Determine the positive real root of ln(x^2)=0.8 by the following methods. (Note that you need to show the details of your derivations in MATLAB).

a) Graphically ( plot the function and copy your figure to word).

b) Using two iterations of the bisection method with initial guesses of xl=0.4 and xu=2 and populate the following table. What is the root after two iterations? Provide justification for the values you have obtained in your MATLAB code as comments.

i xl xu xr

1 0.4 2

2

c) Using two iterations of the false position method, with the same initial guesses as in b) and populate the table below. What is the root after two iterations? Provide justification for the values you have obtained in your MATLAB code as comments.

i xl xu xr

1 0.4 2

2   

d) Compute the actual root of the function (use a built in MATLAB function) and identify which method (bisection or false position) achieves a better estimate of the root after two iterations. Prove your answer by calculating the True Percentage Error ( Assume that your answer in part d, obtained using the MATLAB Built in Function is the true value ). ALL Calculations must be performed in MATLAB.

This question demonstrates the use of inheritance and polymorphism.
Design a Ship class that has the following members:
• A field for the name of the ship (a string).
• A field for the year that the ship was built (a string).
• A constructor and appropriate accessors and mutators.
• A toString method that overrides the toString method in the Object class. The Ship class
toString method should display the ship’s name and the year it was built.
Design a CruiseShip class that extends the Ship class. The CruiseShip class should have the following members:
• A field for the maximum number of passengers (an int).
• A constructor and appropriate accessors and mutators.
• A toString method that overrides the toString method in the base class. The CruiseShip class’s
toString method should display only the ship’s name and the maximum number of passengers.
Design a CargoShip class that extends the Ship class. The CargoShip class should have the following members:
• A field for the cargo capacity in tonnage (an int).
• A constructor and appropriate accessors and mutators.
• A toString method that overrides the toString method in the base class. The CargoShip class’s
toString method should display only the ship’s name and the ship’s cargo capacity.
Demonstrate the classes in a program that has a Ship array. Assign various Ship, CruiseShip, and CargoShip objects to the array elements. The program should then step through the array and print each object.

PLEASE DO THE QUESTION IN A SIMPLER WAY

finish the java programming

Create a new class named MyCharacterListTools that provides the API shown below.

This class does not need a constructor nor will any user-defined constructor be called by the

provided code in MainClassQ1.java.

◦ MyLinkedList createCharacterList(String str) – This method is to

return a MyLinkedList whose data items are the characters of str. All of the

characters must appear in the list and in the same order as they are given in str.

◦ void removeNonLetters(MyLinkedList list) – This method is to remove

from the list any spaces, numbers and punctuation characters (this is to be done inplace).

Letters of the alphabet are to be left in the list in the same order they were given.

For example, if the list contained {H_e_l_l_o_ _W_o_r_l_d_!} then after calling this

function, the list would hold {H_e_l_l_o_W_o_r_l_d}. You may use the built-in Java

static method Character.isLetter(char ch) to test whether the list items are

letters.

◦ boolean testEquality(MyLinkedList l1, MyLinkedList l2) – This

method is to compare two MyLinkedLists for equality. Two lists are considered

equal if their contents are the same and in the same order. Letter case should not be

observed (i.e. 'A' is equal to 'a', 'B' is equal to 'b', etc...). If the two lists are equal then

return true. Return false otherwise. The static built-in Java methods

Character.toLowerCase(char ch) and Character.toUpperCase(char

ch) may be used in this method.

Dear Colleague, Earlier today I built my seventh website using HTML5, CSS3, and Bootstrap4. Bootstrap seems amazing, but it never did what it should do – make my website look better. Also, my page should have a blue theme that was provided in the CSS folder. This also didn’t work. My website is supposed to look like what is shown in Figure 1 (see below). Someone told me that there are exactly 10 errors on index.html, 10 errors on contact.html, and 10 errors on events.html. Yes, 30 errors total! Can you help me find all of the errors? Hint: You should not add ANY LINES to the code. There will never be more than one error per line number.

Fruit flies, like almost all other living organisms, have built-in circadian rhythms that keep time even in the absence of external stimuli. Several genes have been shown to be involved in internal timekeeping, including per (period) and tim (timeless). Mutations in these two genes, and in other genes, disrupt timekeeping abilities. Interestingly, these genes have also been shown to be involved in other time-related behavior, such as the frequency of wingbeats in male courtship behaviors. Individuals that carry particular mutations of per and tim have been shown to copulate for longer than individuals that have neither mutation. But do these two mutations affect copulation time in similar ways? The following table summarizes some data on the duration of copulation for flies that carry either the tim mutation or the per mutation (Beaver and Giebultowicz 2004):

b) Do the populations carrying these mutations have different variances in copulation duration? Enter the calculated F-value.

c) Do the populations carrying these mutations have different variances in copulation duration? Finish this hypothesis test and describe your conclusion.

Information: Thomas Perdue had built up a successful development company. When he became city commissioner, everyone said it was good to have a businessperson on the commission. They said businesspeople know how to control costs and make sound economic decisions, and Thomas could help the city tighten its belt. One of his first projects was an analysis of the human resources department. He claimed that if the whole function was outsourced, it would save the taxpayers money. A year later, after painful layoffs and a bumpy transition, the new contractor, NewSoft, was in place. Two years later, NewSoft’s billing rates had steadily increased, and there were complaints about service. After five years, the supposed savings had vanished, and Thomas had moved on to state government, his campaigns fueled by “generous” campaign contributions from companies like NewSoft. Requirement: After reading all differential analysis resources and viewing the videos, answer the following question 2 questions in your own words, using complete sentence structure and grammar. Please use citations if applicable. The attached rubric displays grading criteria. For this specific assignment, feedback will be given 24 hours after the due date. There is one attempt on this assignment. This assignment should be submitted based on individual knowledge and is not group based. Questions 1.Although this case differs from “fraud” in the usual sense, describe the conflict of interest in this case. Who benefitted, and who did not?. 2.When making business decisions of this sort, some factors are quantitative, and some are qualitative factors. Discuss some of the qualitative factors related to this case.

Tough-Built Corporation produces specialized truck body components, specializing in hydraulic lifts for dump trucks. Founded 35 years ago by George Halloway, the firm now employs 150 workers and has annual sales of over $10 million. George operates the firm in a highly centralized way, and retains control over all changes in operations. He is a regular visitor to the production area, which helps him "keep his finger on the pulse of the firm."
Although George Halloway is now 67 years old, he has no apparent management successor, and has always hand-picked his department heads and staff personnel. He has been generous to those who worked for him, paying substantial bonuses each year to the employees based on his personal evaluation of each worker. Just six weeks ago, a heart attack convinced George to consider retirement, and he decided to sell the firm to his employees. You are assigned the task of recommending a set of strategic performance measures for the firm, assuming that the new worker management wants to operate as a decentralized firm.

Required:

What major management problems do you foresee in the transition from sole owner to employee ownership?
