Suppose the daytime processing load consists of 60% CPU activity and 40% disk activity. Your customers are complaining that the system is slow. After doing some research, you learn that you can upgrade your disks for $8,000 to make them 2.5 times as fast as they are currently. You have also learned that you can upgrade your CPU to make it 1.4 times as fast for $5,000. a) Which would you choose to yield the best performance improvement for the least amount of money?
b) Which option would you choose if you don’t care about the money, but want a faster system?
c) What is the break-even point for the upgrades? That is, what price would we need to charge for the CPU (or the disk—change only one) so the result was the same cost per 1% increase for both?

Write a program that displays the following menu: geometry calculator 1. calculate the area of a circle 2. calculate the area of a rectangle 3. calculate the area of a triangle 4. quit enter your choice (1-4): if the user enters 1, the program should ask for the radius of the circle and then display its area. use the following formula: area = ď€(the square of r) use 3.14159 for ď€ and the radius of the circle for r. if the user enters 2, the program should ask for the length and width of the rectangle and then display the rectangle’s area. use the following formula: area = length * width if the user enters 3, the program should ask for the length of the triangle’s base and its height, and then display its area. use the following formula: area = base * height * .5 if the user enters 4, the program should end. input validation: display an error message if the user enters a number outside the range of 1 through 4 when selecting an item from the menu. do not accept negative values for the circle’s radius, the rectangle’s length or width, or the triangle’s base or height. note: if the user enters an improper menu choice (1-4), the program prints "the valid choices are 1 through 4. run the program again and select one of those." if the user enters a negative radius, the program prints "the radius can not be less than zero." if the user enters a negative value for height or base, the program prints "only enter positive values for base and height."
