Think of the organizations in your discipline.  

What are the typical organizational structures you see?  

Are they effective?  

How would you make them more effective? 

Most companies hire individuals and hope that these individuals can come together to form a cohesive team.  But what if you hired teams instead of individuals? 

Discuss the pros and cons of hiring an entire, already-established team instead of individuals - it's an "all-or-nothing" approach to hiring.

 Now that you have assessed your motivation, were you surprised?  Was it accurate?  Explain your motivational tendencies by referring to ERG theory.  In other words, use ERG theory to help you explain what motivates you.

We now know the different perspectives of the balanced scorecard (customer, financial, internal processes and learning and growth).  Based on everything we have learned in this course, how might you update and improve the balanced scorecard?  What new perspectives and measures might you add to reflect the performance measures companies have recently included in their bottom lines?

If you owned a business and you decided that it was time to expand globally, what globalization strategy would you consider?  Why?

An approximation method with a stepsize of h = 0.7 produces an error of 0.4. If the approximation method used has an error which is O(h^3 ), what would you expect the error to be if a stepsize of h = 0.2 had been used instead (give your answer rounded to 6 decimal places)? (5 marks)

(b) An approximation method which is O(h^4 ) produces an error of 0.8 when a stepsize of h = 0.5 is used. What stepsize should be used to obtain an error of about 0.2 instead? Give your final answer rounded to two decimal places. (5 marks)

(c) Prove that f(x) = 7x^6 − 17x^4 + 8x is NOT O(x^2 ) as x → 0.

If the concentration of red dye #40 in the original syrup is 4.68 x M, what is its concentration in dilution #3 ?

Crude iron is obtained in a blast furnace by reaction of iron ore, one component of which is

magnetite, Fe3O4, with carbon monoxide:

Fe3O4 (s) + 4 CO (g) 3 Fe (l) + 4 CO2 (g)

The carbon monoxide, in turn, is prepared in part by the combustion of coke, which is 85 to 90%

percent by weight carbon, according to the reaction

2 C (s) + O2 (g) –––> 2 CO (g)

How many kilograms of Fe3O4 are required to prepare 1.00 kg of crude iron? How many kilograms of

coke, assumed to be 90% by weight carbon, are needed?
