  1. I think the following answers are wrong in 19 and 20.

    Question 19 : Ib = Ie – Ic => (100.2 – 100) mili-amps => 0.2 mili-amps
    Ic/Ib = Beta => 100/0.2 = 500

    Question 20 : Ib = Ic/Beta => (10/100) mili-amp => 0.1 mili-amps
    Ie = Ic+Ib => (10 + 0.1) mili-amp => 10.1 mili-amp

  2. Question 19 : Ib = Ie – Ic => (100.2 – 100) mili-amps => 0.2 mili-amps
    Ic/Ib = Beta => 100/0.2 = 500

    Question 20 : Ib = Ic/Beta => (10/100) mili-amp => 0.1 mili-amps
    Ie = Ic+Ib => (10 + 0.1) mili-amp => 10.1 mili-amp
