Calculating delivery charges in Python.

The user will enter the purchase total, the number of the items and delivery day for calculating the delivery cost. Once the cost has been calculated, the program should correctly display the delivery cost and total cost for the user.

For example, if a user enters “$200” as purchase total, “7” as the number of the items and “1” as delivery in the same day, the program should be able to display the delivery cost of “17.50" and the total cost of “$217.50” ($200 + $17.50 ) for the user.

This program must be built by using sequence programming (without using functions) in Pythoin

After reviewing the standards of performance, you find that the hotel has determined that the standard of performance for room cleanliness requires that 75% of customers respond “completely satisfied”. You decide that corrective action is needed in order to raise the customer satisfaction rating. You meet with your assistant managers, Katherine and Brian, to discuss the situation. They each offer a different suggestion on what you should do next. Brian thinks the housekeeping staff is doing a great job at cleaning the rooms. The problem, he thinks, is that customers have become too picky and expect a five star hotel at three star prices. He suggests that you lower the standards of performance to 70%. Katherine disagrees and thinks you should hold mandatory meetings in order to retrain the housekeeping staff. Even though customers are picky, the hotel should be able to rise up and meet the current standard of performance.

What should you do?

A)Agree with Katherine, and require mandatory training sessions with the housekeeping staff.

B)Agree with Brian and lower the standard of performance to have 70% of guests “completely satisfied”.

1. Normally, the flow of electrons to O2 is tightly linked to the production of ATP via the electrochemical gradient. If ATP synthase is inhibited, for example, electrons do not flow down the electron-transport chain and respiration ceases. Since the 1940s, several substances— such as 2,4-dini-trophenol (DNP)—have been known to uncouple electron flow from ATP synthesis (see figure to the right). DNP dissipates the proton gradient by carrying H+ across the inner mitochondrial membrane through simple diffusion-mediated transport. DNP was once prescribed as a diet drug to aid in weight loss.
   1. A) (3pt) How would an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation promote weight loss? (5 sentence max)
   2. B) (2pt) Why do you suppose dinitrophenol is no longer prescribed? (5 sentence max)

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

Julie Miller supervisor of housecleaning for Hotel Minto, was surprised by her summary report for March given below.

Julie was disappointed. She thought she had done a good job controlling housekeeping labor and towel usage, but her performance report revealed an unfavorable variance of $12,111. She had been hoping for a bonus for her good work, but now expected a series of questions from her manager.

The cost budget for housekeeping is based on standard costs. At the beginning of a month, Julie receives a report from Hotel Minto’s Sales Department outlining the planned room activity for the month. Julie then schedules labor and purchases using this information. The budget for the housekeeping was based on 8,000 room nights. Each room night is budgeted based on the following standards for various materials, labor, and overhead:

With 8,900 room nights sold, actual costs and usage for housekeeping during April were:

Required:

You have been asked to re-evaluate Julie’s performance.

Prepare a report to Julie’s boss demonstrating and explaining your findings; including your suggestions for performance evaluation methods and measures in the future.

Explain what your report suggests about Kathys departiment erformance.

For the next four questions, consider the following table of a city consisting of five districts that is debating where to build a new stadium and a free public wifi network. The table shows the benefit (positive) or harm (negative) in each city district from doing these projects.

The socially best outcome (highest total benefit to the whole city) is to

Question 11 options:

If there is no vote trading and the representative for each district votes on each project separately to maximize benefit to his or her own district, then

Question 12 options:

Suppose that both proposals are voted on as a package (a representative can vote yes or no to the package of both proposals, but not yes or no on each project individually). Representatives vote to maximize the benefit to their own districts. The outcome of this voting will be to

Question 13 options:

Suppose that the district 4 will have a harm of -50 from the wi-fi network instead of a benefit of 300. In this case, the representative for district 3 will vote against the wi-fi network when projects are voted on individually (so neither one gets built). Now suppose that the district 4 representative offers to vote yes on the wi-fi network if the representative from district 2 votes yes on the stadium. Which of the following is correct?

Question 14 options:
