A software development firm is designing two new programs:

  • Program X is a utility that automates disk defragmentation and schedules system recovery points.
  • Program Y is an interactive financial modeling package used by accountants to run tax simulations.

Classify each program as either systems software or application software, and justify your classifications by explaining the differing primary purposes of these two software categories.
