When two births are randomly selected, the sample space for genders is bb, bg, gb, and gg. Assume that those four outcomes are equally likely. Construct a table that describes the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of girls from two births.
Does the mean of the sample proportions equal the proportion of girls in two births?
Does the result suggest that a sample proportion is an unbiased estimator of a population proportion?
For the entire population, assume the probability of having a boy is one half , the probability of having a girl is one half , and this is not affected by how many boys or girls have previously been born.

Jeremy Crilly is a 7-year-old boy who has just been diagnosed with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The provider prescribes methylphenidate as part of his treatment. Jeremy’s mother, Rita, asks, “I want to help him but sometimes, I just get so frustrated with his behavior.”
What is the underlying rationale for the use of methylphenidate?
How might the medication therapy affect Jeremy’s growth? What follow-up would be appropriate to monitor for this effect?
What suggestions can the nurse provide to Jeremy’s mother to help her cope with this disorder?

A boy shoves his stuffed toy zebra, which has mass m, down a frictionless chute, starting at a height D above the bottom of the chute and with an initial speed of v. The toy animal emerges horizontally from the bottom of the chute and continues sliding along a horizontal surface with coefficient of kinetic friction μ. At what distance d from the bottom of the chute does the toy zebra come to rest? Express your answer in terms of the given variables and g, the acceleration due to gravity.
I thought the answer was (0.5v^2+gh)/(mu x g) but it is not correct apparently

Ralph wants to quit his job and move to Hawaii on December 25, 2015. Once there, he anticipates that he will need to make annual withdrawals of 14500 dollars (starting on December 25, 2016) to supplement his income from working as a cabana boy, and he wants the money to last 10 years (i.e. he'll make 10 withdrawals total). His plan is to make annual deposits, starting on December 25, 2000 and ending on December 25, 2015, into an account paying 9.2 percent effective interest. How large should each deposit be for Ralph to realize his goal?

A board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon retired and established an inner-city clinic to provide free care for poor people with facial disfigurements. A young African American woman with diabetes mellitus arrived at his clinic and stated that she wanted a large birthmark removed from her face. The plastic surgeon advised the woman that, with her diabetes, she was not a good candidate for this procedure. He referred her to a psychologist to assist her with her distress over her birthmark. A week later, she came back to the clinic and brought her 10-year-old son with her. He had the same birthmark; she didn’t want him to grow up being taunted the way she had been as a child. The boy did not have diabetes and was a good candidate. However, all surgery has the possibility of scarring, which the physician told the mother. She gave informed consent and the surgeon provided the care for the little boy free of charge. After the surgery, the child had a small scar less than two millimeters in size. The mother sued the plastic surgeon. Discussion Questions 1. What are the facts of this case? 2. Was the plastic surgeon wrong to operate on this patient? 3. What ethical dilemmas does this case illustrate? 4. What principles of ethics are involved in this case? 5. How would you feel if you were the physician? 6. Do you think the mother really understood the risks? Give three possible motives for the woman’s behavior in this case. 7. What should the physician do?

Question
1). A modern art sculptor anchors 1 meter of a cast iron pole in
the ground and leaves 3 meters of the pole sticking out of the
ground at a 60° angle. The owner of the metal shop told him that
the pole is rated to withstand up to 9000 Nm of torque before it
bends. How massive can the bronze platypus be that the sculptor
will hang from the end without damaging the pole? (Ignore the mass
of the pole itself)
a. 450 kg
b. 300 kg
c. 600 kg
d. 30 kg. There’s no way you could make a bronze
platypus bigger than that.
2). If a ball is thrown directly upward, what is the
instantaneous acceleration of the ball when it reaches the highest
point of its trajectory?
a. No answer text provided.
b. 9.8 m/s^2
c. 0 m/s^2
d. it depends on air resistance
3). A boy standing on a pedestrian bridge 10 meters above the
walkway below sees his friend walking below and wants to throw a
water balloon at him. The boy angles his throw upward to get more
distance, giving the balloon a vertical component of its velocity
+10 m/s and horizontal component +10 m/s. Ignoring air resistance,
how far horizontally will the balloon travel before hitting the
pavement?
a. between 20 and 30 meters
b. between 40 and 50 meters
c. between 10 and 20 meters
d. between 30 and 40 meters

1. Steven, a 4-year-old boy, is seen in the pediatric office for a well-child exam. He is a healthy, active boy who attends extended-day preschool as his mother works long hours. His mother states she has some questions about Steven. She says she is concerned about Steven’s growth, his language skills, and disciplining him. Steven’s mother tells you that “he seems heavier than my other children did at his age.” Upon measuring Steven you note his height to be 38.5 inches (98 cm) and his weight to be 46 pounds (20.9 kg). His calculated BMI of 21.76 plots well above the 95th percentile for age. After further discussion with Steven’s mother, you determine that he has an excessive daily intake of fruit juice and whole milk, and eats numerous fast-food meals weekly.
Steven’s mother asks if there is something wrong with Steven because he stutters and says “um” a lot.
