The marginal product of labor in the production of computer chips is 40 chips per hour. The marginal rate of technical substitution of hours of labor for hours of machine capital is 1/5. What is the marginal product of capital? {#1}In your own words, can you describe what this relationship means? {#2}

Complex Instruction Set Computers (CISC) is an open-source CPU architecture most commonly used in cell phones, tablets, and embedded systems. 

Registers store information about status of CPU and currently executing program.

For a display of 1920 pixels by 1080 pixels at 24 bits per pixel how much memory, in megabytes, is needed to store the image.

_________ holds software that is not expected to change over the life of the system such as firmware used for the system BIOS.

The following figure is the Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode to encrypt large messages. Which of the followings statement is *correct* regarding this mode?  

Write a method called “totalProfit” that, given an ArrayList of Homes (i.e., ArrayList), will sum the total rent made from all Apartments that are occupied and sum the total price of all Houses that are sold; each of the totals will be printed out on separate lines; and finally, the method will return the sum of totaled rent (of occupied Apartments) and price (of sold Houses). Assume this method is being created in some Driver class. Note: you may use “instanceof” to determine if the Home is an Apartment or a House   Example: Given the ArrayList as input: Apartment   rent: $1200   occupied: false House   price: $20000   sold: true House   price: $30000   sold: true Apartment   rent: $1000   occupied: true Apartment   rent: $1400   occupied: false   Output would be: Apartment Profit: $1000House Profit: $50000   And the method would return: 51000
