Question: In about 150 words, analyze how Social, Economic, Political and Technological factors might affect the food industry. Define each factor with example in context.

Food Industry

There’s no denying that the food industry is one of the strongest in the world after all, everyone needs to eat! Indeed, there are some interesting dynamics at play in this space which make it unclear just how profitable food businesses will continue to be.

Governments across the world have expansive regulatory frameworks for every aspect of the food industry. This includes the cleanliness of commercial kitchens, the standards for storing and transporting produce, and even the requirements for laborers in the food business. Without a doubt, this makes the food industry one of the most tightly regulated industries of all. On the plus side, this ensures that consumers aren’t exposed to poor quality nutrition, but the complexities of regulation certainly take away from the margins of the food business.

We’re seeing various types of automation more and more in the food industry. Perhaps the best example is the use of self-checkout screens at fast food venues such as McDonalds, but it’s not the only one! Just recently, social media platforms went crazy as viral footage of a hotel’s robot cooking up omelets began to spread. As we find more ways to use technology including robots in

Part I

A ball is thrown straight up from the top of a building that is 185ft high with an initial velocity of 64ft/s. The height of the object can be modeled by the equation s(t) = -16t ² + 64t + 185.
In two or more complete sentences explain how to determine the time(s) the ball is higher than the building in interval notation.

Part II

In two or more complete sentences, describe the transformation(s) that take place on the parent function, f(x) = log(x), to achieve the graph of g(x) = log(-3x-6) - 2.

Part III

The parent function f(x) = log₄x has been transformed by reflecting it over the x-axis, stretching it vertically by a factor of two and shifting it down five units. Which function is representative of this transformation?

A. g(x ) = log₄(2x) - 5

B. g(x) = log₄(-2x) + 5

C. g(x) = 2log₄(x) + 5

D. g(x) = -2log₄(x) - 5

2 ) ask the user for 2 numbers (should be in main)

3 ) Calculate the sum and product of the numbers using reference parameters (should be in getAnswer function)

Here is the function you need       

Function name | Parameters                       | Return Type   

heading | N/A | void

getAnswer | lnumber1, number2, sum, product | void

printmessage | sum, product | void

Sum: <sum>

Product: <product>

Example:

Enter a number: 5

Enter another number: 2

Sum: 7

Product: 10

Define Alternate dispute resolution procedure and explain how having such a procedure can be valuable to a company

A. Define and implement the class Alarm as follows: The class Alarm consists of two private member variables: description of type string and atime of type Time. The class Alarm also includes the following public member functions:

1. print to print out the alarm’s description and hour, minute, and second of the alarm time.

2. setDescription to accept a string argument and use it to set the description member variable.

3. setAtime to accept three integers (for hour, minute, and second) to set the atime member variable (alarm time).

4. getDescription to return the value of the description member variable.

5. getAtime to return the atime member as a Time object.

6. A default constructor that initializes the description to the string “None” and the alarm time to 00:00:00.

7. An overloaded constructor that accepts a string argument for the alarm description and three int arguments (as the hour, minute, and second) and use them to initialize the description and atime member variables of an Alarm object.

8. An overloaded constructor that accepts a string argument for the alarm description and a Time object and use them to initialize the description and atime member variables of an Alarm object.

9. An equals function to compare two Alarm objects’ values. Return true if both objects have the same values of the member variables. Otherwise, return false. B. In the function main, write statements to declare Alarm class objects and test your class implementation.

Your project is expected to contain five source files: Time.h, Time.cpp, Alarm.h, Alarm.cpp, Lab8.cpp.

This is all one question, thank you very much in advance!

You must evaluate a proposal to buy a new milling machine. The base price is $189,000, and shipping and installation costs would add another $16,000. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $103,950. The applicable depreciation rates are 33%, 45%, 15%, and 7%. The machine would require a $7,000 increase in net operating working capital (increased inventory less increased accounts payable). There would be no effect on revenues, but pretax labor costs would decline by $45,000 per year. The marginal tax rate is 35%, and the WACC is 13%. Also, the firm spent $5,000 last year investigating the feasibility of using the machine.

1. How should the $5,000 spent last year be handled?
   1. Last year's expenditure should be treated as a terminal cash flow and dealt with at the end of the project's life. Hence, it should not be included in the initial investment outlay.
   2. Last year's expenditure is considered as an opportunity cost and does not represent an incremental cash flow. Hence, it should not be included in the analysis.
   3. Last year's expenditure is considered as a sunk cost and does not represent an incremental cash flow. Hence, it should not be included in the analysis.
   4. The cost of research is an incremental cash flow and should be included in the analysis.
   5. Only the tax effect of the research expenses should be included in the analysis.

3. What are the project's annual cash flows during Years 1, 2, and 3? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round your intermediate calculations.

   Year 1 $

   Year 2 $

   Year 3 $

4. Should the machine be purchased?

I need you to do both of the programs. Please specify which program is which!

Array Allocator:

Write a function that dynamically allocates an array of integers. The function should accept an integer argument indicating the number of elements to allocate. The function should return a pointer to the array. Call the function in a complete program.

Reverse Array:

Write a function that accepts an int array and the array’s size as arguments. The function should create a copy of the array, except that the element values should be reversed in the copy. The function should return a pointer to the new array. Demonstrate the function in a complete program.

Scientific research is disseminated differently than other types of information/journalism. Discuss the advantages of disadvantages of the current process. Also, see if you can find a website, podcast, radio show, blog, etc. that highlights recent scientific findings for the general public and share it

The Attaran Corporation manufactures two electrical​ products: portable air conditioners and portable heaters. The assembly process for each is similar in that both require a certain amount of wiring and drilling. Each air conditioner takes 3 hours of wiring and 2 hours of drilling. Each heater must go through 2 hours of wiring and 1 hour of drilling. During the next production​ period, 240 hours of wiring time are available and up to 130 hours of drilling time may be used. Each air conditioner sold yields a profit of ​$20. Each heater assembled may be sold for a ​$19 profit. The aim of the objective function for Attaran Corporation should be to Maximize the objective value.

The optimum solution​ is:

Number of air conditioners to be produced​ = ___ ​(round your response to two decimal​ places).

Number of heaters to be produced​ =_____ ​(round your response to two decimal​ places).

Optimal solution value​ = _____ ​(round your response to two decimal​ places).
