Logical Operations and Truth Tables At first glance, it may not seem that the study of logic should be part of mathematics. For most of us, the word logic is associated with reasoning in a very nebulous way: "If my car is out of gas, then I cannot drive it to work." seems logical enough, while "If I am curious, then I am yellow." is clearly illogical. Yet our conclusions about what is or is not logical are most often unstructured and subjective. The purpose of logic is to enable the logician

Student: Natalie Hallinan Review of Bent Flyvbjerg’s book Making Social Science Matter: Why social Inquiry fails and how it can succeed again Advanced Organisation and management Theorising 1 The “science wars” of the mid to late 1990s appears to have been an ideological contest of wills between the natural and social sciences. The natural science ‘camp’ included such heavyweights as a Nobel prize-winning physicist and a Harvard biologist and geneticist. The latter, R.C. Lewontin in

Jennifer Dominguez MAT221: Introduction to Algebra (ACP1424E) Instructor: Calandra Bean Assignment week 1 June 16,2014 P.1 · 2a(a – 5) + 4(a – 5) First I would start by simplifying the equation with multiplying 2a to the numbers within the parenthesis. So it would be 2a times, a which would be 2a squared because you would put a one in front of the a in the parenthesis. Then you would multiply 2a times five, which would be -10a. Then you would multiply four times (a) which

1. Modern Electronics specializes in manufacturing modern electronic components. It also builds the equipment that produces the components. Modern Electronics is considering building a new facility but the estimated profits would be impacted by the type of market that develops. The probability for a strong market is 0.3; for a fair market is 0.5; and for a poor market is 0.2. You are responsible for advising the president of Modern Electronics on the type facility that should be built or to not

Fall 2007 The Euro Watch Company assembles expensive wristwatches and then sells them to retailers throughout Europe. The watches are assembled at a plant with two assembly lines. These lines are intended to be identical, but line 1 uses somewhat older equipment than line 2 and is typically less reliable. Historical data have shown that each watch coming off line 1, independently of the others, is free of defects with probability 0.98. The similar probability for line 2 is 0.99. Each line produces
