Distinguish between dependent and independent variables.

Question 2

Explain how you determined the magnitude of the divisions for both the x and y axes in order to plot a graph that utilizes the major portion of the graph paper.

Question 3

The graphs below show the phasors Vmax and Imax for five RLC series circuits. The solid arrows represent the voltage phasors, V, and the dashed arrows represent the current phasors, Imax. Which graph represents a circuit where the capacitive reactance is greater than the inductive reactance?
   
  a.
 
   
  b.
 
   
  c.
 
   
  d.
 
   
  e.

Answer to Question 1

The independent variable produces a change in the dependent variable. The
dependent variable is, therefore, referred to as a function of the independent variable.

Answer to Question 2

The following is one method for choosing
convenient spacing. First, examine the data and determine the maximum values to be
plotted on each axis. Next, determine how many divisions are needed so that the
maximum value for each variable will fit on the graph. There are 10 divisions per
inch on each axis, so choose spacing that will make each division an even number.
This will make interpolation easier.

The types of cancer that alpha interferons are used to treat include hairy cell leukemia, melanoma, follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

In 1886, William Bates reported on the discovery of a substance produced by the adrenal gland that turned out to be epinephrine (adrenaline). In 1904, this drug was first artificially synthesized by Friedrich Stolz.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

A cataract is a clouding of the eyes' natural lens. As we age, some clouding of the lens may occur. The first sign of a cataract is usually blurry vision. Although glasses and other visual aids may at first help a person with cataracts, surgery may become inevitable. Cataract surgery is very successful in restoring vision, and it is the most frequently performed surgery in the United States.
