Answer:

a. indirect

Explanation:            

When a system is attacked by a hacker and this infected system is used to attack other systems then it is called indirect attack.  This type of attack is often initiated by a 3rd party computer. It is difficult to find from where this kind of attacks is originated.

Direct attack is when a system is attacked directly by an attacker by installing malicious software or often by getting unauthorized physical access to a computer. So option b is not true.

So the correct option is a. indirect.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

#program in Python.

#function to calculate driving cost

def driving_cost(d_miles, m_per_gallon, doll_per_gallon):

   #calculate cost and return the value

   return (d_miles / m_per_gallon) * doll_per_gallon

#read the miles per gallon  

m_per_gallon = float(input("Enter car's miles/gallon:"))

#read dollars per gallon

doll_per_gallon = float(input("Enter gas dollars/gallon:"))

#call function to find cost for 10 miles

print('%0.2f' % driving_cost(10, m_per_gallon, doll_per_gallon))

#call function to find cost for 50 miles

print('%0.2f' % driving_cost(50, m_per_gallon, doll_per_gallon))

#call function to find cost for 400 miles

print('%0.2f' % driving_cost(400, m_per_gallon, doll_per_gallon))

Explanation:

Read the value of miles per gallon and assign it to variable "m_per_gallon". Then read dollars per gallon from user and assign it to variable "doll_per_gallon". Call the function driving_cost() with parameter miles, m_per_gallon and doll_per_gallon. This function will find the cost of driving and return the cost.Call function for  10, 50 and 400 miles.

Output:

Enter car's miles/gallon:20                                                                                                

Enter gas dollars/gallon:3.1599                                                                                            

1.58

professor190 [17]
<span>I can't imagine any reason "why" he should have behaved in such an extraordinary way. If we were to use "how" in that sentence it would contradict the context. We are obviously talking about a situation that has happened so we know that "he" has in fact acted in an extraordinary way but we don't know "why" he acted that way. Therefore "why" is the correct term to use.</span>
