4. Decode it into MIPS assembly language.


   addiu  $9, $0, 92
   addiu  $12, $0, -4
   addu   $14, $9, $12
   addiu  $12, $14, 86


   addiu  t1, zero, 92
   addiu  t4, zero, -4
   addu   t6, t1, t4
   addiu  t4, t6, 86


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


   t1 =        92 0000005c
   t4 =       174 000000ae
   t6 =        88 00000058
