Question Alignment Non-Alignment Other Observations
Is there Regional Coherence and what can be done to improve or strengthen? Recognition of critical role of collaboration; Coherence exists yet room for improvement remains; Commitment to supporting further developments Stronger coherence in Wales with the Public Sector; Stronger Coherence in Texas with Private Sector Welsh Assembly Government Supports Regional Coherence; At the institutional levels it is seen that there is a hindrance from senior management
Are institutions across the region responsive to the collaboration agenda? In the main all are responsive; Institutional responsiveness is led by individuals Greater cajoling needed on the Welsh side Within Wales, funding mechanisms have not yet driven collaboration
Do you see collaboration as a strategic imperative for institutions? All agree, Yes Some institutions see collaboration as a “means”, others as an “end” On both sides it was seen to be away of accessing more research funds and drives ratings
What do you see the role of government as being? Facilitator&Funder; Providing light touch support Texas no government involvement at Board level
Is the regional cluster growing and in the right direction? All agree, Yes Within Wales dual agendas of Healthcare delivery and Broader-Education and Economic Development Agenda Texas am more Mature Cluster, Wales is still in its Infancy; Both recognize the Economic Impact of the Sector

Wayne and Dennis like to ride the bike path from Riverside Park to the beach. Dennis’s speed is seven miles per hour faster than Wayne’s speed, so it takes Wayne 2 hours to ride to the beach while it takes Dennis 1.5 hours for the ride. Find the speed of both bikers.

from theory: distance [miles] = speed [mph] × time [hours] info #1 speed_Dennis × 1.5 = speed_Wayne × 2 => speed_Wayne = 0.75 × speed_Dennis (i) info #2 speed_Dennis = speed_Wayne + 7 [mph] (ii) use (i) in (ii) => [...] speed_Dennis = 28 mph speed_Wayne = 21 mph
George
Let W be Wayne's speed in miles per hour and D be Dennis's speed in miles per hour. We know that W + 7 = D and W * 2 = D * 1.5. Substituting the first equation into the second: W * 2 = (W + 7) * 1.5 W * 2 = W * 1.5 + 7 * 1.5 0.5 * W = 7 * 1.5 W = 7 * 3 or 21 W is 21 D = W + 7 D = 21 + 7 D = 28

Shakir works at a computer store. His weekly pay will be either a fixed amount, $925, or $500 plus 12% of his total sales. How much should his total sales be for his variable pay option to exceed the fixed amount of $925.
mahnoor Reply
I'm guessing, but it's somewhere around $4335.00 I think
Lewis
12% of sales will need to exceed 925 - 500, or 425 to exceed fixed amount option. What amount of sales does that equal? 425 ÷ (12÷100) = 3541.67. So the answer is sales greater than 3541.67. Check: Sales = 3542 Commission 12%=425.04 Pay = 500 + 425.04 = 925.04. 925.04 > 925.00
