Assume branches constitute 50% of the instructions of a program running on a 5-stage MIPS pipeline, branch outcome is determined in the Execute stage and there are no data hazards when answering the questions below. How many cycles will be lost on a mispredicted branch

7. design a circuit with three inputs (x, y, and z) representing the bits in a binary number, and three outputs (a, b, and c) also representing bits in a binary number. when the input is 1, 2, or 3, the binary output should be one lesser than the input. when the input is 4, 5, or 6, the binary output should be one greater than the input. when the input is 0, the output is 0, and when the input is 7, the output is 7. show your truth table, all computations for simplification, and the final circuit.
