100

A constraint is a restriction that limits a design, such as cost, time, power, noise, safety, or available materials.

TRUE. A constraint limits design choices or project conditions. 

100

WHAT IS YOUR TEACHERS FULL NAME?

R.M.L.

100

The ability to connect each requirement to its source, design response, test method, evidence, and final result. 

A. CALIBRATION

B. SYSTEM BOUNDARY

C. TRACEABILITY

C. TRACEABILITY

100

WHAT IS ROOT CAUSE?

The deepest correctable reason a problem occurred; removing it should prevent or greatly reduce recurrence.

100

Criterion compared with constraint

A criterion is a measurable feature used to judge success. A constraint is a restriction that limits the design. Criteria help rank acceptable choices; a hard constraint can eliminate a choice.

200

If two variables are correlated, the correlation proves that one variable caused the other.

FALSE. Correlation shows variables change together; it does not by itself prove causation. 

200

HOW MANY PETS DOES YOUR TEACHER HAVE?

3

200

A preliminary model or working version used to learn, test, or demonstrate selected features. 

A. CALIBRATION

B. PROTOTYPE

C. SYSTEM BOUNDARY

B. PROTOTYPE

200

WHAT IS A CONTROLLED VARIABLE?

A factor intentionally kept constant so it does not unfairly influence the test result.

200

Symptom compared with root cause

 A symptom is an observable effect that signals a problem. A root cause is the deepest correctable reason the problem occurred. Treating only the symptom may allow recurrence.

300

Verification asks whether the solution was built according to technical requirements, while validation asks whether it satisfies user needs.

TRUE. Verification asks “Did we build it correctly?” Validation asks “Did we build the right solution?” 

300

FROM WHAT COLLEGE AND PROGRAM DID MR. MARTINEZ GRADUATE?

UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO (UTEP)

COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (COBA)FINANCE DEGREE WITH ERP CERTIFICATE

RESERVE OFFICER'S TRAINING CORPS (ROTC) 
300

The amount by which measured airflow falls below required or design airflow. 

A. AIRFLOW DEFICIT

B. SYSTEM BOUNDARY

C. CALIBRATION

A. AIRFLOW DEFICIT

300

WHAT IS PRESSURE DROP?

 The decrease in air pressure across a component because the component resists airflow.

300

Quantitative compared with qualitative data

Quantitative data are numerical evidence from counting or measurement. Qualitative data are descriptive, categorical, or observational evidence not expressed mainly as numbers.

400

Differential pressure means the pressures at two measured locations are exactly the same.

FALSE. Differential pressure is the difference between pressures at two locations. 

400

WHAT IS MR. MARTINEZ FAVORITE SPORT?

AIRSOFT

400

The line that defines what is included, excluded, and what crosses into or out of a system. 

A. SYSTEM BOUNDARY

B. RANGE

C. MEAN

A. SYSTEM BOUNDARY

400

WHAT IS THE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS?

 A check of whether the preferred decision changes when weights, assumptions, estimates, or inputs are varied.

400

Verification compared with validation

Verification determines whether the solution meets technical requirements. Validation determines whether the completed solution meets stakeholder needs and its intended purpose.

500

A hard constraint may be ignored when another design criterion receives a high weighted score.

FALSE. Every acceptable solution must meet a hard constraint; otherwise it is rejected. 

500

HOW OLD IS MR. MARTINEZ?

27? Maybe

500

Comparing and adjusting an instrument against a trusted reference. 

A. CALIBRATION

B. VERIFICATION

C. VALIDATION

A. CALIBRATION

500

WHAT IS PASS CONDITION?

 The measurable result that shows a requirement has been met.

500

Supply air compared with return air

Supply air is conditioned air delivered into the occupied room. Return air is room air drawn back to HVAC equipment for re-circulation, filtration, exhaust, or further conditioning.
