Carmelo Anthony for Tobias Harris and Deron Williams?
I've been pretty sick of Melo's inconsistency and I just got this offer. Because it's a 2 for 1 trade I'm not sure how to judge it. Could this move help me? I'm in a category league (points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, FG percentage, 3P percentage). Turnovers aren't really a big deal to me because I usually lose that category every week.
1 AnswerBasketball4 years ago8 team fantasy league: 6 or 8 playoff teams?
I'm trying to decide whether or not all teams in our category fantasy league make the Playoffs. It's just for fun but we've debated a lot on this.
With 6, you actually have to fight to get in the Playoffs and the division winners also get a bye. With 8 it's a nice square bracket that makes everyone have to win 3 games to win the championship. Any opinions?
6 AnswersFantasy Sports5 years agoLaw of conservation of mass problem?
I'm pretty sure this is a conservation of mass problem, but I apologize if I'm wrong.
When 60.0 g of carbon is burned in 160.0 g of oxygen, 220.0 g of carbon dioxide is formed. What mass of carbon dioxide is formed when 60.0 g of carbon is burned in 750.0 g of oxygen?
The answer says 220.0 g. Why does increasing the oxygen not change the amount of carbon dioxide formed?
1 AnswerChemistry5 years agoIs it legal for a company to make more than one copyright claim on the same content?
I have had a video copyright claimed by a company, which I then submitted a counterclaim for and had the video reinstated. Since then I have had numerous claims from the same company and have had to make the exact same counterclaim to reinstate the video. With the verdict having been previously reached (that the video is not a violation of copyright law) is it legal for a company to make that same claim again?

3 AnswersProgramming & Design5 years agoHow can Islamophobia be reduced in the U.S.?
I'm writing a paper about how a threat against Muslims in our school comes from the bigger problem of Islamophobia in our country. So I looked up why Islamophobia was a problem in the U.S., then looked for some ways it could be reduced in our country, though I didn't find much I could write about. What CAN cause America's disdain of Muslims to decrease?

1 AnswerMathematics6 years agoAre the functions linearly independent in C(0,1)?
{ln(x), ln(x+1), ln((x+1)^2)}
My attempt: ln((x+1)^2) = 2ln(x+1), which can be written as a scalar multiple of ln(x+1). Does that alone prove that the function is linearly dependent?
1 AnswerMathematics6 years agoGiven A^3, find det(A)?
A is a 3x3 matrix.
Here's what I did: using my computer I calculated the determinant of A^3 to be -8. But then couldn't I say that det(A^3) = det(A) * det(A) * det(A), meaning that [det(A)]^3 = -8 and therefore det(A) = -2? Or is this not a valid way to prove this?
1 AnswerMathematics6 years agoEvaluate the given integral by changing to polar coordinates?
(Integral)(Integral)(2x-y)dA, where R is the region in the first quadrant enclosed by the circle
x^2 + y^2 = 16 and the lines x = 0 and y = x
I'm having trouble with the limits of integration.
1 AnswerMathematics6 years agoCalculate the double integral?
(Integral sign)(Integral sign with R on the bottom) of [6x/(1+xy)]dA, R = [0,6] x [0,1]
I tried this using integrals by parts and got 90. I used Wolfram's double integral calculator and 6(7log(7) - 6). So now I'm scared to use either answer.
3 AnswersMathematics6 years agoAre these spanning sets? Why?
Set 1: [1,1,3]^T & [0,2,1]^T in R^3
Set 2: [1,1,0,0]^T, [1,-1,1,0]^T, [0,2,0,1]^T in R^4
Both end up with a row of 0s in reduced row echelon form, so why is Set 2 a span while Set 1 isn't?
1 AnswerMathematics6 years agoAre y1, y2, and y3 linearly independent? Prove your answer?
Let x1, x2, and x3 be linearly independent vectors in R^n and let
y1 = x1 + x2
y2 = x2 + x3
y3 = x3 + x1
So, what I did was change the equation into ay1 + by2 + cy3 = 0
Then I plugged in the x's and got a(x1+x2) + b(x2+x3) + c(x3+x1).
Then I changed it to this form:
x1(a+c) + x2(a+b) + x3(b+c)
I put it in an augmented matrix
[1,0,1 | x1
1,1,0 | x2
0,1,1 | x3]
And since there are no free variables, doesn't that make y1, y2, and y3 independent? I feel like I did something wrong though because of a similar problem I found online. What are the steps I should take to figure this out?
1 AnswerMathematics6 years agoWhy is this a spanning set?
{(1,0,0)^T,(0,1,1)^T,(1,0,1)^T,(1,2,3)^T}
There's 3 equations I can make out of this, but 4 unknowns, so why is this a spanning set?
2 AnswersMathematics6 years agoLet A and B be 3x3 matrices with det(A) = 4 and det(B) = 5. Find the values?
det(A) = 4
det(B) = 5
a) det(AB)
b) det(3A)
c) det(2AB)
d) det (A^(-1)*B)
Some I'm pretty confident about some but others I just guessed on. I need to check my answers, so if you could show the steps I'd really appreciate it, especially with the last two.

1 AnswerPsychology6 years agoHow to fix lag on the PC?
I'm using a Intel HD 4600 Graphics card, so I know my laptop isn't built specifically for gaming. I was fine with running my game (NBA 2K16) on low settings, but no matter what I change, the game seems to run on the exact same amount of lag. I can run the game and the main menu works fine, but when I go into an actual game is when the lag starts up. I'm willing to play on low settings, but I just need to know what to change to make the game run smoother.
