What is income inequality and how is it related to inequality of access to quality education? Income inequality is the unbalanced distribution of income amongst the population. One may not think Education inequality and Income inequality are related yet they are. The higher the income group you belong to the better quality education you can get. This is because education is becoming more and more expensive, especially in poor countries and if you belong from a low income group that means you cannot

Smiley, Gregory College Algebra- Math 1111- SO Evaluate the difference quotient f(x+h)-f(x)/h So this equation is probably going to be in an calculus class also I have yet to take it yet, but I do understand this is in college algebra for which I have taken it. The equation is f(x+h)-f(x)/h. This formula finds the slope of the sectant line that goes through two points that are on a graph of f. These are the points with x- coordinates x and x+h. It also allows you to find the slope of any curve

Or we can draw a line graph: Formative Assessment Activity 5 Please follow the instructions from your facilitator to complete the Activity in your Formative Assessment Guide 3.2 Compare, analyse and describe the behaviour of patterns and functions In the previous section, we looked at how to

Figure 1 shows the visual output of transforming the quantitative information presented in Table 1 into the so-called bubble plot, which is essentially a special version of a scatterplot (Kabacoff 2011, p.278f.). The graph in Figure 1 visualises co-occurring nominal collocates of hot and warm in the COHA decade of the 1860s. The x-axis designates the co-occurrence frequency per million words of collocates with hot whereas the y-axis portrays their co-occurrence frequency per million words with warm

-What is the domain of an algebraic expression? Domain is a set of values for the variable for which the expression makes sense. You can’t have zero in the denominator. As a result of this, restrictions are needed to list the values for the variables in which the denominator would equal zero. Closed dot on timeline = [ ] brackets. Which means that number is included. Open dot on timeline = ( ) parenthesis. (Infinity always uses parenthesis). Which means that number is not included. Example: 3x2

A “Tilted Arc” is an art installation created by Richard Serra, and American minimalist sculptor well-known for working with the large-scale installations of sheet metal. In 1981 he mounted a solid plate of COR-TEN steel covered in rust on Foley Federal Plaza in Manhattan. The plate is 120-foot long and 12-foot high which makes it easily noticeable. While attracting a certain constant amount of negative feedback, it still exists with the help of numerous defenders. However, the opponents of the arc

Part A. The technique on how to find the equation that only applies to point C and F, is to create a line or curve that only includes two of these points. In this case, I created a random line that isolates points C and F from the rest of the points. First, we have to find the equation of the line by choosing at least two points on the line. Using the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope, Δy/Δx and b is the y-intercept. Let's choose the red points: Point 1(3,3) and Point 2(-4,-4)

defined by \( \ g(x) = x^{2} \) Task 1a What is \( \ g^{-1}(4) ? \) The Process Firstly, let us find \( \ g^{-1}(x) \). As we know the inverse will be undoing what \( \ g \) has done to \( \ x \) using the following steps ↓ Step 1. We write down the function \( \ g(x) = x^{2} \Leftrightarrow y = x^{2} \) \( \ y = x^{2} \) ↓ Step 2. We interchange variables by replacing the occurrence of y with x, and x with y \( \ y = x^{2} \rightarrow x = y^{2} \) \( \ x = y^{2} \) ↓ Step 3. Now we solve for y \( \

Freud, Kant and Nostalgia Sigmund Freud never directly tackled the concept of collecting in his psychology but just before he was forced to leave Vienna for London, the photographer ‘Edmund Engelmann’ photographed his 2,000 objects that Freud had kept over the previous 40 years after his father had passed away. These photographs provided a record that served as a replicate to the desk full of specimens that had always dominated Freud’s room in England. He proposed a more pragmatic account for

Introduction We use language every day to inform, express, explain or socialize. The language we use in daily life varies since we have various identities in the society. Different word choices are used depending on the target, purpose and situation. Register changes at specific time either, to express the identity of oneself. In this portfolio, I will share my insight and experience gained from the course work. (I) My discourse communities The discourse community I wish to depict first is classmates

