convex, give a proof. If it is not convex, give a counterexample. Answer (a) (x, y)|y = ex This set is not convex. Any combination of points would be outside the set. For example, (0, 1) and 1 / (1, e) ∈ (x, y)|y = ex , but combination of the two vectors with t = 2 not: ( 1 , e+1 ) ∈ 2 2 x (x, y)|y = e . (b) (x, y)|y ≥ ex This set is convex. Proof: Let (x1 , y1 ), (x2 , y2 ) ∈ S = (x, y)|y ≥ ex . Since y = ex is a continuous function, it is sufficient to show that (tx1 + (1 − t)x2 , ty1 + (1 − t)y2

While apple seems to display numerous products and conduct business on different segments, it is legitimate to wonder what the company is really good at? Too much diversity is exactly what crushed Apple during the John Scully days. Cannibalization (CI#2): Through January 2005, Apple has opened 102 retail stores. Although these launches are potentially beneficial, Apple stores are hurting the resellers’
