Suppose the daytime processing load consists of 60% CPU activity and 40% disk activity. Your customers are complaining that the system is slow. After doing some research, you learn that you can upgrade your disks for $8,000 to make them 2.5 times as fast as they are currently. You have also learned that you can upgrade your CPU to make it 1.4 times as fast for $5,000.
a) Which would you choose to yield the best performance improvement for the least amount of money?
b) Which option would you choose if you don’t care about the money, but want a faster system?
c) What is the break-even point for the upgrades? That is, what price would we need to charge for the CPU (or the disk—change only one) so the result was the same cost per 1% increase for both?

Write code using c . (take input from user) calculate the size of a given file in kbs. in this task you will complete the function with the following prototype: float get_file_size(char * filename); the function takes the file name (address to the start of a null terminated character array) as input. the function should then open the file and find the number of bytes it contains till eof. the number of bytes divided by 1024 will give the size in kbs. if the file cannot be opened the function should return -1.

Alook-up table used to convert pixel values to output values on a monitor. essentially, all pixels with a value of 190 or above are shown as white (i.e. 255), and all values with a value of 63 or less are shown as black (i.e. 0). in between the pixels are scaled so that a pixel with a value p is converted to a pixel of value 2/127 −+3969). if a pixel has a value of 170 originally, what value will be used to display the pixel on the monitor? if a value of 110 is used to display the pixel on the monitor, what was the original value of the pixel?
