes in treating patients who are agoraphobic​ (i.e., afraid to leave their​ homes). The following table indicates how many patients Dr. Fok has seen each year for the past 10 years. It also indicates what the robbery rate was in New Orleans during the same​ year:

The simple linear regression equation that shows the best relationship between the number of patients and year is ​(round your responses to three decimal​ places):

^

Y= _____+_____x

^

where Y ​= Dependent Variable and x​ = Independent Variable.

Using linear regression, the number of patients Dr. Fok will see in year 11=_______patients (round your response to two decimal places).

Using linear regression, the number of patients Dr. Fok will see in year 12=_______patients (round your response to two decimal places).

Discuss other systems and their artifacts we might find. This class revolves around a traditional computer. What other devices could we forensically image that may contribute data or forensic information that may be located in our homes? Are there privacy concerns? Anyone hear of an Amazon Echo?

I and my husband Jose have total amount of $150,000 in our savings account. We have 3 school going kids. We want to buy a new home, a new car and keep funds for children higher education.

We finalized to buy a home for $760,000. We may use $120,000 of our savings as a down payment on it. For balance financing the mortgage specialist/agent gave us the following options:

1. Option 1: a 25-year mortgage/loan, with semi-monthly payments (at the end of each period). The interest rate on the mortgage is 3.26% APR (annual percentage rate) compounded semi-annually.

Ques 1. What will the semi-monthly payment be on the Option 1 mortgage?

Please use (display + name) the excel function/ formula. Also please attach the screenshots/ photos of the excel sheet solution.

Option 2: a monthly payment of $2,900 to be made at the end of each period. The interest rate with this option would be 3.60% APR (annual percentage rate) compounded semi-annually.

Ques 2. How many years will Option 2 mortgage be amortized over?

Please use (display + name) the excel function/ formula. Also please attach the screenshots/ photos of the excel sheet solution.

Ques 3. To buy a new car of $45,000 (including taxes). In exchange of our old car for $10,000 and $10,000 from our savings as a down payment, the car dealer would provide the $25,000 balance as a 5-year loan paid semi-monthly at 4.8% APR compounded semi-monthly. What will the payment be on the loan for the car as per below information?

Please use (display + name) the excel function/ formula. Also please attach the screenshots/ photos of the excel sheet solution.

Consider the following short cases. Connect one of the three capacity strategies (level, outsourcing or chase) to each. Why did you draw this connection?

1. XYZ Music is a long standing firm in tiny Hickville, TN. The firm employees highly skilled crafts people that make custom instruments. Most employees have been with the firm for decades. Demand varies over time, but the firm is highly committed to keeping a consistent work force and can work ahead if needed to meet seasonal need. Training new employees takes years.
2. Andy’s Sports Memories is a maker of t-shirts and other items associated with sporting events. They frequently need to “gear up” for championship events (like the Predators winning the Stanley Cup) and “gear down” with little lead time. Training time of employees is minimal and there is a significant population of local residents to draw from. Given the nature of the events they support, Andy’s can’t count on shipping product in from far distances. They need to be able to make items in their own shop quickly.
3. Steve’s Promotional Items is a maker of small gift items for company promotional purposes. For example, they either make or add logos to small flashlights, pen sets, coffee mugs, etc. Lead times are long, often 2-3 months. Low cost is paramount. Steve’s real competence is in marketing and selling products, not in making them.