Dealing with Rational Functions Recently in Precalculus Algebra at Wake Tech, we have been working extensively with analyzing and graphing ration functions. Rational functions are expressed in the form of fractions in which both the numerator and the denominator are polynomials. In other words, these functions have x in both the top and bottom of the fraction. Before many rational functions can be properly analyzed and deciphered, they must first be completely simplified, which often times includes

where $x_i,i=1,2, cdots ,n$ are the states, $underline{x}_i=[x_1,cdots,x_i]^{T} in{R}^i$, $i=1,2, cdots ,n $, $uin {R}$ is the input, and $f_i(cdot)$,$i=1,2, cdots ,n $ are the unknown smooth nonlinear functions which satisfy the global Lipschitz condition. It is assumed that the output $y(cdot)$ is sampled at instants $t_k,k=1,2, cdots ,n$, which represent the sampling instants. $T=t_{k+1}-t_k$ is the sampling interval which is a positive constant. The output signal is available for the observer

The Core Competencies of a Construction Engineering Technician This paper will discuss the core competencies of a 120A, Construction Engineer Technician (CET). Competencies may incorporate a skill, but are more than a skill, they include abilities and behaviors, as well as knowledge that is fundamental to the use of a skill. Core competencies are portable across: time, levels of authority, levels of responsibility, and unforeseen situations. Core competencies, as discussed in this paper, are core

One of the newest trends in interior design is the use of vinyl letters. Indeed, interior designers and homeowners have started to make use of letters made of vinyl in decorating both living and office spaces. However, the use of letters and sayings to decorate rooms has been around for quite some time now but it has only been recently that the use of vinyl wall sayings has become popular. Generally, interior designers and homeowner prefer to use this method of decorating because of the less tacky

The unit A.2 test is my best assignment because I find question involving linear functions the easiest to solve. When I learned the four ways to solve linear functions, I learned that if I’m unsure of an answer I can just use a different method to check if I have the same answer. One way to solve the y=mx+b formula when given only two points is to start by plotting the points; then draw a straight line from one of the points to the other. Then count up or down on the Y axis and count right or left

Le Chatelier’s Principle relates how systems at equilibrium respond to disturbances. Equilibrium is disturbed when concentration, pressure, or temperature changes. Reactions want to stay at equilibrium. For the reaction to go back to equilibrium, it must shift to the left or right to settle the disturbance. In the given problem, the instructions were given to find the partial pressure of the reactant and the product using different equations. The equations used the formulas of (PNO2)^2/PN2O4=0.60

Summary: When integrating function expressed with the new term variable u, we provide the neutralizing factor or “nf” written before the integral sign. This nf could be balance with the given term of the integration. The antiderivative of the trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions would be based on our knowledge on the differentiation formulas since integration is for the reverse of finding the function. A separable differential equation is any differential equation that we can

1. The graph is showing the survival rate of the different groups of rabbits over a span of four months. It shows how group two had a 100 percent survival rate (all five survived) over the course of four months. Group three had an eighty percent survival rate (four out of five survived). And group one had a twenty percent survival rate (one out of five survived). The rabbits in group one and two were emaciated because they were both in dark and confined spaces with little food. They were malnourished

A calendar quarter means any 3-month period determined as follows: The first period of any year may begin on any date in January: provided, that the second, third, and fourth periods accordingly begin on the same date in April, July, and October, respectively, and that the fourth period extends into January of the succeeding year (29 CFR 1910 OSHA General Industry Regulations, 2014). Rem means a measure of the dose of any ionizing radiation to body tissue in terms of its estimated biological effect

The non-fiction book Gulp by Mary Roach takes the reader on a fascinating and sometimes disgusting journey through the alimentary canal, which she calls “the most powerful taboo in human history”(Roach 18). Throughout the book Roach attempts to entertain, as well as inform, the reader by asking questions that many people would neither think or want to ask. Questions such as “Why do animals lick their wounds? Why don’t suicide bombers smuggle bombs in their rectums? Can constipation kill you?” (Roach
