See explaination

Step-by-step explanation:

Ans(11) mv report7 ../

Here ../ represents parent directory.

Ans(12) cp -r . ../

here r represent recursion. So this command recursively copies from the current folder to parent folder.

Ans(13) Three diffrent ways possible

1. mkdir Location/Junkyard

2. cd Location

mkdir Junkyard

3. Simplest ways to create a directory is without command : just go into Location directory and create a new folder Junkyard by right clicking with mouse.

Ans(14) After ending the v i session . I will be in home directory.

In simple terms, you will come back to the directory where you have started.

Ans(4) We have to copy that file to subdirectory Projects.

cp users_on /Projects

Now when we list the home directory and Projects directory we can see the users_on file.
