While death maybe an unfortunate and inevitable occurrence in human life, the death of government policies was originally thought of as so or near impossible. Many researchers considered that termination can cause difficulties when trying to identify causal and predictable relationships. Possibly even more troublesome is the misunderstanding of what constitutes termination (Kinney, N, 2013).
However, the government of Malaysia have terminated several policies such as Teaching Science and Mathematics in English (PPSMI), Goods and Services Taxes (GST) and bend bridge project.
Based on the examples given above, do you agree with the author? Justify your answer
If you were hired as a public official and you were given instructions to terminate a program or a policy,

ii) would you apply the ‘big bang’ or the long whimper approach? Justify your answer?

A 5kg object starts off at ? = 0 travelling at ?x= +10m/s . During its motion, it is subject to a position-dependent force given by:
?net(?) = +480 + 2 ≤ ? ≤ 4,
−120? + 4 ≤ ? ≤ 6,
0 ??ℎ??????
When the object arrives at ? = +4? (parts a-b):
a. Calculate the work done on the object.
b. Calculate the speed of the object.
When the object arrives at ? = +8? (parts c-e):
c. Calculate the total net work done on the object up until this point.
d. Calculate the speed of the object
e. Suppose the net force between +4 ≤ ? ≤ 6 is entirely due to a non-conservative force (and all other forces are
conservative), how much total mechanical energy is lost to the environment during the whole trip?

How can i bubble sort a sentence in a char array in c++
This is the prototype of the function:
char* sort(char string[], int numOfWords, int lengthOfWord);
This is the testing code in the main file:
char words[] = "CAT FAT BAT HAT RAT";
printf("Before sort: t%s\n";words);
char result = sort(words; 5; 3);
printf("After sort : t%s\n"; result);
Expected output:
Before sort: CAT FAT BAT HAT RAT
After sort: BAT CAT FAT HAT RAT

create a program in java that will evaluate a logical expression (compound proposition) based on the given truth values of individual propositional variables. The logical expression may include the logical AND or the logical OR operators. The NOT operator will be included in the variable names itself. So, a proposition such as ¬a would appear as na in the logical expression.
Here is an example of a logical expression using proper notation:
a ∧ b ∨ ¬c ∨ d
This expression will be represented as the following in this program to accommodate simple keyboard input:
a and b or nc or d
The logical operators will be evaluated left to right. Parentheses will not be included.
input the following information:
• number of variables in an expression, between 2 and 5
• the truth values of each of these variables
• a logical expression involving these variables, their negated counterparts and the logical operators and/or

A marketing survey looked at the preferences of hot drink size
among 1275 random
customers of a coffee shop chain. The survey was also interested in
whether the customer’s gender
affects their preference. The results of the survey were used to
estimate the probabilities in this joint
probability distribution:
Tall (T) Grande (G) Venti (V)
Female (F) 0.12 0.24 0.06
Male (M) 0.08 0.38 0.12
a) What is p (M, T), the joint probability that a customer in the
survey was both male and prefers tall
drinks?
b) What is p (F), the marginal probability that a customer in the
survey was female?
c) What is p(G), the marginal probability that a customer in the
survey prefers Grande drinks?
d) What is p (V | M), the conditional probability, given a customer
in the survey was male, that he prefers
venti drinks?
e) What is p (F | V), the conditional probability, given a customer
in the survey prefers venti drinks, that the customer was
female?
f) There are two random variables in this situation, drink size and
gender. Are they independent or dependent? Explain how you arrived
at the answer and show your calculations.

Develop a program Grades.java that collects the user's (students) name, course name, and the score for three quizzes. You are supposed to read this data from the keyboard using the Scanner class. Calculate the total score and the average score.
Further, using the grading scale below, based on the average score computed above, your program should calculate and output a letter grade. and the range boundaries should be configured properly (i.e.: exactly 90 and above is an A, and anything less than 90 to exactly 80 is a B). The grading scale to use is as follows:
Letter Category |
Average Score Range |
A | 90 - 100 |
B | 80 - 90 |
C | 70 - 80 |
D | 60 - 70 |
E | 0 - 60 |
Note: The E Category is not a typo.
Declare the variables in the order studName, courseName, scoreQuiz_1, scoreQuiz_2, and scoreQuiz_3, totalScore, averageScore, and letterCategory. Make sure you declare the variables studName, courseName, and letterEvaluation as String class variables. Select proper data type for the variables totalScore and averageScore. The data type should support decimals. Use a constant variable NUM_OF_Quizzes to compute the average score.
Things to watch for: As you are determining your logic for your if statements in this project, consider that a percentage of 90.0 results in an A, 89.8 results in a B category, 79.12 results in a C category, and 69.994949 results in a D category. That last example is a bit extreme, but the idea is to not try to predict how many 9s after the decimal you need to account for. Just think of where the last boundary ends and where the next one begins, and how you might use your mathematical operators to account for that (is it less-than-or-equal-to, or just less than?).
Formatting: Import the package DecimalFormat to format the average score data. You do this by typing: import java.text.DecimalFormat; either below or above the line: import java.util.Scanner;
Then create a DecimalFormat object by typing: DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("##.00"); either above or below the line Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);
A format with 2 digits would be displayed by using the df as follows:
System.out.println("The average score is: "+df.format(averageScore));
Pseudocode: Prior to writing the Java code for the project, develop a document in pseudocode that outlines how the program will flow. Remember that there are no specific rules regarding pseudocode, but rather you should write pseudocode in a way that is human-readable and understandable (English for this assignment).
The following example is what your program might look like:
