First‚ co-owner Amit wants to forecast by exponential smoothing by initially setting February’s forecast equal to January’s sales with α=1. Co-owner Barbara wants to use a three-period moving average. 1. Is there a strong lineal trend in sales over time? 2. Fill in the table with what Amit

number representing the power a given number is raised to. Exponential functions are used to either express growth or decay. When a function is raised to a positive exponent‚ it will cause growth. However‚ when a function is raised to a negative exponent‚ it will cause decay. Logarithms work differently than exponents. Logarithms represent what power a base should be raised to in order to produce a specific given number. Logarithmic and exponential functions are often used together because they are inverse

that is written first and negative half is written second. Subscripts are small numbers to the lower right of a symbol. They the number of atoms of that element in the compound. Coefficients are large numbers to the left of formulas in chemical equations. They represent the ratio of molecules of each substance involved in a chemical reaction. Weight Percentage is a percentage based on weights. Mole percentage is a percentage based on the numbers of atoms or moles. Formula units is the simplest

shows practical problems as a series of mathematical equations which can be manipulated to find the optimum or best solution. Blending is a graphical approach to linear programming which deals with resource allocation subject to constraints. It is a model which assists firms in deciding the best possible utilisation of limited resources. Each resource constraint is represented as a mathematical linear equation. A linear expression is an equation which links two variables‚ and if plotted on a graph
