properties of actual procedures for aggregating preferences via voting rules. The problem is finding a social choice function that satisfies normative criteria and establishing equilibrium under voting rules. (Mueller‚ 3‚ 1989) Arrow’s Impossibility Theorem set out to prove that democratic social choice processes were inherently flawed and had no way to be fixed. In order for a person to vote there must be a social welfare function that satisfies unrestricted domain‚ positive association‚ independence

Greek mathematician and philosopher. Pythagoras was responsible for important developments in the history of mathematics‚ astronomy‚ and the theory of music. The thing that Pythagoras is probably the most famous for is the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem is used in the field of mathematics and it states the following: the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides. This means that if one makes a square (with all sides equal in

Introduction This experiment focuses on two concepts. These concepts are Proportionality and Superposition theorems. Proportionality is a way to relate two quantities together. This means that when more input is supplied‚ you get more output which is proportional to the input. The Proportionality Theorem states that the response in a circuit is proportional to the source acting in the circuit. This is also known as Linearity. The proportionality constant (K) relates the input voltage to the

display the temperature at that depth in degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit. The relevant formulas are: Celsius = 10 x (depth) + 20 (Celsius temperature at depth in km) Farhrenheit = 1.8 x (Celsius) + 32 8. The Pythagorean Theorem states that the sum of the squares of the sides of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. For example‚ if two sides of a right triangle have lengths 3 and 4‚ then the hypotenuse must have a length of 5. The integers 3‚ 4‚ and 5

EXPERIMENT NO. 10 Thevenin’s Theorem Objectives: 1. To verify the Thevenin’s theorem through an experiment. 2. To find the Thevenin’s resistance RTH by various methods and compare values. Equipment: Resistors‚ DMM‚ breadboard‚ DC power supply‚ and connecting wires. Theory: Thevenin theorem states that any linear two-terminal circuit can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source VTH in series with a resistance RTH where * VTH is the open-circuit voltage at

World War I. Mary Cartwright was homeschooled until she was 11 years old. At only 11 years old she went to Leamington High School. Later in years she transferred to Godolphin School. Mary Cartwrights best subject in high school was social studies. She didn’t discover her love of mathematics until the last year of high school when a fellow classmate encouraged her to study

Bayes’ theorem describes the relationships that exist within an array of simple and conditional probabilities. For example: Suppose there is a certain disease randomly found in one-half of one percent (.005) of the general population. A certain clinical blood test is 99 percent (.99) effective in detecting the presence of this disease; that is‚ it will yield an accurate positive result in 99 percent of the cases where the disease is actually present. But it also yields false-positive results in 5

George W. Bush September 20‚ 2011 Address to Congress On September 11‚ 2001 the American nation was shaken with news of a terrorist attack on the World Trade Center towers in New York City. Fear and panic commandeered the spirits of American citizens as they awaited to hear if their loved one had perished‚ if another attack had been planned for somewhere else in the United States‚ and how their nation would rise from the ashes to face another tomorrow. Not only had their nation been attacked‚ but
