Assets allocation:
- Assume the following,
- Let “A” be the points allocated to Ann.
- Let “B” be the points allocated to Ben.
- Let “Rt” be the fraction of the “retirement” property given to Ann.
- Let “H” be the fraction of the “home” property given to Ann.
- Let “S” be the fraction of the “summer cottage” property given to Ann.
- Let “I” be the fraction of the “investments” property given to Ann.
- Let “Mis” be the fraction of the “miscellaneous assets” property given to Ann...
Explanation of Solution
Problem:
- To divide the properties between Ann and Ben, without any contradiction, the fraction of assets should be considered.
- Let “A” be the points allocated to Ann.

Katanga Stars is a team of women who perform cultural dance at various functions across the country. The team has a fixed membership of 9 members. Within these 9 members, there is a management committee of 4 members. For each function where they are hired to perform, the amount collected is different and is distributed as follows;• 50% of the fees goes to the consolidated account where each member owns equal shares.• The remaining 50% is shared among the 9 members such that each of the 4 management committee members gets 6.25% and each of the other members not on management committee gets 5%.For example, suppose Katanga Stars is paid UGX 1,000,000/= for a performance at a certain wedding ceremony, then, UGX 500,000/= goes to the consolidated account. Each management committee member gets UGX 62,5000/= while each of the other members gets UGX 50,000/=By assuming that Katanga Stars performs in exactly 5 places in a year, write a C program that performs the following tasks;• Uses a loop…

Students are allowed to enrol in a maximum of 5 units in any given seme ster. They can only be enrolled into a single course at any given point in time. However, over a student's lifetime, they may undertake a number of different courses. Each unit has a set fee that is set at the start of the semester. This fee is to be paid up-front in full by the students once enrolled. Some units have pre-requisite unit requirements. Some units have co-requisite unit requirements.

Once a team loses it is out of the tournament. Every team must play until it is eliminated. The starting positions for each team are fixed. A matchup (X,Y) represents a game between teams X and Y. A round is the set of all the matchups at a given stage of the tournament (the matchups above the round title in the diagram). Thus round 3 in the diagram below is the set {(D, E), (I,O)} of matchups. An outcome is the union of all the matchups along with the winner.
