software can model a particular experimental curve, trace velocity vectors, derive functions, etc. It also allows comparing diverse set of data from the same experiment and finding highlights the influence of parameters. It can be applied to signal processing, chemistry or mechanics. The aim is to be able to keep record of data collected from experiments, to present it on a graph, and also to apply some ready function to it (such as curve fitting). In the example above, as part of a physics tutorial

Explain the five steps for solving rational equations. Can any of these steps be eliminated? Can the order of these steps be changed? Would you add any steps to make rational equations easier to complete or understand? - Find the LCD of the terms in the equation. - Multiply each side of the equation by the LCD. - Simplify each term. - Solve the resulting equation. - Check each answer in the given equation. Any value that makes a denominator equal 0 should be rejected because it is an extraneous

important will be graphing, log functions and functions, domains and ranges. 2d. Explain why. a. I see very little use of applying graphing techniques to my future field. Also, the only time I have ever used log functions was in a chemistry class, which I do not anticipate taking again. Lastly, the areas of functions, domains and ranges I will probably not have much application in my future 3a. Can you think of one real-world example of when the concept of functions

1. Table 8.1 shows results of an eight-center clinical trial to compare a drug to placebo for curing an infection. At each center, subjects were randomly assigned to two groups. Table 8.1 Clinical Trial Data for Problem 1 a. Perform two different tests (Breslow-Day, and likelihood ratio test) for whether the drug effect on curing an infection is the same over eight centers. i) Breslow-Day test: The B-D test of homogeneity tests for whether the drug effect on curing an infection

In another word, the variation in asset prices refer to the change in household's wealth. We call the causal effect of exogenous changes in wealth upon consumption behavior as the wealth effect (Karl E. Case, John M. Quigley and Robert J. Shiller, 2001). In daily life, the house

GENERAL PHYSICS I EXPERIMENT NO. 5 FORCE TABLE — ADDITION AND RESOLUTION OF VECTORS INTRODUCTION Forces add together as vectors. For example, if two or more forces act at a point, a single force may act as the equivalent of the combination of forces. The resultant R of the sum of two force vectors A and B is a single force which produces the same effect as the two forces, when these pass through a common point (see figure). The equilibrant E is a force equal and opposite to the resultant. A vector

Question 1. What is the effect of changing lambda (λ) in the discrete model, and r in the continuous model? What is the effect of changing N0 in both models? (2 marks) When in discrete mode, a change in lambda (λ) will change the growth rate of the species. If λ increases, so does the growth rate and if λ decreases, as will the growth rate. However, the growth rate only increases if the number is above 1. 1 itself indicates no growth and below one is negative growth. The same principle applies to

A fuzzy logic approach to urban land-use mapping Henning Sten Hansen National Environmental Research Institute, Ministry of Environment & Energy Frederiksborgvej 399, DK-4000, Roskilde, Denmark Phone : +45 46 30 18 07 Fax : +45 46 30 12 12 HSH@DMU.DK Abstract. The growth of cities represents huge problems for modern societies. Monitoring, analysing and modelling the urban dynamic call for detailed mapping of urban land-use. Traditionally, urban land-use mapping is based on orthophotos and satellite
