Consider a ternary counter variation of the binary counter, which represents numbers with bits 0,1 and 2. Recall that while using the aggregate method for amortizing the cost of a binary counter increment, we were required to calculate the total cost of n increment operations using a geometric series. Repeat this process for the ternary counter. What is the amortized cost of a single increment on the ternary counter?

Ap practice - performance task response the ap create performance task asks you to write about an abstraction that you developed and wrote into your code. most of the time that means identifying a function or procedure you wrote to "manage complexity" in your program. here is the actual prompt from the create performance task: 2d. capture and paste a program code segment that contains an abstraction you developed individually on your own (marked with a rectangle). this abstraction must integrate mathematical and logical concepts. explain how your abstraction manage the complexity of your program. (must not exceed 200 words) below is a segment of code from an "under the sea" program with a rectangle drawn around a portion of the code identifying an abstraction. imagine that you wrote this and are composing an ap response about how this abstraction manages complexity. (note: ignore the requirement that the abstraction integrate "mathematical and logical concepts" for this practice response. just write about managing complexity). explain how the abstraction marked with the rectangle in the code above manage complexity of this program. write your response here submit

Assume that there is a 4% rate of disk drive failure in a year. a. if all your computer data is stored on a hard disk drive with a copy stored on a second hard disk drive, what is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive? b. if copies of all your computer data are stored on three independent hard disk drives, what is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive?
