Is my interrupt chip diagram correct?

Question: your computer CPU is connected to an interrupt chip which has 8 interrupt lines as shown below and the lower the line number is, the higher the priority of the line is. You want to connect a real time clock or timer, a keyboard and a mouse so that the timer has the highest priority, then the keyboard and finally the mouse. You also want to add two joysticks with the same priority but lower than the mouse. Draw a diagram to show how you will connect the real time clock, keyboard, mouse and 2 joysticks.

This is what I did below. But it seems too easy...?

It looks like a homework/class assignment/question, to me.

But, I agree. They should do the work themselves, and not cheat.
 
Yes.
Attend your course lectures, read the notes and the recommended books.
Then you will be able to answer the questions yourself.
Failing that, ask for help there.

If you just use methods like this, where you don't really know how to do it. It will not be good for your future career .
