Number System Conversions and Boolean Simplification
Number System Conversions
A. Binary to Hexadecimal
Convert (10000101)₂ to hexadecimal:
1. Group the binary digits into sets of four, starting from the right: 1000 0101
2. Convert each group to its hexadecimal equivalent:
- 1000₂ = 8₁₆
- 0101₂ = 5₁₆
Therefore, (10000101)₂ = (85)₁₆
B. Hexadecimal to Decimal
Convert (AA)₁₆ to decimal:
(AA)₁₆ = (10 × 16¹) + (10 × 16⁰) = 160 + 10 = (170)₁₀
C. Decimal to Binary
Convert (5.15)₁₀ to binary:
Integer Part
Convert 5₁₀ to binary:
- 5
Human vs. Machine Translation: Bridging the Language Gap
Decoding Words or Capturing Meaning?
In the race to break language barriers, a fundamental question arises: are machines simply decoding words, or is human translation still crucial for capturing the true heart and meaning of a text? Machine translation relies on algorithms and vast datasets to instantly convert text between languages. However, it often struggles with nuanced meanings, idioms, and cultural contexts. Human translation, conversely, leverages the translator’s expertise, cultural understanding,

Inventory Management
Introduction
Inventories are collections of raw materials, supplies, components, work-in-progress, and finished products found throughout a company’s production and logistics channels. Maintaining these inventories can cost between 2% and 4% of their value annually.
Inventory Systems
An inventory system consists of policies and controls designed to:
- Monitor inventory levels
- Determine optimal stock levels
- Establish replenishment schedules
- Determine order sizes

Airfoils
General Values:
NACA 2412 
Conservation of Mass: ṁ1 = ṁ2 (ρ1*V1*A1 = ρ2*V2*A2)
#1: Chamber (0.02 * cord length)
Bernoulli’s Principle: 
#2: Chamber Location (0.4 * cord length)
Dynamic Pressure (q): q = (1/2) * ρ * V^2
#3+4: Max Thickness (0.12 * cord length)
Ideal Gas Law: P = ρ / (R * T)
Lift Coefficient (cL): cL = L / (q * span * cord)
Gas Constant (R): R = (8.314 / M), where M is the molar mass of the gas. For air, R = 287 (m^2/(s^2K))
Drag Coefficient (cD): cD = D / (q * span * cord)

Substantive Subordinate Clauses
These clauses are named “substantive” because they function as noun phrases (NPs) or prepositional phrases (PrePs), which are essentially NPs preceded by a preposition.
Types of Substantive Subordinate Clauses: The type and function coincide, meaning there are as many types as syntactic functions. They can perform the functions of an NP or a PreP, including subject, direct object, attribute, régimen verbal, noun complement, adjectival complement, and adverbial complement.
Understanding Land Titles, Legal Descriptions, and Boundaries
