GMAT Exam Dumps : Graduate Management Admission Test (2022)

West River Glen is deciding which network architecture should replace its old copper telephone lines. The town will replace 300 miles of Outside Plant (OSP) cable that will serve approximately 2,500 homes.

The first option is to install a Fiber to the Home (FTTH) system architecture that uses fiber-optic cable to transmit signals from the source to each home. The advantages of this architecture include greater bandwidth capabilities, less signal loss, and slightly lower new-cable deployment costs than the second option, Hybrid Fiber-Coax (HFC).

An HFC network integrates fiber-optic cables and devices with coaxial cables.

This will cost the town substantially less money for internal equipment and for customer installations. However, the coaxial cable does not last as long as fiberoptic cable and will thus need to be replaced more frequently, resulting in higher long-term maintenance expenses.

The town believes that either the FTTH or HFC architectures will be capable of serving the communities' data and television needs for the next 30 years.

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement can be inferred to be true on the basis of the information provided. Otherwise, select No.

Television picture quality improves as resolution increases. However, the resolution at which a given improvement in resolution becomes visible varies with the distance of

the viewer from the screen. As a viewer moves closer to the screen, a given improvement in resolution eventually becomes noticeable, finally conferring its “full benefit” at

a point at which moving closer would not improve the viewing experience.

On the graph, 480p, 720p, 1080p, and 1440p represent four common degrees of resolution: greater numbers indicate greater numbers of pixels on the screen and thus

greater resolution. Shaded portions show the distances at which these resolutions become noticeable, while the broken lines show the maximum distances at which a

viewer with normal eyesight would be expected to experience full benefit—all as a function of screen size. For each resolution and screen size shown, there is a small gap

between the maximum distance for full benefit from the resolution and the minimum distance for noticeable benefit from the next higher resolution.

(Note: 3 feet is roughly 1 meter, and 1 inch is roughly 2.5 centimeters.)

Assuming that the information contained in the graphic correctly applies to all viewers, select from the drop-down menus the options making the statements most

accurate.

A city's chamber of commerce has the following goal for small businesses: revenue should be at least 20% greater than costs. The Venn diagram indicates that x is the number of small businesses that both in Year 1 and in Year 2 met the goal. The diagram also indicates that 53 - x is the number of small businesses that met the goal in Year 1 but not in Year 2, and that 47 - x is the number of small businesses that met the goal in Year 2 but not in Year 1.
