A company's board consists of 4 people: Abigail (the CEO), Benoit, Charlie, and Debra. When they take a vote, if there is a majority (either up or down), that vote prevails. If, however, there is a tie, then Abigail's vote is the tie-breaker (e.g. if A&B vote up, and C&D vote down, the outcome is "up", because A's vote breaks the tie). The truth table will show all possible combinations of the 4 votes, and the final decision for each.

Katanga Stars is a team of women who perform cultural dance at various functions across the country. The team has a fixed membership of 9 members. Within these 9 members, there is a management committee of 4 members. For each function where they are hired to perform, the amount collected is different and is distributed as follows;• 50% of the fees goes to the consolidated account where each member owns equal shares.• The remaining 50% is shared among the 9 members such that each of the 4 management committee members gets 6.25% and each of the other members not on management committee gets 5%.For example, suppose Katanga Stars is paid UGX 1,000,000/= for a performance at a certain wedding ceremony, then, UGX 500,000/= goes to the consolidated account. Each management committee member gets UGX 62,5000/= while each of the other members gets UGX 50,000/=By assuming that Katanga Stars performs in exactly 5 places in a year, write a C program that performs the following tasks;• Uses a loop…

If the company invests 100,000 USD or less, their profit will be based on 75,000 USD as first 25,000 USD goes to set up the business in the first place. For the first 100,000 USD, the profit margin is low: 4.5%. Therefore, for every 100 dollar they spend, they get a profit of 4.5 dollar. For an investment greater than 100,000 USD, for the first 100,000 USD (actually on 75,000 USD as 25,000 is the setup cost), the profit margin is 4.5% whereas for the rest, it goes up to 8%. For example, if they invest 250,000 USD, they will get an 8% profit for the 150,000 USD. In addition, from the rest 100,000 USD, 25,000 is the setup cost and there will be a 4.5% profit on the rest 75,000. The investment will always be greater or equal to 25,000 and multiple of 100. Complete the RECURSIVE methods below that take an array of integers (investments) and an iterator (always sets to ZERO(‘0’) when the method is initially called) and prints the profit for the corresponding investment.

A person is looking to invest $100,000 in hopes of getting the highest return possible. There are 4 investment options available: bonds, mutual funds, stocks, or a saving account yielding interest. The bonds give a 3% annual return, mutual funds give an 8% return, stocks give a 10% return, and the savings account gives a 2% return (all investments subject to risk). To control for risk, several constraints are put into place: 1. No more than 15% of the total investment can be put into stocks. 2. At least 40% must be invested in mutual funds and/or the savings account. 3. The amount put in the savings account must be no more than the amount put into the other investments combined. 4. The ratio of money invested in bonds and mutual fund to the amount in stocks and the savings account should be at least 1.2 to 1. 5. All $100,000 must be invested and no shorting is allowed (It means there will be no “borrowed” money”) Formulate a linear programming model for this problem to get the highest…
Design Assignment: Texas Hold 'em poker game 2 to 8 human or computer players Each player has a name and stack of chips Computer players have a difficulty setting: easy, medium, hard Summary of each hand: Dealer collects ante from appropriate players, shuffles the deck, and deals each player a hand of 2 cards from the deck.
