In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value by a small amount and therefore produce a slightly more "conservative" answer. Are America's top chief executive officers (CEOs) really worth all that money? One way to answer this question is to look at row B, the annual company percentage increase in revenue, versus row A, the CEO's annual percentage salary increase in that same company. Suppose a random sample of companies yielded the following data:
B: Percent increase for company 26,25,27, 18, 6, 4, 21, 37
A: Percent increase for CEO 25, 25, 22, 14, −4, 19, 15, 30

Can the italicized portion of the problem be explained? I understand up until the 0.015 moles of protonated acetic acid remained and I understand the HH portion of the problem after but I would like some clarity on how this number was concluded.
2. The following question has two parts.
a) What is the final pH of a solution obtained by mixing 250 ml of
0.3 M acetic acid with 300 ml
of 0.2 M KOH? (pKb of acetate = 9.24). (Show your work!)
Moles of acetic acid = 0.25 l X 0.3 M = 0.075
moles
Adding 0.3 l X 0.2 M = 0.06 moles of OH- to this solution will
convert 0.06 moles of acetic
acid to 0.06 moles of acetate, 0.015 moles of protonated acetic acid will remain. pKa = 14 - pKb = 14 - 9.24 = 4.76
pH = pKa + log [CH3CO2-][CH3CO2H]
= 4.76 + log 0.06 moles / 0.55 l 0.015 moles / 0.55 l
= 4.76 + log 0.06 moles0.015 moles
= 5.36
pH = 5.36

7.15 Channel equalization. We suppose that u1, . . . , um is a signal (time series) that is trans- mitted (for example by radio). A receiver receives the signal y = c ∗ u, where the n-vector c is called the channel impulse response. In most applications n is small, e.g., under 10, and m is much larger. An equalizer is a k-vector h that satisfies h∗c ≈ e1, the first unit vector of length n + k − 1. The receiver equalizes the received signal y by convolving it with the equalizer to obtain z = h ∗ y.
(a) How are z (the equalized received signal) and u (the original transmitted signal) related? Hint. Recall that h∗(c∗u) = (h∗c)∗u.
(b) Numerical example. Generate a signal u of length m = 50, with each entry a random value that is either −1 or +1. Plot u and y = c ∗ u, with c = (1,0.7,−0.3). Also plot the equalized signal z = h ∗ y, with
h = (0.9, −0.5, 0.5, −0.4, 0.3, −0.3, 0.2, −0.1).

For this portion of the lab, you will reuse the Python program
you wrote before.
That means you will open the lab you wrote in the previous
assignment and change it. You should NOT start from scratch. Also,
all the requirements/prohibitions from the previous lab MUST also
be included /omitted from this lab.
Redesign the solution so that some portions of the code are
repeated. In lab 4 you validated input to ensure that the user
entered inputs within certain values. If the user entered an
invalid value, the program terminated. Now you will add a loop such
that the user gets three chances to enter a valid value. If the
user enters an invalid value more than three times in a row, the
program should issue an error message and terminate.
The program I wrote before is shown below.
How can I apply the new requirements to reuse this program?
