4. Decode it into MIPS assembly language.


   addiu  $14, $0, 95
   addiu  $15, $0, -12
   addu   $12, $14, $15
   addiu  $15, $12, 42


   addiu  t6, zero, 95
   addiu  t7, zero, -12
   addu   t4, t6, t7
   addiu  t7, t4, 42


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


   t6 =        95 0000005f
   t7 =       125 0000007d
   t4 =        83 00000053
