do you think the way classical economics models individual decision making (through utility maximization) is flawed and should be altered? If so, how?

In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.05 m/s, due west. This average velocity results, because she hikes for 5.66 km with an average velocity of 2.54 m/s due west, turns around, and hikes with an average velocity of 0.403 m/s due east. How far east did she walk (in kilometers)?

Zero Turbulence Airline provides air transportation services between Los Angeles, California; and Kona, Hawaii. A single Los Angeles to Kona round-trip flight has the following operating statistics:
| Fuel | $12,878 |
| Flight crew salaries | 9,864 |
| Airplane depreciation | 4,658 |
| Variable cost per passenger—business class | 65 |
| Variable cost per passenger—economy class | 50 |
| Round-trip ticket price—business class | 555 |
| Round-trip ticket price—economy class | 300 |
It is assumed that the fuel, crew salaries, and airplane depreciation are fixed, regardless of the number of seats sold for the round-trip flight. If required round the answers to nearest whole number.
a. Compute the break-even number of seats sold on a single round-trip flight for the overall product, E. Assume that the overall product is 10% business class and 90% economy class seats.
| Total number of seats at break-even | seats |
b. How many business class and economy class seats would be sold at the break-even point?
| Business class seats at break-even | seats |
| Economy class seats at break-even | seats |

I asked this question before, but I'm wondering if there are any other ways to do this problem. My exam will be similar to this, so I'm looking for more examples to study with. Thank you!
For this Java program, you will write two classes: GradeCalculator and GradeCalculatorDriver.
In the GradeCalculator class, compute the final average and letter grade for a particular student.
The final average is calculated according to the following rules:
1) There are ten exams scored out of 100 points
2) The lowest exam score is not included in the calculation of the final average
3) The highest exam score is not included in the calculation of the final average
4) An average of 91-100 is an A
5) An average of 81-90 is a B
6) An average of 71-80 is a C
7) An average of 61-70 is a D
8) An average of 0-60 is an E
The GradeCalculator class must include the following methods:
1) A method to compute and return the highest score
2) A method to compute and return the lowest score
3) A method to compute the sum of all the scores
4) A method to compute the final average
5) A method to determine the letter grade
In the GradeCalculatorDriver class, include a main method that asks the user for the student’s name and their ten exam grades, reads the grades, calculates the letter grade and prints it. This process should be repeated until the user enters N.
For example, a run of the program might look something like this:
Welcome to Score Calculator
Want to compute a final average? Y
Please enter the student’s name: Sara Smith
Please enter test scores all on one line separated by one or more spaces.
The final score for Sara Smith is 100.
The letter grade for Sara Smith is A.
Want to compute another final average? N

Suppose we have a collection of n different subsets of the set { 1, 2, ..., n } and they are in some arbitrary order, that is, we have subsets S1, S2, ..., Sn, but how many and which elements are in each of these subsets is entirely arbitrary. Suppose also that we have another subset S' of { 1, 2, ..., n }.
(a) Express a brute-force algorithm that determines whether S' equal to one of the subsets in the collection.
(b) Give a big-O worst case estimate as a function of n for the time complexity of your algorithm. To receive full credit, you must explain how you obtained your answer.
