The correct answer, "Careers AND job description," is an example of a Boolean search because it uses the operator "AND" to specify that both the keywords "Careers" and "job description" must be present in the search results.

    A search engine is the best tool to use when wanting to use Boolean operators to narrow a search on careers. Search engines allow users to input specific keywords and use Boolean operators such as "AND," "OR," and "NOT" to refine search results and find more targeted information. Search engines also have advanced search options that enable users to filter results based on specific criteria, making them an ideal choice for narrowing down a search on careers.

    8.1.8.B.9 - Solving Basic Hardware Problems   Which one of the following could be the reason why a printer does not print?

    • A.

      The toner cartridge is full.

      The power cord is not plugged in.

    • C.

      The green power light is on.

    Correct Answer
    B. The power cord is not plugged in.
    Explanation
    The reason why a printer does not print could be because the power cord is not plugged in. The power cord provides the necessary electrical power for the printer to function. If it is not plugged in, the printer will not receive power and will not be able to print. The other options, such as the toner cartridge being full or the green power light being on, do not directly affect the printer's ability to print.

    Rate this question:

    • C.

      Wait until the next day.

    Correct Answer
    A. Look to see if all the power cords are plugged in.
    Explanation
    If nothing happens when you turn on the computer, the most logical step is to check if all the power cords are properly plugged in. This is because a loose or disconnected power cord can prevent the computer from receiving power and therefore not turn on. By ensuring that all the power cords are securely plugged in, you can troubleshoot the issue and potentially resolve it.

    Correct Answer
    C. Don't allow him to use my username and password.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Don't allow him to use my username and password." Sharing personal login credentials is a violation of ethical behavior on the internet. It is important to protect one's own privacy and security by not sharing usernames and passwords with others, even if they are friends. Instead, it would be more appropriate to encourage the friend to obtain their own permission slip or seek assistance from someone else.
