Linear A

2.5. Statistical analysis Multivariate analysis was performed using two algorithms: PCA and 2-D HCA heat map. The PCA, based on the correlation matrix, was performed using XLStat-Pro 2015 software. The 2-D HCA heat map was carried out with the ArrayTrack, and the Ward's minimum-variance method was used for runs and hydrocarbons clustering. A probability level of p=0.05 was considered as significant difference. The data obtained from the RSM on the hydrocarbon removal were subjected to the…

Sriman for your timely help” acknowledged Riya. 1. What are the elements considered by Sriman to suggest LP formulation for this advertisement problem? 2. Do you think that the linear programming would be really helpful to Riya in decision making? How? 2.2.1 General Mathematical model of Linear Programming Problem A linear programming problem that has ‘m’ decision variables and ‘k’ constraints is mathematically represented as follows: LPP is an optimisation technique, the objective function…

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK AND RESEARCH METHODOLOGY In this chapter, the theoretical framework for the study and its methodology are presented here. Basically, it contains the model specification, model estimation techniques and sources and nature of data. The sample periods of the study span from 1980 to 2013. It is a period of 34 years. 3.1 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK Remittances are income transfers likely to affect wages and employment both at the household and macroeconomics levels. If leisure is…

This paper will study the relationship between a country’s perceived amount of corruption, and how that affects the wages of its domestic workers. The premise behind this paper is that a country that is perceived as being dishonest and corrupt would have lower wages. Corruption in government is seemingly always present in our world. This paper will try to determine if there is a correlation between a country’s perceived corruption and the monthly disposable income its workers earn with…

Variance Decomposition Analysis The variance decomposition analysis has applied to quantify the extent up to which the selected indices one influenced by each other. We can also examine the short run dynamic relationship by variance decomposition. While impulse response functions trace the effects of a shock to one endogenous variable in the VAR, variance decomposition separates the variation in an endogenous variable in to the component shocks to the VAR. Thus, the variance decomposition…

FastCat Compensation Case Phase 2: External Competitiveness Presented to Oliver Stoutner, M.B.A. HR Practicum I: Compensation and Benefits MGT 4250-01 Presented By Morgan Tullis Kimberly Bowers Ashlie Hawes Travis Stone Rachel Kipling Step 1: Recommend Strategy for Competitiveness When determining a compensation strategy for FastCat, we decided the best option would be to have a job-based structure. The reason for this is that we want to focus on our internal pay structure and measure them…

1. The Bronze Age Civilization of the Aegean took place during ca. 3000-1200 B.C.E This time period consisted of two civilizations, the Minoan (ca. 2000-1400 B.C.E.) and the Mycenaean (ca. 1600-1200 B.C.E). On the island of Crete, the Minoan civilization was centered in the palace of Minos at Knossos. This culture was thriving and traveled by sea quiet often. The palace consisted of frescoes demonstrating numerous aspect of Cretan life. Of all the frescoes in the palace the most recognized is…

We began our analysis by first examining the data provided to us in the Excel file. We were given the percent of customs who purchased Harry Potter book 7 and what price they paid. We then graphed the data points using a scatter plot to identify a trend. In order to determine the predicted sales for the Harry Potter sequel we first had to use a power regression. A regression is a technique that attempts to measure the relationship between the outcome variable and the explanatory variables, or…

T.T.M Kannan et al. [2014] performed the experiment on AISI 316 Austenite stainless steel to investigate the heat partition, tool wear and tool life. In their investigation they found that CBN cutting inserts has been damaged in moderate cutting velocity and produce good machinability and higher cutting temperature decreases the yield strength of produced white layer. [11] R.Suresh et al. [2014] studied the effect of various cutting parameters in hard turning of AISI H13 steel at 55 HRC with…

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus evaluate an antiderivative at the upper and lower limits of integration and take the difference. This theorem is separated into two parts. The first part is called the first fundamental theorem of calculus and states that one of the antiderivatives of some function may be obtained as the integral of the function with a variable bound of integration. The second part of the theorem, called the second fundamental theorem of…
