same argument as above‚ we see that: 5000(0.3) + 10‚ 000(0.8) = The number of people who don’t ride the bus next year. = b2 This system of equations is equivalent to the matrix equation: M x = b where 0.7 0.2 0.3 0.8 5000 10‚ 000 b1 b2 M= 5500 ‚x = and b = . For computing the result after 2 years‚ we just use the same matrix M ‚ however we use b 9500 in place of x. Thus the distribution after 2 years is M b = M 2 x. In fact‚ after n years‚ the distribution is given by M n x. The forgoing

Company using the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) matrix. INTRODUCTION The BCG Growth-Share Matrix is a portfolio-planning model developed by Bruce Henderson of the Boston Consulting Group in the early 1970 ’s. It is based on the observation that a company ’s business units can be classified into four categories based on combinations of market growth and market share relative to the largest competitor‚ hence the name "growth-share". Market growth serves as a proxy for industry attractiveness‚ and

HL Vectors Notes 1. Vector or Scalar Many physical quantities such as area‚ length‚ mass and temperature are completely described once the magnitude of the quantity is given. Such quantities are called “scalars.” Other quantities possess the properties of magnitude and direction. A quantity of this kind is called a “vector” quantity. Winds are usually described by giving their speed and direction; say 20 km/h north east. The wind speed and wind direction together form a vector quantity

December 2011 Vectors Math is everywhere. No matter which way you look at it‚ it’s there. It is especially present in science. Most people don’t notice it‚ they have to look closer to find out what it is really made of. A component in math that is very prominent in science is the vector. What is a vector? A vector is a geometric object that has both a magnitude and a direction. A good example of a vector is wind. 30 MPH north. It has both magnitude‚(in this case speed) and direction. Vectors have specific

Resolution of vector Introduction: The main objective of this lab is to add and resolve vectors using three distinct methods. 1) Graphical: When two forces act upon an object‚ their combined effect can be determined by adding the vectors‚ which represent forces. One method of performing this addition is known as graphical method of vector addition. In this method‚ arrows are drawn in the direction of forces. The lengths of arrows are proportional to the magnitude of vectors. The resultant
