Testosterone is apparently a very costly hormone for males to produce and use. Why, then, has natur selection rested in the males of some species investing in producing and using this hormone?. Because male animals share a common ancestor that used testosterone adaptively, and they continue to do so today Because testosterone helps ensure that males will be motivated to search for and to find all the receptive females oi tra speces. thereby benefitting their species as a whole. Because under a variety of circumstances, the hormone makes is possible for males to be either aggressive or senaly motivadi o ways that increase individual genetic success Because males that are able to pay the price for producing and using testosterone are demonstrating that they are able to overcume. this handicap, which means that they are genetically worthy members of the breeding stock for their population

GOAL: SOLVE FOR THE 6 CURRENTS IN THE CIRCUIT. Problem Description: Read chapter section 8.3 (Case Study) in the textbook. Perform the same computation for the circuit given in Figure P8.14 (in the Chapter 8 Problems section, and reproduced below), using Gauss Elimination with Partial Pivoting. Follow the assumed current directions shown in Figure 8.10 of the textbook. When converting your system of equations to a matrix equation, use the same {i} vector as in the case study: i=[i12, i52, i32, i65, i54, i43] ' Using a different algorithm -.- including, but not limited to, the "backslash" operator in MATLAB - . may result in no credit for your solution. function x=GaussPi vot(A,b) of GaussPivot: Gauss elimination pivoting of x Gaussivot (A,b) : Gauss elimination with pivoting. & input: & A= coefficient matrix of b= right hand side vector output: s x= solution vector [m,n]=size(A); if m∼n, error('Matrix A must be square'); end nb=n+1; Aug =[[A,b]]; forward elimination for k=1:n-1 % partial pivoting [big,i]=max(abs(Aug(k:n,k))); ipr =i+k-1; if ipr ∼=k Aug([k,1pr],:)=Aug([ipr,k],:); end for i=k+1:n factor =Aug(i,k)/(A)ug(k,k); Aug(i,k:nb)=Aug(i,k:nb)-factor**Aug(k,k:nb); end end & back substitution x=zeros(n,1); x(n)=Aug(n,nb)/(A)ug(n,n); for i=n-1:-1:1 x(i)=(Aug(i,nb)-Aug(i,i+1:n)**x(i+1:n))/(A)ug(i,i); end Problem Description: Read chapter section 8.3(Case Study in the textbook.

4. (20 points) (20 points) Consider the simplistic model for killing cancer cells. A tissue consists of an n x n grid. The cancerous cells on the grid are given to you as input. To kill the cancerous cell you have a laser beam. You can select a row/ a column and pass a beam through it. This kills all the cancer cells in that particular row/column. However, hitting a row/a column with a laser beam is an immensely expensive procedure. 2 8 3 8 2 The blue cells are the cancer cells. Left is a suboptimal solution of cost 4. Right one is optimal with cost 3. Design an algorithm that outputs the minimum set of columns and rows such that if you hit these rows and columns with the laser beam then it kills all the cancerous cells in the tissue.
