Quadratic function

In the paper "Course scheduling and academic performance", Angela K. Dills and Ray Hernandez-Julian examine the relationship between course scheduling and student achievement, controlling for student and course characteristics. The introduction begins by explaining how higher education courses are generally scheduled and introduces a dataset consisting of student and administrative data from Clemson University. With the use of student grades as a measure of performance, the paper argues that…

This year at Texas Tech University, I am taking the college algebra course in order to fulfill the pre-requisites needed to complete my pre medicine degree major. My current major is Human Development and Family Studies, but I need this math course for my pre-medicine requirements. My pre-med degree plan requires me to complete this course in order to enroll in my required Physics course later in my college career. Physics is not an easy course to master, there are many different difficult…

are $2375, which includes rent and utilities. With that information, a cost function of C(x)=60x+2375, where x is the quantity of units, can be used to determine the monthly cost of running the business. The Price-Demand equation for my hypothetical company is x=f(x)=8500-25p. Using this equation, I can find the feasible range of products that I can sell in one months’ time. Obviously, 0 is the lower bound of the function because I cannot sell less than 0 products. The upper bound is 8500 which…

mathematically with an objective function and constraints 2.2.2.1 Objective Function The primary objective of any ELD problem is to reduce the operational cost by fulfilling the load demand within limit of constraints. The various kinds of objective function formulation are given below. 2.2.2.2 Generator Operating Cost The total cost of operation includes the fuel cost, cost of labour, supplies and maintenance. Mathematically it can be represented as a quadratic polynomial of generated power.…

TITLE/Headline? Is that a funky hockey puck, or just Tupperware container for your lunch? Nope, it is a LabDisc from Globisens. Students in Ms Keith’s Advanced Placement Environmental Science class were almost giddy as tested and probed the goldfish water as they prepared for their ecocolumn terrarium projects. “We can use more than one probe at the same time!” quipped Lia DeGroot. These students were using the LabDisc GenSci from Globisens. Billed as an all in one STEM labs, these devices…

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…

The transition from Homeschool to West Point has been difficult. A new atmosphere, culture, and style of learning has been challenging and rewarding. Interestingly enough, I have noticed that many of my learning preferences have gone unchanged since high school. Although the Academy is drastically different than what I was accustomed to, I still learn best by visualizing, reading and writing, teaching myself and others, and studying alone. I learn most effectively by applying and visualizing.…
