The city of Imaginopolis, which is located near White River, has an elaborate system of levees to protect the city from flooding during high-water events. The levees were built over 50 years ago and many of them are showing signs of structural distress. Using a systems perspective, how would you draw up a program to rehabilitate the levee system under budgetary constraints over a 5-year period?

You want to buy a new house. Your options are a tradition house
for $350,000 and a 3D printed concrete
house for $100,000. These houses are built over a plot that
increases 5% every year. You want to
keep this house for 20 years and make a bit of money at the
end.
Which house would be the better option if both homes lose 2% of
its value, but also increase due to an
inflation of 3.22% every year?

Create a program where you can add binary while they're still in binary form and convert them to decimal, adds them, then converts then back to binary. (without built in conversions).
Convert 34 to Binary Convert 22 to Binary Convert 1001 to Decimal Convert 111011 to Decimal Add 11 and 1110 in Binary Return the Answer in Binary Subtract 111 from 1010 in Binary, then Convert the Answer to Decimal

Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 5% and the expected rate of return on the market is 15%. I am buying a firm with an expected perpetual cash flow of $1,000 but am unsure of its risk. If I think the beta of the firm is 0.3, when in fact the beta is really 0.6, how much more will I offer for the firm than it is truly worth? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Three children, each of mass 15 kg, ride at the edge of a frictionless merry-go-round of mass 163 kg and radius 1.2 meters. The children jump off outward, directly away from the center, taking zero angular momentum with them. If the angular velocity of the merry-go-round before they jumped was = 0.3 rad/s, what is its angular velocity after they jump?
Treat the merry-go-round as a solid cylinder.
