Wealth is usually more unequally distributed than earnings. This is mainly because:

For the monoclinic system shown below, draw in the crystal direction: [123]  

Index the illustrated plane (a) in the tetragonal system and (b) in the unit cubic cell drawn below  

The ideal participating group for a focus group is 6-12 individuals with similar characteristics but do not know each other well. 

Note: Show your calculations clearly on the paper and show your work clearly on the graph or else you will lose points! Given the phase diagram below: At 10 w.% Cu, indicate on the phase diagram what phases are present at 800 °C. At 10 w.% Cu, to the best of your ability, estimate the composition of all of the phases present at 800 °C Sketch the microstructures and write the names of the phases present at the numbered points.
