3.) The operating system is the first to load on the computer's memory because computers today depend on the operating system. operating system is programmed to handle the resources and access protection of the hardware. This relieves the application programmers from having to manage these details.
4.)1. Loosen the lug nuts on the flat tire; don’t remove them yet.
2. Get the jack and jack up the car.
3. Remove the lug nuts from the flat tire and remove the tire.

5. Lower the car.
6. Secure the jack and flat tire in the trunk.
5.) mulituser operating system: the operating system is responsible for authentication and authorization. authentication mechanism requires to enter your user name and password. and example of authorization mechanism is giving priviliages to others to create an application software.

RQ: 1.) An algorithm is a system independent idea; a program is a concrete implementation of that idea for a given computer system.
DQ: 1.) Because you have to program the computer, and you need to know math and logic and syntax. That's why it's easier to use child labor to get work done than a computer.
Computers are totally logical; people can interpret different clues to help figure out instructions. Computers can't work a step and think. They just follow whatever is programmed.
