- Going missing Some calculations involving blank values may give different results to what you might expect. For example, when you pass a blank value into the AND() function, it is treated as TRUE. This is often unhelpful. To make blanks behave in a sensible way in calculations, you must first convert them to be "not available" using NA(). This function takes no inputs, and returns a missing value. To convert a blank value to a missing value, use this pattern. =IF(ISBLANK(cell), NA(), cell) Instruction In column H, use AND() to find women who have kids and get benefits. In column I, convert the blanks in column G to missing values. In column J, again find women who have kids and get benefits, this time using column I rather than G. please show the formula used to "has kids and gets benefits" , "gets benefits with missing values", has kids and gets benefits".

- A = 3 B = 6 C = 9 D= 7 mod10(X) is a function that returns the modulus of X after dividing it to 10. abs(X) is a function that returns the absolute value of X.

A balanced word is one where the sum of the values on the left side of the word equals the sum of the values on the right side. For odd-length words, the middle character (balance point) is ignored. Write a function that returns true if the word is balanced and false if it is not. Examples balance("zips") → true // "zips" = "zi|ps" "zips" = 26+9 | 16+19 = 35 35 = true balanced ("brake") → false // "brake" = "br|ke" = 2+18 11+5 = 2016 = false liarrow_forwardLet A = {1, 2,3} and B = {a, b, c, d} What is the function from a to b?arrow_forward

- Solution please.arrow_forwardIn Matlab: Write a function that takes a month, day, and year as inputs and returns the number of days that have passed since January 1, 780, the year al-Khwarizmi, the "father of algebra", was born (include the 1/1/780 date as day 1). The function should include a subroutine to deal with all leap year calculations. The subroutine is a function that will take a year as an input and will return a 1 if that year is a leap year or a 0 if that year is not a leap year. As a check, the number of days between 1/1/780 and 6/21/2011 is 449,786.
