...1a. Answer: (1.0, 228,000), (2.0, 216,000) 1a. Key work steps 1b. Answer: $-12,000 1b. Key work steps Since M= y2-y1/x2-x1 then M= 216,000-228,000/2.0-1.0 M=-12,000/2.0-1.0 M=-12,000/1.0 M=-12,000 1c. Answer: Y= (-12,000)*x+240,000 1c. Key work steps Since Y=mx+b then and do figure m we use the formula m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) I know now what m is in my equation in this situation it’s -12,000 and to figure b is just the Y intercept which in this case is 240,000. So I get my linear equation Y= (-12,000)*x+240,000. 1d. Answer: $126.000 1d. Key work steps Now if this depreciation were to continue until 2019 then we use our formula to determine the value of the plane. Y=(-12,000)*x+240,000 now x is the number of years from the end of our graphing years which was half way through 2009. So in this case x will = 9.5 years now to plug this in. Y=(-12,000)*9.5+240,000 Y=114,000+240,000 Y= $126,000 2a. Answer: L=w-5 2a. Key work steps 2b. Answer: Width= 22.5 inches, Length is 17.5 inches 2b. Key work steps Since p=2L+2W and our equation L=W-5 then P=2(W-5)+2W P=2W-10+2W P=4W-10 We know that in this case P=80 inches so 80=4W-10 80+10=4W-10+10 90=4W 90/4=4W/4 22.5=W and since we know L= W-5 then L= (22.5)-5 L= 17.5 3a. Answer: C= $225+$10(x-2), C=(25x) 3a. Key work steps 3b. Answer:16.3 inches is needed 3b. Key work steps Our inequality for this problem is...

Yet how to motivate learners in the classroom continues to be one of the most puzzling problems confronting the teacher. Let’s look in on Professor Thomas’s learning seminar as his students discuss the topic of motivation. Betty: Well, it seems to me that motivation is becoming the scapegoat for all learning failures. That’s all I hear at school ... “These kids just aren’t motivated” or “This kid just hasn’t any motivation.” And all the other...

...HW 1 Due 2/24/13 – by noon, really at noon. Turn in via SAKAI – do not email it. Turn it into a .pdf file using export or save as. Please do not turn in a .doc or a .docx file. Name your file as follows. Lastname_hw1.pdf - like roman_hw1.pdf A Note about calculations in general, please read. Before turning your work in, it is important to ask yourself whether a calculated answer is within the realm of possibilities, independent of how detailed the calculations required to determine the answer were. For example, if I asked you how long it would take a frozen turkey sitting on your counter to thaw, you could do some fairly complicated calculations. You could consider factors like the temperature of the room, the weight of the turkey, the shape of the turkey, skin or no skin, the humidity, the heat capacity of turkey meat, etc...... If you did a lot of math and got an answer of either 4 seconds or 2 months, you should probably suspect you did something wrong. If your answer was 8 hours, that could seem reasonable given what you've likely observed with popsicles and snowmen. So, the point is, you have to apply some common sense and check your answer. You'll be given more credit on the HW (and in life in general) for admitting your answer seems wrong based on simple logic. Explaining your logic and admitting you got tripped up by the calculation is better than standing by an answer that really make no sense at all.

It requires organizations to operate efficiently while innovates effectively for the future. ‘Managers and leaders within those organizations cannot only be focused on the market success and profitability of each project, but they also need to motivate their employees in order to be profitable and successful.’[1] ‘Motivation is one of the most critical drivers in personal and business success. Without motivation, nothing gets done.’[2] ‘Motivation plays crucial role in achieving goals and business targets and is equally as important for companies that work in team-based environment and in a workplace comprised of people who work independently. It is very important to make sure that each employee's goals and values are aligned with the organization's mission and vision. That is major issue for creating and maintaining a high level of motivation, which often leads to higher productivity, improved quality of work and financial gain.’[3] ‘Motivation is the creation of stimuli, incentives, and working environments which enable people to perform to the best of their ability in pursuit of organizational success.

Written and edited by: Karon Felten and Nutrition 121 TA’s With Special Thanks to: Chris Pritsos Ph.D. Nutrition Department Chairman ABSTRACT: In nutrition, there are many factors that influence an individual’s health and body weight, such as heredity, food selection, eating behaviors, and physical activity. Scale weight is not always a good indicator of body fat, lean mass, body water or overall health (1). This laboratory experience will give students the opportunity to conduct physical assessments by evaluating body weight and body composition. To determine body weight and body composition, techniques such as bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, wrist circumference for determining frame size, and a scale will be utilized. Students will also evaluate their own risk for cardiovascular disease and assess cardiovascular health in volunteers by measuring heart rate, filling out a heart disease risk score form, and estimating oxygen consumption and energy expenditure through a technique known as the Queens College Three-Minute Step Test. BACKGROUND: Your body is made up of the six essential nutrients: water, fat, protein, carbohydrates and various vitamins and minerals. Many factors can influence an individual’s...

...Mathematics Classes 9-10 Chapter One Real Number Mathematics is originated from the process of expressing quantities in symbols or numbers. The history of numbers is as ancient as the history of human civilization. Greek Philosopher Aristotle According to the formal inauguration of mathematics occurs in the practice of mathematics by the sect of priest in ancient Egypt. So, the number based mathematics is the creation of about two thousand years before the birth of Christ. After that, moving from many nations and civilization, numbers and principles of numbers have gained an universal form at present. The mathematicians in India first introduce zero (0) and 10 based place value system for counting natural numbers, which is considered a milestone in describing numbers. Chinese and Indian mathematicians extended the idea zero, real numbers, negative number, integer and fractional numbers which the Arabian mathematicians accepted in the middle age. But the credit of expressing number through decimal fraction is awarded to the Muslim Mathematicians. Again they introduce first the irrational numbers in square root form as a solution of the quadratic equation in algebra in the 11th century. According to the historians, very near to 50 BC the Greek Philosophers also felt the necessity of irrational number for drawing geometric figures, especially for the square root of 2. In the 19th century European Mathematicians gave the real numbers a complete shape...
