Genealogists photograph tombstones to document the birth, death and burial information of their ancestors. This post will give you some tips on how to get the best possible results when taking those important pictures. Locating Cemeteries Your first challenge might well be just getting to the cemetery. Hopefully you have an obituary or burial record for your ancestor that gives the name of the cemetery. Depending on how old the record is, finding the cemetery can be very easy or impossible.…
Related rates are used in a wide variety of different scenarios from finding how large a spill is increasing, to how fast it may take to empty something. Related rates deal with time, usually have two different variables like height, length, radius, or width; and have something that is changing like area, distance, or volume. In order to solve related rates problems you need to be able to recall or have access to basic geometry formulas like circle, cone, cylinder, rectangle, triangle and…
the percentage of rank retained. The criteria to select the cut-off rank $k_{c}$ is based on the observation that $\delta(\hat{k})$ tends to be linear as the contributes of each eigenbackgrounds tend to be equal, i.e. for a fairly uncorrelated noise. Fig.\ref{Sigma_FIG}.b shows the cut-off rank obtained by imposing a tolerance on the second derivative $d^2 \delta/ d \hat{k}^2<10^-3$. For the examples…
The immense history of Greece could not be possible for the impressive and influential city-states located throughout the regions. Mycenae, Knossos, and Troy are three revered and questioned palatial sites that operated in similar and opposing ways. In the late 1800s, three archaeologists excavated their ways into the history books. Sir Arthur Evans became recognized as the British archaeologist who uncovered the palace at Knossos, on the island of Crete in the Aegean Sea. Heinrich Schliemann…
The Minoan Palace and the Micenaean Citadel both have walls that protect them. However, they are both very distinct. Minoan Chronology has two main periods. The “old palace” period lasted from about 1900 to 1700 BCE while the “New Palace” period started around 1700 and it lasted until 1450 BCE. Sir Arthur Evans excavated the complex at Knossos in 1900 CE. The walls of the palace are practically earthquake-proof while the lower walls have dressed stone. Minoans created all kinds of extravagant…
1.What does a supply curve illustrate? What would make the supply curve shift? Provide two examples from the market for orange juice where supply contracts (curve shifts left). The supply curve illustrates the how much the sellers are willing to supply a good at different prices, as the price goes up the supply will increase and as the price goes down the supply will decrease. The supply curve shifts because of changes in costs or technology innovations, these changes can shift the supply curve…
To: Bipul Chakraborty From: Sajal Nazir, Consultant Re: Tata Steel Zoological Park Problem Statement: This report will assist Bipul Chakraborty, the new Director of the Tata Steel Zoological Park, in determining how the triple bottom-line framework can be incorporated into the business model; where the zoo can become a profitable and self-sufficient business venture, while also meeting its conservational, environmental and social objectives. Key Issues: The zoo is facing a profitability…
Elasticity has been described as the degree of responsiveness of the quantity demanded relative to the factors that influence the quantity demanded (“Definition of Elasticity”, n.d.). There are two types of elasticity, the elasticity of demand which includes price elasticity of demand, income elasticity of demand, and cross elasticity of demand (McConnell, Brue, & Flynn, 2012). There is also elasticity of supply. Elasticity can vary among products because there are some goods that may be more…
($180 weekly), or let grandparents keep kids, which was not an option considering they lived out of state and we did not want to see baby only on weekends. Our text states, “The length of time period used in measuring the price elasticity affects the magnitude of price elasticity (Thomas & Maurice, 2010).” Because I would be returning to work soon I had no other options but to choose the more expensive daycare. In exchange, we started looking for ways to consume less. We cut our entrainment…
Question 1 Define ad explain using formulae, the term price elasticity of demand. Answer 1 Demand is price elastic if the change in price leads to a even larger proportion of change in demand; therefore price elasticity of demand will therefore be greater than 1. This is because goods that are inelastic have all these qualities or features They are expensive/luxury or costly goods, e.g. or latest smartphones or designer clothes. Goods with many substitutes or similar products have a…
