Maggy Schieffer BA 3352 – 004 HW 2 Chapter 2: 4. a. 80 carts/hr / 5 workers = 16 carts per hour per worker 84 carts/hr / 4 workers = 21 carts per hour per worker b. 80 carts/hr / ($10/hr *5(workers) + $40/hr (machine)) = 0.89 carts per $1 84 carts/hr / ($10/hr *4(workers) + $50/hr (machine)) = 0.93 carts per $1 c. The labor productivity is much greater after the new machine is introduced, increasing 5 carts per worker. In the multi factor productivity the number of carts

solution here. 2. (a) We should start by simplifying: f (x) = 3x2 (x + 2)(x − 1) 3x4 + 3x3 − 6x2 = = x3 − 8x2 + 16x x(x − 4)2 3x(x + 2)(x − 1) . Now, vertical asymptotes can potentially occur at zeroes of the de(x − 4)2 nominator of a rational function. So we set the denominator equal to 0: (x − 4)2 = 0 =⇒ x = 4. So x = 4 is a potential vertical asymptote. Because of our simplification, this should be a vertical asymptote, but we should look at lim f (x) to be sure. But x→4 216 . Already this is

Which is the best opportunity to pursue further? Darian Holdings Limited Why? Although 40% has already been taken up (leaving the founders with less skin in the game) and current European Logistics Companies are testing remote and unattended delivery solutions, there are several benefits for pursuing this opportunity: - The business addresses the hassle for both paying customers and logistics players – customers don’t have to wait for re-delivery date and logistic providers don’t have to dispatch

Definition: Consider an i.i.d. random sample X1, . . . , Xn, where each Xi has p.d.f./p.m.f. f (x). Further, suppose that θ is some unknown parameter from Xi. The likelihood function is L(θ) ≡ n f (xi). i=1 Definition: The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of θ is the value of θ that maximizes L(θ). The MLE is a function of the Xi’s and is therefore a RV. 2 7.31 MLE’s and MOM Easy Examples iid Example: Suppose X1, . . . , Xn ∼ Exp(λ). MLE for λ. L(λ) = n i=1 f (xi) = n

Trigonometric Functions of any Angle When evaluating any angle θ , in standard position, whose terminal side is given by the coordinates (x,y), a reference angle is always used. Notice how a right triangle has been created. This will allow us to evaluate the six trigonometric functions of any angle. Notice the side opposite the angle θ has a length of the y value of the given coordinates. The adjacent side has a length of the x value of the coordinates. The length of the hypotenuse is given

urine suggesting that JH’s condition is progressing to renal failure. 3. What additional physical or laboratory findings would be helpful in determining JH’s degree of renal impairment? Creatinine clearance is helpful in determining general kidney function. A level above 1.2 is reduced and indicates renal impairment. The kidneys' ability to handle creatinine is called the creatinine clearance rate, which helps to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). This rate will give a general overview
