Theory of Parabolas By Amergin McDavid A parabola is designed on a basic formula‚ Y=ax^2+bx+c‚ which allows it to achieve a curve not seen in a normal line graphed using a Y=mx+b format. To the left is a graph who’s formula is y=x^2‚ where a=1‚ b=0‚ and c=0. I have isolated the (a) factor to see its effects on the parabola. Below is a graph where I have changed the (a) multiple times. The result is that as the (a) decreases‚ the mouth of the parabola widens due to the fact that (a) is essentially

The Bathtub Curve and Product Failure Behavior Part One - The Bathtub Curve‚ Infant Mortality and Burn-in by Dennis J. Wilkins Retired Hewlett-Packard Senior Reliability Specialist‚ currently a ReliaSoft Reliability Field Consultant This paper is adapted with permission from work done while at Hewlett-Packard. Reliability specialists often describe the lifetime of a population of products using a graphical representation called the bathtub curve. The bathtub curve consists of three periods: an

Straight lines create depth and distance. Curves create anguish and messiness of life The colours represent the artist’s feelings. Blood red represents feared and anger Blue – cold and sadness Sadness‚ grief‚ loneliness‚ deep depression is all available to be seen in the painting.

almost perfect straight line‚ although‚ human error could have effected the outcome because of mistakes measuring‚ as well as plotting of the data on the graph. The velocity versus time graph came out to be a quadratic model‚ having a number of curves. Since this is based off of original measurements‚ any mistakes in measuring would have been multiplied when the velocity was calculated‚ so human error could be prevalent here as well. Conclusion Our hypothesis was only partially supported. The

interconnected objects are represented by mathematical abstractions called vertices‚ and the links that connect some pairs of vertices are called edges.[1]Typically‚ a graph is depicted in diagrammatic form as a set of dots for the vertices‚ joined by lines or curves for the edges. Graphs are one of the objects of study in discrete mathematics. Line graph is a graph that uses line segments to connect data points and shows changes in data over time. A bar graph displays data visually and is sometimes called

The demand curve is the graph depicting the relationship between the price of a certain commodity and the amount of it that consumers are willing and able to purchase at that given price. It is a graphic representation of a demand schedule. The demand curve for all consumers together follows from the demand curve of every

experienced many hardships from the British‚ and at multiple times were let down from what they estimated they were deserving of. The “J curve” is known as a diagram indicating the climbing up and the sudden down of any idea‚ or action. The “J curve” is an accurate representation of the colonist’s expectations at the time of the “oppressive” British. The “J curve” seems to center around two main points for the colonists. The first was the wars they fought‚ the outcomes‚ and the government and the

The Bell Curve The opinions of Herrnstein and Murray in their book‚ The Bell Curve is that human intelligence is both inherited and also has environmental factors that contribute to a person’s future in many different areas such as; finances‚ a career‚ when they start a family‚ and whether or not a person will break the law instead of a person’s level of education and economic status. The authors go on to say that the more intelligent people of society are keeping their distance from the less

THE S-CURVE Introduction The first time most project managers become aware of the existence of S Curves is when they are requested by the client or senior management to include one in their next progress report. The following explains what the mysterious S Curve is‚ why it is an important project management tool‚ and how to generate one. What is a S Curve? A S Curve is defined as "a display of cumulative costs‚ labour hours or other quantities plotted against time. The name derives from
