    Consider two program segments. The first segment computes wage = hours * tariff, then if hours >= 40, recalculates wage = (hour - 40) * tariff * 0.5, ending the if. The second segment, joined to the first with AND, states that if hours > 40 then wage = (hour - 40) * tariff * 0.5, else wage = hours * tariff, ending the if. State whether it is true or false that these two program segments will render the same result.Show the full question
