the constraint that vL+rK=C. Note that maximizing a monotonically increasing function of a variable is equivalent to maximizing the variable itself. Therefore ln(Q)=(2/3)ln(L)+(1/3)ln(K)‚ a more convenient expression‚ is the same as maximizing Q. Therefore the objective function for the optimization problem is ln(Q)=(2/3)ln(L)+(1/3)ln(K). Step 1: Form the Langrangian function by subtracting from the objective function a multiple of the difference between the cost of the resources and the budget

Experiment 3: Projectile Range Versus Angle EQUIPMENT NEEDED – Mini Launcher and steel ball – Plumb bob – Measuring tape or meter stick – Carbon paper – Graph paper – White paper Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to find how the range of the ball depends on the angle at which it is launched. The angle that gives the greatest range is determined for two cases: launching on level ground and launching off a table. Theory The range is the horizontal distance‚ x

There are a number of factors that can contribute to the growth of a population and these trends can be seen in a number of species. It is generally believed‚ from an ecological perspective‚ that populations will display either an exponential of logistic growth rate. If optimal environments are consistently maintained with no biotic or abiotic limiting factors (excess food‚ excess space availability‚ optimum climactic environment‚ no predation‚ etc) then a population will grow in an exponential

In mathematics‚ the exponential function is the function ex‚ where e is the number (approximately 2.718281828) such that the function ex is its own derivative.[1][2] The exponential function is used to model a relationship in which a constant change in the independent variable gives the same proportional change (i.e. percentage increase or decrease) in the dependent variable. The function is often written as exp(x)‚ especially when it is impractical to write the independent variable as a superscript
