minutes per patient. Among patients who receive prescriptions‚ average time spent with a doctor is 5 minutes. Among those admitted to the hospital‚ average time is 30 minutes. (a) On average‚ how long does a patient spend in the ER? (b) On average‚ how many patients are being examined by doctors? (c) On average‚ how many patients are there in the ER? Assume the process to be stable; that is‚ average inflow rate equals average outflow rate. Problem 2 (exercise 3.5) A triage system has been proposed

rounding modes and five exceptions (Michael L Overton). 2. How floating point numbers are stored in memory An IEEE-754 float (4 bytes) or double (8 bytes) has three components (there is also an analogous 96-bit extended-precision format under IEEE-854): a sign bit telling whether the number is positive or negative‚ an exponent giving its order of magnitude‚ and a mantissa specifying the actual digits of the number. Using single-precision floats as an example‚ here is the bit layout: seeeeeeeemmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The effect of water and fertilizer on corn seedlings Biology 1108 Lab Section November 7‚ 2012 Abstract The effect of water and fertilizer on corn seedlings was examined. It was hypothesized before the experiment that enough water with sunlight and air should make the plants grow healthy. It has to do with photosynthesis. Fertilizer is also going to make the plants grow much faster; this is because of the nutrients in it. The experiment took about four to six weeks to complete; it took some

Theory The first experiment focused on the concept of errors and uncertainties that are obtained during measurements. For an experiment to be successful‚ especially those that involve measurements‚ the number of significant figures must be known. Significant figures are the digits required to express a measured quantity and thus reflect the accuracy of the measurement. Uncertainty is defined as the smallest increment that can be measured and is defined by the instrument used. An error is defined

Porters Five Forces of the Retail Industry I. Supplier Power The bargaining power of Suppliers is relatively low. There is a high competition between suppliers which means that their ability to raise prices or reduce quantity is very low.
