The phone slips out of your hands plummeting to the ground 60 feet below. Ignoring air resistance. how fast is your phone traveling by the time it hits the ground ? [ Hint: 1 meter = 3.28 feet ] ( Circle one answer)

A.) 19mph

B.) 42 mph

C.) 37mph

Two towns had a population of 12,000 in 1990. By 2000, the population of town A had increased by  13⁢ % while the population of town B had decreased by  13⁢ %. Assume these growth and decay rates continued.

a. Write two exponential population models A(T) and B(T) for towns A and B, respectively, where T is the number of decades since 1990.

A(T)=

12000*e0.12*T

B(T)=

12000*e−0.14*T

b. Write two new exponential models a(t) and b(t) for towns A and B, where t is the number of years since 1990.

Give the answers in the form C⋅at. Round the growth factor to four decimal places.

a(t)=

12000*1.13t

b(t)=

12000*0.87t

c. Find A(2), B(2), a(20), and b(20) and explain what you have found.

Round your answers to the nearest integer.

A(2)=

B(2)=

a(20)=

b(20)=

Each of these values represent the population

World famous Burpee Beer is brewed in the small town of West Burpee. Curently, the town of West Burpee levies a $2 per-case tax on all Burpee Beer, and the brewery sells 20,000 cases a year at a total price of $20 per case. The mayor of West Burpee has decided to erect a statue of himself in the town square at a cost of $20,000 and wants to raise the money from additional tax revenue from sales of Burpee Beer. He has asked each of the three town council members to come up with a plan to raise the additional $20,000, and their plans are as follows: Council Member Simpson advises increasing the per-case tax by $1, Council member Milhouse advises raising the tax by $2 per case, and council member Flanders advises reducing the current tax by $0.50 per case. For each of the three council member's plans, determine the following:

a. How many total cases of beer would need to be produced in to increase tax revenue by exactly $20,000?

b. What is the price elasticity of demand for Burpee Beer if the tax revenue increases by exactly $20,000?

c. How much total revenue will Burpee Beer receive if the tax revenue increases by exactly $20,000?

Residents from the Town of Mountain View authorized a $7,400,000 renovation to their historic town hall on November 15, 2016. Financing for the project consists of $2,800,000 from a 5 percent serial bond issue, $2,400,000 from a state grant, and $2,200,000 from the General Fund. Debt service for the serial bonds will be provided by a one-quarter-cent city sales tax imposed on every dollar of sales in the city. The town has a calendar year-end.

Prepare journal entries to record the related transactions in the town’s capital projects fund, debt service fund, and governmental activities at the government-wide level. (Do not round intermediate calculations. If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)

Practice question 6

A recent article reported that a job awaits only one in three (0.33) new college graduates. The major reasons given were an overabundance of college graduates and a weak economy. A survey of 200 recent graduates from your school revealed that 80 students had jobs. At the .01 significance level, can we conclude that a larger proportion of students at your school have jobs?

A     The Null Hypothesis is:

a    Job awaiting new college graduates is _______.

b    Job awaiting new college graduates is greater than _______.

c    Job awaiting new college graduates is less than         _______.

d Job awaiting new college graduates is not equal to      _______.

Answer the question by: Selecting the appropriate letter and then entering the correct number for the Null Hypothesis.
Enter numerical value of the Null Hypothesis as a fraction or a 2 place decimal with a 0 to the left of the decimal point..

B    The Alternate Hypothesis is:

a    Job awaiting new college graduates is equal to          ______.

b    Job awaiting new college graduates is greater than    ______.

c    Job awaiting new college graduates is less than        ______.

d    Job awaiting new college graduates is not equal to      ______.

Answer the question by:

Selecting the appropriate letter and then entering the correct number for the Alternate Hypothesis.
Enter numerical value of the Alternate Hypothesis as a fraction or a 2 place decimal with a 0 to the left of the decimal point..

  1. Sandra “has it all”: a handsome and successful husband, a beautiful home in the city, and healthy gorgeous twin girls, aged 5. Most importantly, she is a busy venture capitalist who invests in start up businesses. However, she is also the primary caregiver to her invalid father who refuses to move into a nursing home and lives in his own apartment across town. She is what we call a member of ‘the sandwich generation’ and needs help managing everything.

Sandra decides to advertise and interview for three different positions: 1) a personal caregiver for her father; 2) a nanny for her daughters; and 3) a personal assistant for herself. Her father is a lovely man but holds outdated opinions on a number of issues, including, sadly, Japanese, Germans and Italians. He has never forgiven them for what happened in World War Two. He wouldn’t tolerate anyone of those backgrounds being his caregiver. Sandra would like her daughters to learn Mandarin and so wants to only hire someone Chinese as her daughters’ nanny to speak to them entirely in proper and correct Mandarin. Lastly, her husband is a very jealous man and would not tolerate her having a male assistant so she must only hire a woman for that job.

What Human Rights Code issues must Sandra be aware of in both advertising and interviewing for these positions? Will she be able to hire who she wishes or will there be any HRC violations in any or all of these situations? Refer to case and statute law where appropriate in support.
