AWR 201- writing research

Short paper
For class, we have read three selections from They say, I say on the topic, are we in a race against the machine?" in nicholas carr's essay, we have been presented with arguments that computers and digital technologies are endangering our intellectual abilities to think deeply, and instead replacing them with scattered attention and diffused concentration. In the excerpt from the "smarter than you think," live Thomson suggests that thinking has always been augmented by various technologies (the printed word, pen and paper, etc). The answer to the question, "which is smarter-the computer or the brain?" is neither.Your responsibility is now to find at least three additional sources outside of they say, I say, to formulate your own response to this topic that is either critical or supportive of the reole digital technologies have come to play in our lives. You may approach this from a more cognitive perspective (e.g Carr and Thompson), or you may choose a more social/ relational perspective (e.g Gladwell). I would caution, however against focusing solely on the practical advantages that digital technologies afford us. All three of the authors we have read so far acknowledge benefits of speed and convenience afforded by new technology. You want to identify a position that is more debatable or controversial.
You need only to use these three sources in your paper. You should not include the selections we already read for class. Be careful not to fall into the binary trap of being either apocalyptic (doomsday prophet) or utopian (blindly idealistic). Consider and respond to your three chosen texts specifically. That is you should identify certain claims or positions explicitly from yor references you've chosen and respond to them with specific detail.
The market demand curve will thus take the form P=a-bQ and the market supply curve will take the form P=cQ+d suppose that some market consists of 100 buyers and 10 sellers. Each buyer has an identical individual demand curve, P=300-3Q
A firm with costs C(Q) = 1; 000 + 60Q + 0:1Q2 is able to price-discriminate between two groups of customers, with demands Q1 = 3; 000-2p, and Q2 = 350-0:5p respectively. How much does it sell to each group, and at what price
Consider a firm subject to quarter-to-quarter variation in its sales. Suppose that the following equation was estimated using quarterly data for the period 2006-2013 (the time variable goes from 1 to 32). The variables D1, D2 and D3 are , respecti..
A monopolist faces demand given by: P = 100 - 0.4Qd, and has marginal costs given by MC = 10 + 0.2Q a. draw the demand, marginal revenue and marginal cost curves. Calculate and show how much this firm will sell and what they will charge.
A per unit excise tax is imposed on product X, and the market supply with the tax is now given Qs=p-12. add this supply curve to your graph and identify the new equilibrium price and equilbrium quantity. What is the value of the per unit tax
Why do they not expand indefinitely?
Your company owns a parcel of land in a currently undeveloped part of the county. As the neighboring city grows eastward, you believe there is a 50% chance of residential development, a 20% chance of industrial development, and a 30% chance of no ..
At what price is total revenue maximized?
We can either look at a tax increasing the costs to the consumer or producer (depending on which party physically pays the tax), or we can look at it as a wedge between the (full) price the consumer pays and the (net) revenue the firm receives.
Based on both research and the above figures, briefly discuss whether the country you have been assigned to and Australia was hurt more by the GFC in terms of changes in real GDP and unemployment.
When the price of oranges increases from $1.00 per pound to $1.50 per pound, quantity demanded falls from 500 pounds to 400 pounds. Calculate the price elasticity of demand. Is the demand for oranges price elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic.
Home Depot and Lowes can hire a gardener to maintain a common area for $110 for each of the three summer months (June, July, August). Each month that the common area is maintained, Home Depot expects to gain $100 more profit and Lowes $50 more pro..
