4. (15 points) Give an algorithm that takes as input a positive integer n and a number x, and computes xn (i. e., x raised to the power n) by performing O(lgn) multiplications. Your algorithm CANNOT use the exponentiation operation, and may use only the basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, modulo). Moreover, the total number of basic arithmetic operations used should be O(lgn).

1. which of the following statements are true about routers and routing on the internet. choose two answers. a. protocols ensure that a single path between two computers is established before sending packets over it. b. routers are hierarchical and the "root" router is responsible for communicating to sub-routers the best paths for them to route internet traffic. c. a packet traveling between two computers on the internet may be rerouted many times along the way or even lost or "dropped". d. routers act independently and route packets as they see fit.
