Use the data in the following table for the next seven questions. Note that "%∆" is shorthand for "percentage change." If the answer is a percentage, please just enter the number. Thus, say an answer of yours is 3.5%, then below you would enter "3.5" (without the quotes) in the box below. Be careful not to include the percent symbol. Also, please use just one decimal place.

Q1: Is the rate of inflation for consumers from 2019 to 2020 correct? Yes or NO

What was the rate of economic growth from 2019 to 2020? (As in the directions above, just enter the percent number, such as 3.5 for 3.5%).

What was the inflation rate for the entire economy from 2019 to 2020?

Q2: What was the real interest rate for a consumer purchasing a house in 2020? They'll be taking out a home loan, often called a mortgage.

Please convert the nominal price for an apple from 1990 to the prices of 2020. Assume that a consumer purchases it.

What was the percentage change in the real price of apples from 2019 to 2020 for consumers?

Deflate the nominal price of apples from 2020 for consumers (that is, convert the 2020 nominal price to the base year of the CPI). Please use two decimal place for this answer.

An amusement park studied methods for decreasing the waiting time (minutes) for rides by loading and unloading riders more efficiently. Two alternative loading/ unloading methods have been proposed. To account for potential differences due to the type of ride and the possible interaction between the method of loading and unloading and the type of ride, a factorial experiment was designed. Use the following data to test for any significant effect due to the loading and unloading method, the type of ride, and interaction. Use α = .05. Use both p-Value and Critical-Value approaches.

Chapter 7, Section 2, Exercise 032

Find the expected count and the contribution to the chi-square statistic for the (B,E) cell in the two-way table below.

Round your answer for the expected count to one decimal place, and your answer for the contribution to the chi-square statistic to three decimal places.

Expected count =

contribution to the chi-square statistic =

a) A thick steel plate of total area 840 cm² (both sides) is exposed to air near the ocean. After 1 year it was found to have lost 502 g in weight due to corrosion. What is the rate corrosion, or corrosion penetration rate CPR, for the material in this environment? Density of steel = 7.9 g/cm3                               [8 marks]

b) What type of corrosion is this? [2 marks]

c) Provide two strategies (there are more than two of course, but just choose two) for dealing with this type of corrosion [2 marks]

d Briefly summarise the pros and cons of each strategy as they might apply to a children’s playground at a seaside beach front [8 marks].

1. Make a Console App (.NET Core) in Visual Studio and name it as A1YourFirstnameLastname.

2. Implement a vehicle rental management system which is capable of doing the following: • View all, available and reserved vehicles. • Reserve vehicle or cancel a reservation.

3. The application must be menu-based app: 1 - View all vehicles 2 - View available vehicles 3 - View reserved vehicles 4 - Reserve a vehicle 5 - Cancel reservation 6 - Exit

4. NOTE: At no point should the application save any information to disk. All information is stored and managed in memory using a collection. The use of collections and the object-oriented design of the solution are an important part of the evaluation of your submission.

5. The rental company has inventory of cars and motorcycles.

• There are three categories of cars: Hatchback, Sedan, SUV

• And three categories of motorcycles: Cruiser, Sports, Dirt

• There are two types of cars: oStandard – a normal car oExotic – expensive sports car

• And two types of motorcycles: oBike – a standard two-wheeler motorcycle oTrike – a three-wheeler motorcycle

6. Create classes to represent Car and Motorcycle.

7. These classes must inherit from parent class Vehicle.

8. These vehicles must have following fields: ID, Name, Rental Price, Category, Type, IsReserved

9. Use your Java and object-oriented programming knowledge to create this hierarchy.

10. The application should keep track of available and reserved vehicles using the most appropriate generic collection.

11. Use LINQ to display all, available and reserved vehicles.

12. Your knowledge of object-oriented programming will play an important role in evaluation. • You will get higher grades if: Proper use of inheritance Interface is user-friendly

Used LINQ to display vehicles

App menu runs smoothly without crashing

Otherwise, there will be grade deductions.

13. The menu should run continuously until the user quits the application.
