Week 1 Linear Functions * As you hop into a taxicab in Kuala Lumpur, the meter will immediately read RM3.30; this is the “drop” charge made when the taximeter is activated. After that initial fee, the taximeter will add RM2.40 for each kilometer the taxi drives. In this scenario, the total taxi fare depends upon the number of kilometer ridden in the taxi, and we can ask whether it is possible to model this type of scenario with a function. As you hop into a taxicab in Kuala Lumpur, the meter

and differential coefficient. I also learned some basic theories and the application of related concepts, such as differential coefficient of function of one variable, calculus, partial derivative of function of many variables, differential equation, and Taylor's formula, intermediate value theorem and infinite series which help me to know the nature of function, and the independent vector algebra and space analytic geometry. To be honest, I even made more efforts in the study of mathematics than that

the set of integers and[pic]. F(x) is a one-to-one function if we can show that: For [pic] and[pic], [pic]=[pic]===> [pic]=[pic] Let’s find out: [pic]==> [pic]=[pic], and [pic]=[pic] So, [pic]=[pic]==> [pic]=[pic]. Subtracting 101 on both sides gives [pic]==> [pic]=[pic]. Since we’re able to show that [pic]=[pic] ==> [pic]=[pic], we then conclude that [pic] is a one-to-one function. 2. Let’s prove that [pic] is a one-to-one function. To prove that, we have to show that For [pic] and[pic]

maeSome Implications of Belief in the Afterlife and the Allocation of Time to Spirituality∗ Constantino Hevia† University of Chicago September 2004 Abstract An otherwise standard model of intertemporal consumer choice is extended to incorporate the allocation of time to spiritual activities along the lines of the human capital literature. Several testable implications are analyzed. We study exogenous and endogenous changes in life expectancy, and we argue that the traditional value of life or

Elliptic curve cryptography is a public key cryptographic method. It is a cryptographic method based on elliptic curves over finite fields. The elliptic curves defined over finite fields are used in elliptic curve cryptography since a practical digital system can handle only finite number of values. In finite fields the binary extensions fields are ideal, because of the ease with which they can be implemented in a digital system in comparison with other finite fields. The main advantage of elliptic
