Question 2 options: Groovy Juice Mixers, Inc. Groovy Juice Mixers, Inc. mixes specialty drinks out of apple, guava, and papaya juices. Currently it has 1300, 700, and 600 gallons of each of these kinds of juices in inventory, respectively. Groovy currently has two products, Tropical Breeze and Guava Jive, which sell for $2.20 and $1.70 per gallon, respectively. Tropical Breeze is a mixture of all three ingredients that consists of 20% to 25% guava juice, and also 20% to 25% papaya juice. Guava Jive consists at least 50% and at most 55% guava. It does not have to contain papaya juice, but if it does, it may be at most 10% papaya. Assume inventory is a sunk cost, and that the costs of mixing are negligible. Therefore, Groovy's goal is to obtain the maximum possible revenue from the inventory on hand.

To do this problem you will need 6 Decision Variables:

TA = Number of Gallons of Apple Juice Used in Tropical Breeze

TG = Number of Gallons of Guava Juice Used in Tropical Breeze

TP = Number of Gallons of Papaya Juice Used in Tropical Breeze

GA = Number of Gallons of Apple Juice Used in Guava Jive

GG = Number of Gallons of Guava Juice Used in Guava Jive

GP = Number of Gallons of Papaya Juice Used in Guava Jive Find each of the following:

TA = TG = 608 TP = GA = GG = GP = 16 Total Revenue = (Leave off $ sign and commas) Hint: Total Revenue is between 5536 and 5646

Consider the sorted array myList of integers below.

2 5 21 25 35 40 45 48 70 75 89 99

The Binary Search algorithm uses two index variables first and last to determine the position
(stored in another index variable mid) to search for an element. Using Binary Search to search
for the element 75 in myList, give the values of myList[first], myList[mid] and
myList[last] (in the form of a table) every time a new value is calculated for mid.

Module 2 -Communication is essential to leadership success, but knowing how and when to use your business communication tools often takes time and practice.

Consider the following case study: You are the manager of a team of workers, and Diego is one of your employees. Before joining your department three months ago, Diego worked six months in another area. Since assigned to your unit, Diego has been repeatedly late for work or absent. Other employees are complaining. You've learned that Diego had a similar problem in the other department. Company policy states that if an employee is warned of such a problem and the behaviors continue, the individual may be given a three-day suspension without pay. One important item to consider: Diego, when he’s on the job, is a top performer and someone you definitely want to keep on the payroll. He can run circles around the other people. He just has problems with tardiness and absenteeism.

Instructions Your goal with this assignment is to create a comprehensive communication strategy to correct Diego's performance issue.You plan to schedule a face-to-face meeting with Diego to address the matter. First, you must notify Diego of the meeting via email. Next, you must plan the agenda for your face-to-face meeting with Diego. Step One: Email - Create an email for Diego to notify him of the meeting. Use Chapter 6: Formatting for Correspondence (pp. 133-147) in Business and Professional Writing: A Basic Guide by MacRae to help you format your email. For the body of your email, use Chapter 8: Bad News Letters (pp. 162-173) as your guide.

When composing your email, consider the following questions: How should you communicate the purpose of the face-to-face meeting to Diego via email? When do you feel is the best time of day and day of week to hold the meeting? Where is the most appropriate location for the meeting? Diego’s work station? Your office? Other locations? Based on your answers, include the date, time, and location for the meeting in the body of your email.

Step Two: Face-to-Face Meeting Agenda - Every successful meeting has a pre-planned agenda. Read the following guidelines on How to Conduct an Effective Disciplinary Interviewby Ruth Mayhew.

When creating your meeting agenda, consider the following questions: What outcome do you need to communicate to Diego during the meeting? What do you believe is the best course of action to handle this problem? Should you counsel Diego and issue a verbal warning? Write a formal letter of reprimand? Suspend the employee for three days without pay? Other actions? How can you clearly communicate company expectations and what you need from Diego moving forward?

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,

to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.

First, to let go of live.

In the end, to take a step without feet;

to regard this world as invisible,

and to disregard what appears to be the self.

Heart, I said, what a gift it has been

to enter this circle of lovers,

to see beyond seeing itself,

to reach and feel within the breast.

The Divani Shamsi Tabriz, XIII

Second

—

Love is reckless; not reason.

Reason seeks a profit.

Love comes on strong,

consuming herself, unabashed.

Yet, in the midst of suffering,

Love proceeds like a millstone,

hard surfaced and straightforward.

Having died of self-interest,

she risks everything and asks for nothing.

Love gambles away every gift God bestows.

Without cause God gave us Being;

without cause, give it back again.

After studying biochemistry all day and night, you fall into a coma-like sleep for 12 hours. After a few hours of not eating, your body starts to say, “Hey, there is a low amount of glucose in my bloodstream, and my muscles that are keeping me alive right now are getting hungry for some energy production. I think I’ll let my pancreas secrete the hormone, glucagon, to go tell my liver and muscle cells to affect their carbohydrate metabolism.” Outline what happens after the glucagon binds to receptors on the outside of your liver/muscle cells. Make sure to mention all of the effected enzymes and major processes involved in carbohydrate metabolism.

Consider sending a large file from a host to another over a TCP connection that has no loss. Suppose TCP uses AIMD for its congestion control without slow start. The initial MSS=4 and cwnd increases by 1 MSS every time a batch of ACKs is received. Assume approximately constant round-trip times. a. how long does it take for cwnd increase from 5 MSS to 9 MSS (assuming no loss events)? b. What is the average throughout (in terms of MSS and RTT) for this connection up through time =6 RTT?
