Questions 29-32 refer to the following class.

public class Point

{
private int myX;
private int myY;

public Point ()
{
myX = 0;
myY = 0;
}

public Point (int x, int y)

{
myX = x;
myY = y;
}

public int getX()

{
return myX;
}

public int getY()

{
return myY;
}

29. Which of the following statements creates a point with coordinates (0,0)?

ii. p = Point (0, 0);
iii. p = (0,0);
a. i only
b. ii only
c. iii only
d. i and ii only
e. ii and iii only
30. Which of the following statements is true regarding the Point class?
 a. The class won’t compile because there are two methods name Point.
b. Variable myX and myY can be changed from outside of the class.
c. Point objects are immutable.
d. It’s impossible to create Point objects with coordinates other than (0,
0).
e. Giving myX and myY private visibility was a poor design decision.
31. Suppose we want to add to the Point class a method with the following
signature:
//Sets the x coordinate of the point to the given value
public void setX (int x)

Which statement should be in the body of the method?

a. x = myX;
b. myX = x;
c. myX = 0;
d. x = 0;
e. myX = myY;
32. Consider a method that will calculate and return the sales tax on an item.
Which method signature would be most appropriate?
a. int computeTax (double price)
b. void computeTax (double price)
c. int computeTax()
d. double computeTax (double price)
e. void computeTax ()
Questions 33 and 34 refer to the following method.
int doSomething (int k, int j)
{
while (k > j)
k--;
if (k < j)
j = k;
else
return j;
return k;

33. What best characterizes the return value of this method?

a. Return k – j
b. Return j – k
c. Returns the smaller of j and k
d. Returns the larger of j and k
e. Returns j if k and j are equal, k otherwise
34. Consider the following code segment.
int p = 5;
int q = 6;
doSomething (p, q);
System.out.println (p + “ “ + q);

What is printed?
a. 5 6
b. 5 5
c. 6 6
d. p q
e. There is a compile error because the return value of doSomething is
not stored in a variable.
