A multicore processor with 4 cores has 15 attached tape drives. There is a large number of jobs submitted to the system that each requires exactly 4 tape drives to complete execution. Assume that each job runs on 4 tapes for the entire duration of its execution. Also assume an endless supply of such jobs. The scheduler in the operating system will not start a job unless there are 4 tape drives available. When a job is started, 4 drives are utilized immediately for its execution and are not released until the job finishes. Required:
a. What is the maximum number of jobs that can be in progress at once ?
b. What are the maximum and minimum number of tape drives that may be left idle at a given time as a result of this policy?

the number of the people going.

step-by-step explanation:

the cost to buy one movie ticket is $7. if the total cost for the movie is a function of how many people go, then the input is : the number of the people going.

no oblique asymptote

step-by-step explanation:

to find the oblique asymptote of f(x)

here numerator has degree 1 and denomintor degree 2

degree of numerator < degree of denominator

hence there is no oblique asymptote

when the degree of the denominator > that of the numerator, we saw that the value in the denominator got so much bigger, so quickly,   giving us a horizontal asymptote of the x-axis. or we can write

f(x) = a polynomial of x + a proper fraction.

in this case only we have oblique asymptotes but not when numerator has less degree.
