Match the lines 1-5 with their corresponding measurement using a 1/2” = 1′-0” scale.

Upload an image of your dwg here. MAKE SURE your image is “squared up” in the frame and not at an angle or skewed.  NOTE: If this is not the same drawing you completed in the video, it will not be graded. If it is not easily viewable, skewed, obscured, etc, it will not be graded. 

Paste the LINK to your video of you drawing this assignment here. Make sure: I can physically see it’s you drawing the assignment. You SHOW ME the completed drawing in the video.  You WRITE THE DIMENSION between points 1 and point 5 on the page in large numbers so it can be easily read. It’s a LINK to a video. (You can upload your video to dropbox, google drive, youtube, etc. But MAKE SURE it has been set to public.) If I can’t see you in the video or it’s not one continuous video, if you don’t show me the drawing at the end, if you haven’t written down the distance between pt 1 and pt 5, if the video isn’t set to public, or if the video appears altered in any way, it will not be graded. 

Explain the role of data in model development. How does the availability, quality, and quantity of data impact the accuracy of a model?

Discuss the role of abstraction and simplification in modeling. Why is it necessary to simplify real-world systems when building models? What are some potential trade-offs of oversimplification?

Which of the following statements about deterministic models is true?

A mathematical model must always include differential or difference equations to be valid.

Explain two of the ways to prevent malaria from spreading.  Don’t just list 2 things; you need to explain in a few sentences how each measure prevents malaria.
