W.E.B Du Bois Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation W.E.B Du Bois America at the decades between XIX-XX centuries made its first efforts on the establishment of the democratic and force country. Civil war in the USA between the industrial North and the agrarian slaveholding South became 1861-1865 a turning point in the American history. The period of a post-war emptiness and fatigue came to change the innocent optimism of the young democratic nation

regression are concerned with measuring the linear relationship between two variables. 1.1 Scattergram It is not a graph at all‚ it looks at first glance like a series of dots placed haphazardly on a sheet of graph paper. The purpose of scattergram is to illustrate diagrammatically any relationship between two variables. (a) If the variables are related‚ what kind of relationship it is‚ linear or nonlinear ? (b) If the relationship is linear‚ the scattergram will show whether

Types of regression and linear regression equation 1. The term regression was first used as a statistical concept in 1877 by Sir Francis Galton. 2. Regression determines ‘cause and effect’ relationship between variables‚ so it can aid to the decision-making process. 3. It can only indicate how or to what extent variables are associated with each other. 4. There are two types of variables used in regression analysis i.e. The known variable is called as Independent Variable and the variable which

(a) What is linear programming problem? Ans: Linear programming (LP‚ or linear optimization) is a mathematical method for determining a way to achieve the best outcome (such as maximum profit or lowest cost) in a given mathematical model for some list of requirements represented as linear relationships. Linear programming is a specific case of mathematical programming (mathematical optimization). More formally‚ linear programming is a technique for the optimization of a linear objective function

9/12/10 IMP POW Linear Nim In this POW‚ we had to play a game called Linear Nim. In this game‚ we drew 10 lines on a paper‚ and we had to take turns crossing out 1‚ 2‚ or 3 of the marks. The person that crossed out the last mark was the winner. The first task of this POW was to find a winning strategy for this game. After we found this out‚ we were supposed to make variations to the game‚ for instance starting with more or less marks‚ or allowing a player to cross out more or less marks. We were

| This problem‚ as outlined above‚ is an example of a linear programming problem. Linear programming is part of the Optimization Techniques field of Mathematics‚ used for resource allocation and organization. With linear programming problems‚ one takes the inequalities that exist within a given situation and deduces a best case scenario under those particular conditions (Stapel‚ 2009). One particularly effective method of solving linear programming problems is the Simplex Method. The Simplex
