Answer:

The three scenarios are following

1- Murder at a house

2- Robbery in Bank

3- Road Accident

Explanation:

1- Murder at a house

When narrowing down the suspects of Murder, investigators will examine fingerprints and DNA to create a list of genetic qualities present. DNA analysis is based on locating similar patterns from a human sample and samples located at the crime scene. The time frame can be constructed by using measurements such as the temperature of the victim and the surrounding area

2- Robbery in Bank

Crime-scene investigators will gather data and then compare this information to existing databases to determine information such as the physical characteristics of a suspect. Examining the foot prints , investigators are able to determine how much a suspect weighs by comparing the depth of the print to a list of constants

3- Road Accident

Whether it is blood splatters, accident investigators are able to use mathematics to determine the trajectory of a falling object. Every object that is propelled through the air falls in an arc that can be measured to determine the speed and location from which the object began.

Natalie owns a condominium near Cocoa Beach in Florida. This year, she incurs the following expenses in connection with her cond
kumpel [21]

Answer and Explanation:

Natalie's Gross Income = $10,000

75 + 35 = 110 days

Expenses:

Insurance Expense (75/110) x 1000                 682

Advertising Expense                                        500

Mortgage Interest (75/110) x 3500                  2386

Property Taxes (75/110) x 900                         614

Repairs and Maintenance (75/110) x 650        443

Utilities    (75/110) x 950                                   648

Depreciation (75/110) x 8500                          5795

Until the depreciation expenses the total expenses accumulate to  5273. If we deduct that with the gross income total we get 4727. We can only deduct 4727 from the total portion of 5795 depreciation expense.

Therefore, for AGI deductions we take total of (5273 + 4727) = $10,000

For Natalie's personal deduction of AGI

Mortgage interest (35/110) x 3500                    1114

Property taxes (35/110) x 900                            286

Total personal deduction for AGI                    $1400
