There is a simple pattern for determining if a binary number is odd. what is it and why does this pattern occur? how many bits would you need if you wanted to have the ability to count up to 1000? how high could you count in binary if you used all 10 of your fingers as bits? (finger up means 1, finger down means 0)

Suppose there is a relation r(a, b, c) with a b+-tree index with search keys (a, b).1. what is the worst-case cost of finding records satisfying 10 < a < 50 using this index, in terms of the number of records n1, retrieved and the height h of the tree? 2. what is the worst-case cost of finding records satisfying 10 < a < 50 and 5 < b < 10 using this index, in terms of the number of records n2 that satisfy this selection, as well as n1 and h defined above? 3. under what conditions on n1 and n2, would the index be an efficient way of finding records satisfying the condition from part (2)?
