The answer is 20. See below image OR One way to select root. 10 / \ LST (3 elements) RST (2 elements) Now LST contains an element out of 5 (As the root is chosen) So Total ways to choose element $_{}^{5}\textrm{C}_{3}$ and RST contains 2 element So number of ways = $_{}^{2}\textrm{C}_{2}$ Let LST chosen { 20,30,40} Now 2 chosen as root of… [...]

Answer: 80000 bits per second Explanation Transfer Time(let Ty) given as 1 cycle. Let Preparation Time be Tx. Processor operating frequency given as 2 MHz, from this we can calculate Cycle Time = 1/2MHz = 0.5 micro seconds. %time CPU blocked = 0.5% (Given) For cycle stealing mode, %time CPU blocked = (transfer time/preparation time)*100, putting the values in this formula, 0.5% = 1 cycle/Tx Tx = 100 micro second. The Tx depends upon device data transfer rate. Now DMA is transferring 8 bit data, and to prepare 8 bits of data, time required by the device is 100 micro seconds, so we can… [...]

Given that, $ 4^{n} . 17^{19} $ Taking the $ \log_{10}$ both sides. $ \log_{10}4^{n} . \log_{10} 17^{19} $ $ \Rightarrow n \log_{10}4 . 19 \log_{10}17 \; [ \because \log_{b}a^{x} = x \log_{b}a] $ $ \Rightarrow n > 19 \left( \frac{\log_{10}17}{ \log_{4}17} \right) $ $ \Rightarrow n > 19 ( \log_{4}17) \; \left[ \log_{b}a = \frac{ \log_{x}a}{ \log_{x}b} \right] $ For easy calculation, let us assume $17 \approx 16.$ Now, $ n > 19 ( \log_{4} 16)$ $ \Rightarrow n > 19 ( \log_{4} 4^{2})$ $ \Rightarrow n > 19 \times 2 ( \log_{4}4)$ $ \Rightarrow $ [...]

Let $x$ and $y$ be the two numbers. $ x^{2} + y^{2} = 97 \quad \longrightarrow (1) $ The geometric mean cannot exceed the arithmetic mean. $ \text{AM} \geqslant \text{GM} $ $ \Rightarrow \boxed{\frac{a_{1} + a_{2} + a_{3} + \dots + a_{n} } {n} \geqslant \sqrt[n]{a_{1} a_{2} \dots a_{n}}} $ Now, $ \frac{x^{2} + y^{2}}{2} \geqslant \sqrt{x^{2} \cdot y^{2}} $ $ \Rightarrow \frac{x^{2} + y^{2}}{2} \geqslant \sqrt{(xy)^{2}} $ $ \Rightarrow \frac{x^{2} + y^{2}}{2} \geqslant xy $ $ \Rightarrow x^{2} + y^{2} \geqslant 2xy $ $ \Rightarrow 97 \geqslant 2xy $ $ \Rightarrow 2xy \leqslant 97 $ $ \Rightarrow xy \leqslant… [...]
