4. Decode it into MIPS assembly language.


   addiu  $15, $0, 48
   addiu  $9, $0, -66
   addu   $12, $15, $9
   addiu  $9, $12, 60


   addiu  t7, zero, 48
   addiu  t1, zero, -66
   addu   t4, t7, t1
   addiu  t1, t4, 60


5. What is the result (register values) of this calculation


   t7 =        48 00000030
   t1 =        42 0000002a
   t4 =       -18 ffffffee
