March 5 The budget for the Grant Center assumes a linear relationship between the number of student visitors and the daily operating cost of the center. Some sample (number of students‚ operating cost) values are given in the table below. Number of Students 0 10 20 40 Daily Operating Cost $450 $600 $750 $1‚050 a. Use the given data to write an equation showing how operating cost‚ C‚ depends on the number of students‚ x. Explain or show how you found the equation. For parts (b)–(d)‚ write

took place at midnight due to the long commute)‚ but also to allow us to have more data about the incoming demand. To determine the proper level of order quantity and reorder point‚ we did a simple forecasting of incoming demand by using a simple linear regression analysis of observed demand for the first 50 days. Using this data we determined that the reorder point must be increased to 45 and the order quantity should be set at 250 kits. When we did

The minimum transverse femoral shaft diameter and the minimum anterior-posterior femoral shaft where measured on a small sample of an archaeological population from Poulton‚ Cheshire‚ along with the maximum femur length for each sample. Simple linear regression analysis was performed and the results showed that the minimum transverse femoral shaft diameter correlated significantly in both males (R2=.635‚ p=0.006) and females (R2=0.88‚ p=≤0.001) with maximum femur length. The minimum anterior-posterior

CHAPTER I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction Business firms whether small or big has engaged several challenges before and after its growth. It undergoes study of the entire business. Efficient and effective decisions in business are needed to implement every day. The business manager has the responsibility to make decisions for the improvement of the company. To make this be possible‚ forecasting of sales is necessary. Sales forecast is a prediction based on past sales performance

parameters There are 3 key decisions: • Relative index • Date range • Period or returns interval Raw vs. adjusted beta The beta of a stock can be presented as either an adjusted or raw beta. Raw beta‚ also known as historical beta‚ is obtained from linear regression based on the observed relationship between the security’s return (using historical data) and the returns on an index. The adjusted beta is an estimate of a security’s future beta. It is initially derived from historical data‚ but is modified

Minoan Pottery Minoan pottery is found around the Aegean Sea which is an arm in the Mediterranean. . The earliest pottery from the Minoan civilization focuses with practicality and function. Later‚ as the styles mature‚ the pieces become more refined and sophisticated. There are three phases of Minoan pottery. Early‚ 3650-2160 BCE‚ Middle‚ 2160-1600 BCE‚ and Late‚ 1600-1070 BCE. Each phase correspond with cultural shifts within the civilization. Some phases build on previously styles. As the

Introduction Tropical island reef flats serve as habitats for a diverse range of organisms. Among these organisms is an abundance of macroalgae. Macroalgae may even be numerous enough to comprise most of the benthic area near a reef (Carpenter 1986‚ Villaça et al. 2010‚ Hay 1981). The large presence of macroalgae corresponds to a large role as primary producers (Carpenter 1986). Thus‚ these organisms can play an important part in marine food webs. Aside from the effects of herbivores‚ macroalgae

3.4 Thermal Effect Shear strain In general‚ increase in temperature causes the atoms to vibrate more and makes average atomic spacing greater. Macroscopically‚ this will lead to dimension increase in solid: T + T +V T – T – V In an isotropic material‚ temperature change only introduces variation of direct (normal) strain. In other words‚ thermal deformation does not cause shear strain. where T0 is a reference temperature and = coefficient of thermal expansion (C)-1 Hooke’s
