For the following problems, you will be using making modifications to the MIPS instruction set architecture.

If the instruction set of the MIPS processor is modified, the instruction format must also be changed. For each of the suggested changes above, what is the impact on the range of addresses for a jump instruction? Assume that instructions remain 32 bits long and any changes made to the instruction format of J-type instructions only impact the address field of the jump instruction.
