Linear A

continuously by the same number, it would be said to be a linear function. Common examples of linear function would be distance traveled over time for objects traveling at constant speed; cost of gas in relation to gallons used. Certain situations are linear or not based on whether or not the rate of change is constant or varies. Linear systems are represented by f(x) = mx + b; the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b). In a table that represents a linear function, the input and out puts will be a…

First, the variable Percentage Black Students had a medium negative correlation (r = -0.59) to QDI. A linear regression analysis using Black Student Percentage as the independent variable and QDI the dependent variable resulted in a linear regression equation with a y-intercept of 163.11 and a slope of -0.27, which is statistically significant due to a p value of 0.01. The results of the regression analysis for these variables…

Since all the mechanisms needed to adhere to pre-set design specifications¬¬, space, functionality, and cost had to be optimized. A scissor lift was chosen for its perceived advantage over other lifting mechanisms, such as linear actuators or pulleys, because of its unique ability to create a large vertical change in height with a relatively small lateral displacement of arm brackets. A pulley was not implemented because of the impractically and safety hazard behind using…

The survey instrument created for this study includes relational questions to discover whether one or more working conditions predicts teacher retention and whether the absence of one or more working conditions predicts the likelihood a teacher will leave teaching or migrate to a new building. The survey contains both Likert-type scaled response ratings and demographic questions designed to identify teacher characteristics such as grade level. There are four constructs in this study: academics…

of linear perspective during 15th Century Italy. As with any new technique, the use of linear perspective took a while to advance and become the mathematically based depth cue that people now know it as. In the beginning, it was simply the slight convergence of lines, not always to the same vanishing point. This convergence of lines gave viewers of this new artistic technique, the suggestion that one object was in front of another. (Stokstad, 2014) There are many theories about how linear…

in which linear perspective plays an important part in the overall composition of the painting, discuss how the system was employed to create a desired illusion of depth, and what the artist wants to communicate through this. By: Bernice Seow The Renaissance was the period between the 14th to 17th century that originated in Italy and spread to the rest of Europe. Under its emphasis on humanism – a positive stance on human freedom and thought- the artistic technique of linear…

Linear perspective art is the art of using lines to create a visual illusion as if something is getting smaller in the distance. The first artist known to use lines to create a different image was Fillipo Brunelleschi an architect in 1415. His painting depicted a cathedral with an unfinished gate, he used vanishing points to create the illusion that the path was disappearing off into the distance. Brunelleschi created the system on a two dimensional plane and used vanishing points and lines, to…

Introduction What is innovation? A using of new ideas to products, processes and other aspects of a firm activities lead to an increasing in value of the firm, benefits to customers or other enterprise, this situation is called innovation. A key issue to distinguish innovation, bringing a truly novel item that is produced by new techniques and designs into market; this item can be new to the firm, new to relevant market. Moreover, whether relevant market is domestic or global market is based…

LINEAR WAVE THEORY Linear wave theory can be defined as first-order, small amplitude gravity wave with a sinusoidal shape. This theory has been developed by Airy in 1845. It is easy to apply and give reasonable approximation of wave characteristic for a wide range of wave parameters. However, in some situations, waves are better described by higher order theories or also referred as finite-amplitude wave theories. Although there are limitations to its application, linear theory is still useful…

Francisco Gutierrez 03.03 Linear Functions 1. The equation we have is 2x+3y=1200. The first thing you would need to do in the equation is subtract 2x to both sides. 2x cancels out and now we subtract 2x and 1200. You would end up getting 3y=2x-1200. Then finally, you would have to divide everything by -3. Your final answer for this question is y=-2/3x+400. Your slope is -2/3 and your y-intercept is 400. 2. So we know that our slope is -2/3 and the y-intercept is 400. You have one point on the…
