To find the equation of a tangent to a curve: 1) find the derivative‚ 2) find the gradient‚ m‚ of the tangent by substituting in the x-ccordinate of the point; 3) use one of the following formulae to get the equation of the tangent: EITHER y = mx + c OR To find the equation of a normal to a curve: 1) find the derivative ; 2) Substitute in the x-coordinate of the point to find the value of the gradient there. 3) the gradient of the normal is . 4) Use one of the following formulae to get

Cost leadership and differentiation strategies are popular research topics within the field of strategy and have been widely discussed‚ in particular since Michael Porter presented his model of generic strategies in 1980. Some rearchers‚ in fact‚ refer to this model as being among the most significant contributions to the strategic management literature. Whether cost leadership and differentiation strategies are mutually exclusive is a far less discussed issue however‚ as evidenced by the relatively

SMITH Alderson & Sessions decade the 1930’s‚ the work of D URING theRobinsonofand ofChamberlin resulted in a revitalization economic theory. While classical and neoclassical theory provided a useful framework for economic analysis‚ the theories of perfect competition and pure monopoly had become inadequate as explanations of the contemporary business scene. The theory of perfect competition assumes homogeneity

are many producers and customers in a given market‚ and the producers have a degree of control over the price of the products (Wikipedia). Fast food companies have the ability to set there own price without losing customers because of product differentiation. For example‚ pretend you are the owner of a Chinese restaurant in the food court of the mall. Also in the food court are several burger joints and a Mexican restaurant. There are several things to factor when determining the price of your

Product differentiation is a marketing strategy that creates differences from other competiting products by focusing on its unique characteristics and features. The organizations target one market segment or the entire market by using this strategy. (Cravens‚ p110) The coca cola company has introduced Coke Zero as new product and focused to make it different from other products. The company has introduced Coke Zero to compete Pepsi Max and has become the most successful product in the history of

Andra Picus‚ a literary analysist‚ said the psychoanalytic approach can be applied to literature to better understand it the same way dreams

C2 differentiation Maximum points‚ minimum points and points of inflection All 3 types of point are easy enough to spot on a graph: • Maximum points are the tops of ‘peaks’ • Minimum points are bottoms of ‘troughs’ • Points of inflection are where a curve stops turning ‘left’ and starts turning ‘right’ (or vice versa). An example is the point (0‚1) on the curve [pic]+1 Notes (i) Any point on a curve where the gradient is zero can be

Differentiation In this short essay I intend to explain the meaning of differentiation.... In order to fully explain differentiation it is important to turn to The National Curriculum and look at what has become known as the ‘general inclusion statement’. This statement contains a statement that defines inclusion as “a demand on teachers not to ignore the three principles of inclusion (below) in their planning” Session 1 / Inclusion‚ the individual and the environment. In short‚ these three
