Backward Bending Slutsky Equation In the Labor Supply Model‚ consumer has a choice between consumption and leisure. If they were to reduce their leisure and allocate more time working‚ they will be able to consume more. The amount of labor and consumption are determined by the interaction of consumer’s preferences and budget constraint. In this model‚ the utility function to be maximized is U(C‚L)‚ where individual cares about consumption (C) and leisure (L). The utility function is subjected

In the poem “An Equation for My Children” by Wilmer Mills‚ the speaker wants to find out the relationship between his family life and mathematics. Initially‚ the speaker reveals his fascination with Pythagoras’ work‚ which inspired him to go on a quest to finding out how his family life revolved around Pythagoras’ complex theorems. Along the way‚ the speaker finds his investigation so elusive that it feels as if he asked Pythagoras himself to calculate the mathematical equation of a “music tuning

9/12/10 IMP POW Linear Nim In this POW‚ we had to play a game called Linear Nim. In this game‚ we drew 10 lines on a paper‚ and we had to take turns crossing out 1‚ 2‚ or 3 of the marks. The person that crossed out the last mark was the winner. The first task of this POW was to find a winning strategy for this game. After we found this out‚ we were supposed to make variations to the game‚ for instance starting with more or less marks‚ or allowing a player to cross out more or less marks. We were

The Central Police Department had recently been criticized in the local media for not responding to police calls in the downtown area rapidly enough. In several recent cases‚ alarms had sounded for break-ins‚ but by the time the police car arrived‚ the perpetrators had left‚ and in one instance a store owner had been shot. Sergeant Davies had been assigned by the chief to find a way to determine the optimal patrol area (dimensions) for their cars that would minimize the average time it took to respond
