Question 1

Today, the market’s diversity provides numerous low calorie microwavable food options. In addition, increases in the income of individuals, people have the capacity to live easier lifestyles and this has led to increase in demand for certain products of preference.

The quantity demanded equation of the product is given by;

Qd = -5200 – 42P + 20Px + 5.2I + 0.2A + 2.5M

Therefore, the elasticity of P (partial differentiation)

δQdp = -42 Assuming all other independent variables are constant
Hence elasticity of P = (δQdp). (δPQ )
= -42(P-5200-42P+5.2I+0.2A+2.5M)
For the 3-pack unit = -42(5-5200-425+206+5.25500+0.210,000+2.5(5000))
Therefore = -42 (537810) = -212656 = -0.007906

Solving for Px

ΔQdp = 20(637810)=0.010579

Solving for I

QdI=5.2550037810=0.7564

Solving for A

QdI = 0.2(10,00037810) = 0.0528

Solving for M

QdM = 2.5(500037810) = 0.3306

Abstract

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010 aim at improving the health status of the population by increasing insurance coverage.

Definition of statistics

Statistics can be defined as the science involved in the study of data. It entails collection (acquisition), organization and analysis of data which allows for drawing of conclusions. It also allows for measuring, controlling and communication of uncertainty (Witte & Witte, 2010).

Global scenario and California
Water is a precious nonrenewable resource. It is limited in quantity and serves the entire humanity, and all living beings on earth. A man can survive without water for only three days. Many problems on earth are attributed to increasing population and water scarcity is one of them. The exponential growth of the human population not only endangers other living things on earth but also deprives them of essential requirements like clean water, clean air, and a safe habitat to live. Water as a resource is under threat because it is contaminated, misused, wasted, and

Global environmental systems are networks which compose the surroundings in which living things cohabit, and which constitute the planetary arena as we know it. Examples of global systems include the atmosphere, Cryosphere, biosphere and oceans. The global environmental system is intertwined with ecosystems, culture, economics, and societies. These are in turn related to other phenomena, which are dynamic in nature. These dynamic and natural systems vary in nature, found in a given period of time, and closely based on the existing global human activities, as Steffen et al. (2004) alludes. An example would be our current natural environment: the

There are several sampling designs such as simple random sampling, systematic sampling, stratified sampling and, cluster sampling as well as purposive and snowball sampling. This paper discusses how purposive and snowball sampling can be used in sampling human population. Purposive sampling is a non-probability sampling method. This means that it does not base its findings on probability but rather on a well analyzed research. Snow ball sampling method is also a non-probability sampling. Non-probability sampling methods are applied in the estimation of the human population as it is usually difficult to determine the population of human basing your sampling

In today’s age, the population is growing at an almost breakneck speed. Modern medicine and technology allows us to take care of ourselves better as well as heal our sick in ways that humans have never dreamed possible. Nearly everything that is happening today concerning the longevity of human life and the size of the world’s population would be considered nothing short of a miracle by those living 1,000 years ago. The concept of slowing or halting this progression would sound like something out of a dystopian novel to many, if it were not for the

Sampling is the process of selecting a group of subjects to act as a representation of the entire target group. The selected representative portion of the population is called a sample, and it upon which generalizations of the research findings is done to apply to the whole target population. There is one principal way through which a sample might not be a representation of the entire population. This occurs when randomization is not done during the process of compiling the sample. It should be noted that randomization is the key to building an effective representative sample for the study.

The Tragedy of the Commons is an article authored by Garret Hardin in 1968. In this article, Hardin presents a sensational and compelling formulation of the human population problem. He poses the problems of population in very stark terms. He first examines the relationship between the human population and the available resources and makes a conclusion that there is a need for the population to be effectively controlled. He then engages in a comprehensive discussion of the reasons that have led to the observed swelling of the current population. Hardin then uses this analysis to propose plausible solutions.

Open Source Software or Free Software (OSS/FS) has attained bad reputation in the past years that needs to be corrected at the earliest. Numerous global computer programmers have invested their time to develop OSS, and it is crucial to understand the contributions of these programmers, and appreciate their efforts they put in creating the software that was distributed freely. It becomes extremely necessary to understand the practices, and motivational factors of these developers, which can be achieved through a survey. Initially, an examination of users and developers gave a broad base of hard data on OSS/FS. Throughout the survey,
