    Write a method declaration (just the first line but include the {) for the following description.  The wording must be exact and correct!The method must be called calculateFinalExam.  The method must return a double.  The method accepts 3 parameters:1. the studentId which must be an integer2. the studentName which must be a String3. the testScore which must be a double.

    • Public static double calculateFinalExam(int studentId, String studentName, double testScore) {

    • Public static single calculateFinalExam(int studentId, String studentName, double testScore) {

    • Public static double calculateFinal(int studentId, String studentName, double testScore) {

    • Public static double calculateExam(int studentId, String studentName, double testScore) {

    Correct Answer
    A. Public static double calculateFinalExam(int studentId, String studentName, double testScore) {
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "public static double calculateFinalExam(int studentId, String studentName, double testScore) {". This is the correct method declaration because it follows all the requirements given in the description. The method is named calculateFinalExam, it returns a double, and it accepts three parameters: an integer for studentId, a String for studentName, and a double for testScore.

    What is the output of this main() method?  Put the letters into the answer box provided wih no spaces between (i.e. ABCEDFG) public static void main(String [] args) {      System.out.print("A");      processRequest();      System.out.print("B");      System.out.print("C");      showMenu();      System.out.print("D"); } public static void showMenu() {     System.out.print("Q"); } public static void eraseFile() {    System.out.print("T"); } public static void processRequest() {   System.out.print("2"); }

    • A2BCQD

    • AY2E92

    • AU9283

    • A728SA

    Correct Answer
    A. A2BCQD
    Explanation
    The main method first prints "A", then calls the processRequest method which prints "2". After that, it prints "B" and "C" in order. Then, it calls the showMenu method which prints "Q". Finally, it prints "D". Therefore, the output of the main method is "A2BCQD".

    • 0

    • 1

    • 2

    • None; methods do not have formal parameters

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    The parameter list is all the things between the "(" and the ")". You just need to count how many items are in the list... each one will have a comma between them.

    • 100

    • 50 and 100

    • 150

    Correct Answer
    A. 50
    Explanation
    The if statement is true so the first return takes place. Once you call return the method is finished and will never perform anything else.

    What is the output of this main() method?  Put the letters into the answer box provided with no spaces between (i.e. ABCEDFG) public static void main(String [] args) {      showMenu();      eraseFile();      System.out.print("B");      showMenu(); } public static void showMenu() {     System.out.print("Q");     eraseFile(); } public static void eraseFile() {    System.out.print("T"); } public static void processRequest() {   System.out.print("2"); }

    • WUDYEW

    • QUDOWO

    • QCHSAL

    • QTTBQT

    Correct Answer
    A. QTTBQT
    Explanation
    The output of the main() method is "QTTBQT".
    The showMenu() method is called twice in the main() method. Inside the showMenu() method, "Q" is printed and then the eraseFile() method is called, which prints "T". This sequence is repeated twice, resulting in "QTT" being printed. Then, "B" is printed from the main() method. Finally, the showMenu() method is called again, printing "Q" and then the eraseFile() method is called, printing "T". So, the overall output is "QTTBQT".

    What is the output of this main() method?  Put the letters into the answer box provided with no spaces between (i.e. ABCEDFG) public static void main(String [] args) {     int value;     System.out.print("@");     v = getRemoteId();     System.out.print(v);     System.out.print("E");     v = getStudentCount();     System.out.print(v);     System.out.print("F");     v = getMonitorCount();     System.out.print("W");     } public static int getRemoteId() {    return 3; } public static int getMonitorCount() {   return 2; } public static int getStudentCount() {   return 6; }

    • @DKSLA

    • @63DLS

    • @3E6FW

    • @23JFL

    Correct Answer
    A. @3E6FW
    Explanation
    The main() method starts by printing "@" and then calls the getRemoteId() method, which returns the value 3. The value 3 is then printed. Next, the method prints "E" and calls the getStudentCount() method, which returns the value 6. The value 6 is printed. Finally, the method prints "F" and calls the getMonitorCount() method, which returns the value 2. However, the value is not printed as there is a missing print statement. Therefore, the correct output is "@3E6FW".

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer

    • 0

    • 1

    • 2

    • 4

    What is the output of this main() method?  Put the letters into the answer box provided wih no spaces between (i.e. ABCEDFG) public static void main(String [] args) {     int value;     int x;     x = 3;     System.out.print("A");     value = checkLength(x);     System.out.print("B");     System.out.print(x);     System.out.print(value); } public static void loadSong(int id) {    System.out.print(id); } public static int checkLength(int id) {   System.out.print(id);   id = id + 4;   System.out.print(id);   return 9; } public static int getStudentCount() {   return 6; }

    • A37B39

    • A68B90

    • A7D7BJ

    • ATIE78O

    Correct Answer
    A. A37B39
    Explanation
    The output of the main() method is "A37B39". The program first prints "A" and then calls the checkLength() method with the value of x (which is 3) as an argument. Inside the checkLength() method, the value of id is printed (3), then it is incremented by 4 (resulting in 7), and then it is printed again (7). The checkLength() method returns 9. Back in the main() method, "B" is printed, followed by the value of x (3), and then the value returned by the checkLength() method (9). Therefore, the final output is "A37B39".

    The following code in the main is valid:public static void main(String [] args) {    int value;    value = depositMoney(amount);    // rest of program}public static int depositMoney() {   return 4;}

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The depositMoney() method declaration has no formal parameter listed, therefore we cannot call the depositMoney() method and pass in a parameter.

    The following code in the main is valid:public static void main(String [] args) {    int value;    value = createGameCharacter();    // rest of program}public static void createGameCharacter() {}

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The return type of createGameCharacter() is void. You cannot store the return into the variable value.

    What is the output of this main() method?  Put the letters into the answer box provided wih no spaces between (i.e. ABCEDFG) public static void main(String [] args) {      System.out.print("A");      processRequest();      processRequest();      showMenu();      eraseFile();      System.out.print("B"); } public static void showMenu() {     System.out.print("Q"); } public static void eraseFile() {    System.out.print("T"); } public static void processRequest() {   System.out.print("2"); }

    • A22QBT

    • AYEI2KDK

    • A668DQY

    • A22QTB

    Correct Answer
    A. A22QTB
    Explanation
    The output of the main() method is "A22QTB". This is because the main() method first prints "A", then calls the processRequest() method twice, which prints "2" twice. Then, the main() method calls the showMenu() method, which prints "Q". After that, the main() method calls the eraseFile() method, which prints "T". Finally, the main() method prints "B".
