Consider this data sequence: "3 11 5 5 5 2 4 6 6 7 3 -8". any value that is the same as the immediately preceding value is considered a consecutive duplicate. in this example, there are three such consecutive duplicates: the 2nd and 3rd 5s and the second 6. note that the last 3 is not a consecutive duplicate because it was preceded by a 7. write some code that uses a loop to read such a sequence of non-negative integers , terminated by a negative number. when the code finishes executing, the number of consecutive duplicates encountered is printed. in this case, 3 would be printed. assume the availability of a variable, stdin, that references a scanner object associated with standard input. that is, stdin = new scanner(system.in); is given.

The initial tableau of a linear programming problem is given. use the simplex method to solve it. x 1 x 2 x 3 s 1 s 2 z 1 2 4 1 0 0 8 3 4 1 0 1 0 10 minus3 minus12 1 0 0 1 0 the maximum is nothing when x 1equals nothing, x 2equals nothing, x 3equals nothing, s 1equals3, and s 2equals0. (be sure to simplify to lowest terms if necessary.)
