In Section 1.8 of the text there are standard translation matrices defined. Choose two and determine their product.

Use the product matrix and determine the transformation of one of the geometric shapes created by the following points:

a) (0, 0), (-3, 3), and (3, 3)

b) (0, 0), (-3, -3), and (3, -3)

c) (0, 0), (3, 3), and (3, -3)

d) (0, 0), (-1, 4), and (1, 4)

e) (0, 0), (-4, 2), and (4, 2)

Do not post a duplicate example.

Then, create your own geometric shape and identify its vertices. Explain how your shape would be transformed by the product matrix.

Section 1. The following questions are conceptual questions based on chapters 1 and 2 (weeks 1 and 2 of the lecture notes). • Suppose that a survey is being planned for purposes of estimating the average number of hours exercising daily by adults (18 years of age or older) living in a certain community. A list of all individuals living in the community is not available; however, a list of all households is available at the office of community clerk.

. 36 1 2 31 44 1 1 9

Complete the following:

a) Use the bubble sort (page 214) to sort the values showing the order of the values in the list after every pass of the sorting algorithm.

b) What is the time complexity of the sort (use the number of comparisons required as a measure of time.)   

c) Modify the algorithm so it stops if there are no swaps in a complete pass. How many comparisons would be needed in your specific example?

d) Choose one of the following properties of Algorithms and show that the bubble sort has the given property:

  • Input: an algorithm has input values;

  • Output: from each set of input values an algorithm produces output values that are a solution to the problem;

  • Definiteness: the steps in an algorithm must be precisely defined;

  • Correctness: an algorithm must produce the correct output values for each set of input values;

  • Finiteness: an algorithm should produce the output after a finite number of steps;

  • Effectiveness: it must be possible to perform each step in the algorithm in a finite amount of time;

  • Generality: the algorithm must be applicable to a category of problems, not a single set of input values.
