Answer:

The correct option is c.  /etc/updatedb.conf

Explanation:

In Linux operating system, locate command is used to search for directories and files in the system.

The locate command uses a database file which is generated by updatedb command to search for a pattern.

Therefore, Lynn can modify the /etc/updatedb.conf file so that the locate command doesn't include those results in the search results.

You can further explore the available options of locate command by typing the man locate command in the terminal.

likoan [24]

Answer:

Answer explained with detail below

Explanation:

Consider the solution given by the greedy algorithm as a sequence of packages, here represented by indexes: 1, 2, 3, ... n. Each package i has a weight, w_i, and an assigned truck t_i. { t_i } is a non-decreasing sequence (as the k'th truck is sent out before anything is placed on the k+1'th truck). If t_n = m, that means our solution takes m trucks to send out the n packages.

If the greedy solution is non-optimal, then there exists another solution { t'_i }, with the same constraints, s.t. t'_n = m' < t_n = m.

Consider the optimal solution that matches the greedy solution as long as possible, so \for all i < k, t_i = t'_i, and t_k != t'_k.

t_k != t'_k => Either

1) t_k = 1 + t'_k

    i.e. the greedy solution switched trucks before the optimal solution.

    But the greedy solution only switches trucks when the current truck is full. Since t_i = t'_i i < k, the contents of the current truck after adding the k - 1'th package are identical for the greedy and the optimal solutions.

    So, if the greedy solution switched trucks, that means that the truck couldn't fit the k'th package, so the optimal solution must switch trucks as well.

    So this situation cannot arise.

  2) t'_k = 1 + t_k

     i.e. the optimal solution switches trucks before the greedy solution.

     Construct the sequence { t"_i } s.t.

       t"_i = t_i, i <= k

       t"_k = t'_i, i > k

     This is the same as the optimal solution, except package k has been moved from truck t'_k to truck (t'_k - 1). Truck t'_k cannot be overpacked, since it has one less packages than it did in the optimal solution, and truck (t'_k - 1)

     cannot be overpacked, since it has no more packages than it did in the greedy solution.

     So { t"_i } must be a valid solution. If k = n, then we may have decreased the number of trucks required, which is a contradiction of the optimality of { t'_i }. Otherwise, we did not increase the number of trucks, so we created an optimal solution that matches { t_i } longer than { t'_i } does, which is a contradiction of the definition of { t'_i }.

   So the greedy solution must be optimal.

An expression containing the operator &amp;&amp; is true either or both of its operands are true. True/False
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

An expression containing the && and  operator is only true if both of the operands present in the expression are true otherwise it will give the result as false if either one of them is false or both of them are false.In the question it states that the expression in true either or both of it's operand are true.

Hence the answer is true.
