A 200.00 g of city water was evaporated to complete dryness.  Data obtained during this experiment: Weight of the empty beaker: 157.72 g Weight of the beaker with residue (impurities): 160.06 g Calculate the impurities in the city water in PPM Hint: ppm = (weight of the residue in g / weight of the sample ) x 106

Lengths of 5 sticks are 60.0 cm, 47.0 cm, 17.0 cm, 43 cm and 30.0 cm What is the mean length of this sample?

How can you test the solutions given by MATLAB for a non linear system of equations?

Write the MATLAB code line that puts the system of nonlinear equations into a function vector: You do not need to solve, just looking for the function matrix F(x). 

Write a MATLAB function code that intakes 5 values (a, b, c, d, and e) and returns the average of the inputs as “average”. Note, this should require no more than 3 or 4 lines of code (you can omit comments).

You create the below function in MATLAB and try to run it from the Script Editor (by hitting the “Run” button). You get an error message saying “Not enough input values”. What do you need to do to get it to actually run? function z = Lawnmower(x,t)       z=1/2*x^2 – x*t + 1; end

Which of the following is not a native file type in MATLAB?

The most important area of activity for mid-Baroque Italian opera was

In the function heading below, what data type must the variable Name be?: function call:   result = calcPay (hours, rate, OTrate, deductions, Name); function heading:   double calcPay (double R, float OTR, int Ded, string Emp)

What will the final value of sales_tax be if the user enters 100 as the sales amount in the following code (assume it is part of a program that otherwise compiles and runs): double sales, taxRate = 0.085;int sales_tax; cout sales; sales_tax = sales * taxRate;
