Consider the following statement: int num = /* expression */; Which of the following replacements for /* expression */ creates in num a random integer from 2 to 50, including 2 and 50? (A) (int)(Math.random() * 50) - 2 (B) (int)(Math.random() * 49) - 2 (C) (int)(Math.random() * 49) + 2 (D) (int)(Math.random() * 50) + 2 (E) (int)(Math.random() * 48) + 2

(C) (int)(Math.random() * 49) + 2

Consider the following method, which is intended to calculate and return the expression ( x + y ) 2 | a − b | . public double calculate(double x, double y, double a, double b) { return /* missing code */; } Which of the following can replace /* missing code */ so that the method works as intended? (A) Math.sqrt(x ^ 2, y ^ 2, a - b) (B) Math.sqrt((x + y) ^ 2) / Math.abs(a, b) (C) Math.sqrt((x + y) ^ 2 / Math.abs(a - b)) (D) Math.sqrt(Math.pow(x + y, 2) / Math.abs(a, b)) (E) Math.sqrt(Math.pow(x + y, 2) / Math.abs(a - b))

(E) Math.sqrt(Math.pow(x + y, 2) / Math.abs(a - b))

The Student class has been defined to store and manipulate grades for an individual student. The following methods have been defined for the class. /* Returns the sum of all of the student's grades */ public double sumOfGrades() { /* implementation not shown */ } /* Returns the total number of grades the student has received */ public int numberOfGrades() { /* implementation not shown */ } /* Returns the lowest grade the student has received */ public double lowestGrade() { /* implementation not shown */ } Which of the following statements, if located in a method in the Student class, will determine the average of all of the student's grades except for the lowest grade and store the result in the double variable newAverage ? (A ) newAverage = sumOfGrades() / numberOfGrades() - 1; (B) newAverage = sumOfGrades() / (numberOfGrades() - 1); (C) newAverage = sumOfGrades() - lowestGrade() / (numberOfGrades() - 1); (D) newAverage = (sumOfGrades() - lowestGrade()) / numberOfGrades() - 1; (E) newAverage = (sumOfGrades() - lowestGrade()) / (numberOfGrades() - 1);

(E) newAverage = (sumOfGrades() - lowestGrade()) / (numberOfGrades() - 1);

a) // c) /* */

Consider the following code segment. String oldStr = "ABCDEF"; String newStr = oldStr.substring(1, 3) + oldStr.substring(4); System.out.println(newStr); What is printed as a result of executing the code segment? a) BCEF b) ABCD c) ABCDEF d) BCDE e) BCDEF

The following code segment is supposed to calculate and display the sum of 1 + 2 + ... + 20: int count = 0, sum = 0; while (count < 20) { sum += count; } System.out.println (sum); What is the result of the lines of code shown above? a) the sum display will be correct b) there will be no output b/c the program goes into an infinite loop c) the output will be "20" d) the sum display will be 20 too small

b) there will be no output b/c the program goes into an infinite loop

Consider the following methods, which appear in the same class. public void slope(int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2) { int xChange = x2 - x1; int yChange = y2 - y1; printFraction(yChange, xChange); } public void printFraction(int numerator, int denominator) { System.out.print(numerator + "/" + denominator); } Assume that the method call slope(1, 2, 5, 10) appears in a method in the same class.
