18-1.1 merging two individual rea cycle diagrams that share common resources requires changing the minimum cardinalities of:
a. some of the events that affect the shared resource.
b. none of the other entities.
c. some of the agents who participate in events affecting the shared resource.

Write a program called assignment3 (saved in a file assignment3.java) that computes the greatest common divisor of two given integers. one of the oldest numerical algorithms was described by the greek mathematician, euclid, in 300 b.c. it is a simple but very e↵ective algorithm that computes the greatest common divisor of two given integers. for instance, given integers 24 and 18, the greatest common divisor is 6, because 6 is the largest integer that divides evenly into both 24 and 18. we will denote the greatest common divisor of x and y as gcd(x, y). the algorithm is based on the clever idea that the gcd(x, y) = gcd(x ! y, y) if x > = y and gcd(x, y) = gcd(x, y ! x) if x < y. the algorithm consists of a series of steps (loop iterations) where the “larger” integer is replaced by the di↵erence of the larger and smaller integer. this continues until the two values are equal. that is then the gcd.

Which of the following is a way that advancements in technology improve humans' ability to measure air quality and protect human health? a. air quality data gathered by new instruments can be used to reduce exposure to pollutants. b. new technologies enable natural and human-made pollution sources to be located and monitored. c. air quality data gathered by new instruments can be used to predict trends in pollution over time. d. new technologies allow governments to make informed decisions about the regulation of pollution.
