Read chapter 18 and pick ONE of the cases in this chapter to discuss: Anderson v. Country Life Insurance, Mendenhall v. Hanesbrands, INC., O'Brien v. Ohio State University, or Hoosier Energy Rural Electric cooperative, INC. v. John Hancock Life Insurance Co. Share with the class your impression of the case and why you agree or disagree with the court's holding.

The pressure p and volume v of a given mass of gas are connected by the relation
k=(p+a\v^2)(v-b)
where a, b, and k are constants.
Using the composite trapezoidal method, write a MatLab script to approximate the work done by the gas in expanding from an initial volume to a final volume. Express p in terms of v.
Where W = Integral (Pdv)

Let V be a vector space of dimension 1 over a field k and choose a fixed nonzero element voe V, which is therefore a basis. Let W be any vector space over k and let woe W be an arbitrary vector. Show that there is a unique linear transformation T: V → W such that T(v)= wo. [Hint: What must T(Avo) be?)

A stellar object that is at a great distance emits a stream of
matter at velocity v towards an observer obliquely, forming an
angle θ with the observation line. For the observer the jet appears
to have been emitted laterally at speed V.
Show that for certain angles the speed measured by the observer may
exceed the speed of light.
V = sin θ (1 / v - cos θ) −1

Upriver Parts manufactures two products, V-1 and V-2, at its
River Plant. Selected data for an average month for the two
products follow.
| V-1 | V-2 | |||||
| Units produced | 10,000 | 1,000 | ||||
| Direct materials cost per unit | $ | 2 | $ | 4 | ||
| Machine hours per unit | 1 | 2 | ||||
| Production runs per month | 80 | 40 | ||||
Production at the plant is automated and any labor cost is included
in overhead. Data on manufacturing overhead at the plant
follow.
| Machine depreciation | $ | 39,000 | |
| Setup labor | 19,200 | ||
| Material handling | 14,640 | ||
| Total | $ | 72,840 | |
Required:
a. Compute the unit costs for the two products
V-1 and V-2 using the current costing system at Upriver (using
machine hours as the allocation basis). (Do not round
intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal
places.)
b. Compute the unit costs for the two products V-1
and V-2 using the proposed ABC system at Upriver. (Do not
round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal
places.)

Consider a binary channel transmitting bits independently. Each bit is demodulated with a 0 corresponding to 0 volts and a 1 corresponding to 5 volts. Thus, the received random variable v is normally distributed with variance σ2 = 1 and mean μ = 0 or μ = 5. The demodulated voltage v is compared to a threshold τ to decide whether a bit is a 0 or 1, i.e., decide that a 1 was sent if v > τ and that a 0 was sent if v < τ. Bits are equally probable so that P ( μ = 0 ) = P ( μ = 5 ) = 1 / 2. Note that an error occurs either if a 0 was sent so that μ = 0 but v > τ and a 1 is decided or if a 1 was sent so that μ = 5 but v < τ and a 0 is decided. What are the conditional probabilities P ( v > τ | μ = 0 ) and P ( v < τ | μ = 5 )? What is the resulting probability of error? What value should one choose for τ to minimize the probability of error? If 1250 bytes (8 bits each) are sent, what is the expected number of errors?

Rebecca and Walter Bunge have been married for 5 years. They
live at 883 Scrub Brush Street, Apt. 52B, Las Vegas, NV 89125.
Rebecca is a homemaker and Walt is a high school teacher. Rebecca's
Social Security number is 222-43-7690 and Walt's is 700-01-0002.
Walt's earnings from teaching are:

The Bunges incurred the following expenses during their move
from Maine to Nevada in January of 2016:
|
The school district reimbursed Walter $500 for moving expenses. These are reflected on his W-2. Walter’s previous job, as a high school teacher in Maine, was only 5 miles from his home. Rebecca was unemployed prior to the move.
The Bunges own a ski condo located at 123 Buncombe Lane, Brian
Head, UT 84719. The condo was rented for 185 days during 2016 and
used by the Bunges for 15 days. Pertinent information about the
condo rental is as follows:

The above amounts do not reflect any allocation between rental and personal use of the condo. The Bunges are active managers of the condo.

Required:
Complete the Bunge's federal tax return for 2016. Use Form 1040, Schedule E, Form 3903, and Form 8582 to complete their tax return.
If an amount box does not require an entry or the answer is zero, enter "0". Do not round any percentages. If required, round your answers to the nearest dollar. If required, enter a "loss" as a negative number on the tax form. Do not enter deductions as negative numbers.
Note: Special instructions for Form 8582 - If required, use the minus sign to enter a "loss" as a negative number on the lines 1d, 4 and 16. However, per the instructions on the tax return, enter all numbers in Part II as positive amounts.
