Discuss some of the main ideas and theories that expanded the body of knowledge on Trade Theory over the period 1920 to 1995.

Study the data in the table below and answer questions. The two regions are the two provinces of a small country

(a) What is the national Income for 1999?

1. It has been suggested that global warming may increase the frequency of hurricanes. The table given below shows the number of major Atlantic hurricanes recorded annually before and after 1990.

Does this data is sufficient enough to claim that the number of annual hurricanes increased since 1995? Do the test at 8% significance level. To do the test, answer the following: a. Write down the null and alternative hypotheses. b. Get the excel output and answer the following: i. Fill the cell with the p-value of the test with green color ii. Fill the cell with the test statistic of the test with yellow color

Using the demographic information in the table below, consider the following scenario: A teacher chooses a student to dim the lights and a student to shut the door. If a student may do both jobs, determine the following probabilities.

a. P(Both are girls)

b. P(one is a girl and one is a boy)

c. P(at least one is a boy)

       i. Find the probability using cases

      ii. Next, calculate the probability using the complement rule.

d. P (The door closer is a boy)

e. P(neither are seniors)

e. Neither are seniors?

f. Neither are education majors?

A boy standing on the ground close to a building throws a ball vertically upward. From his measurements of the maximum height, y-max, to which the ball rises and the time required to reach this height, the boy calculates that the average velocity of the ball on its way up is 20 m/s. Five seconds after leaving the boys hand, the ball is caught by a girl who has stretched her arm out of a window some distance above the boy. You may use -9.8 m/s^2 for the value of g.

a. What is the velocity of the ball immediately after its release?

b. How high does the ball rise; i.e., what is the value of y-max?

c. At what height, y, above the point of release is the ball caught?

d. What is the velocity of the ball immediately before being caught

At an angle of 36.5deg with the horizontal, a ladder, with mass (m = 100.0 kg) rests on a frictionless wall and on the ground with a friction coefficient (μS).

a) What is the minimum value of the ladder-ground static friction coefficient if the ladder’s center of mass is located at a distance, 1/3 of its total length?

b) A boy, with mass (m = 45.0 kg), uses the ladder to retrieve a bag of 5 basketballs, each with mass (m = 0.625kg), that rests on the top of the wall. If the boy must return safely to the ground, what is the new static friction coefficient required?

c) What is the %DIFF in static friction coefficients between parts a) and b)?

d) What is the %DIFF in the magnitude of the force delivered by the wall between parts a) and b)?

e) If the boy travels at a constant velocity during his round trip travel to retrieve the ball, what is the total work done by gravity?

Toy Story Factory hires six workers to produce toys in the three divisions: “Toddle Toy”, “Girl Toy” and “Boy Toy”. The major decision is the allocation of the workers among the three divisions, so as to maximize the amount of toy produced. The following table shows the amount (unit) of toys that will be produced in a division as a function of the number of workers deployed in the corresponding division. For instance, when 2 workers are sent to the Boy Toy division, a total of 66 units of toy will be produced there.

If the factory wants to maximize the amount of toy produced, the maximum output will be [Answer] units of toys in total. (Integer, please.)

If you have downloaded the source code from this book's companion web site, you will find the following files in the Chapter 07 folder: • GirlNames.txt--This file contains a list of the 200 most popular names given to girls born in the United States from the year 2000 through 2009. • BoyNames.txt--This file contains a list of the 200 most popular names given to boys born in the United States from the year 2000 through 2009. Write a program that reads the contents of the two files into two separate lists, allows a user to input either a girl's name, a boy's name, or both, then tells the user whether the name(s) was/were popular between 2000 and 2009. First, the program should prompt the user to choose a girl's name, a boy's name, or both by entering either 'girl', 'boy', or 'both.' Once they have chosen, they should be able to input a name. If the name was a popular name, like Jacob or Sophia, the program should print "Jacob was a popular boy's name between 2000 and 2009." or "Sophia was a popular girl's name between 2000 and 2009." If the name was not a popular name, like Voldemort, the program should print "Voldemort was not a popular boy's name between 2000 and 2009." If the user chooses to input both a girl and boy's name, ask for the boy's name, then the girl's name, and print two statements in the form mentioned above on two separate lines, with the statement about the boy's name coming first. For example, if the user inputs Voldemort and then Sophia, print: Voldemort was not a popular boy's name between 2000 and 2009. Sophia was a popular girl's name between 2000 and 2009.

My code is working perfectly on boy and girl but it only reads that a name was not popular for boy and girl when running both.

3. What did Alex learn about managing his plant from the dice and match stick game the Boy Scouts played?

1. Forum Discussion: Select ONE of the following prompts and write a 200-250 word essay.

A. Graphic Design
Graphic Design is an ever-growing occupation. All businesses use graphic designers, whether "in-house" or subcontractors from firms specializing in the industry. Business cards, logos, letterheads, etc. are used on a daily basis to communicate with others and advertise business. Look at some of the products around you--soap, beverages, fast food items, clothing. Each has a specific logo that you recognize. Pepsi has a circular object that vaguely resembles a yin/yang symbol. White Castle burgers are small and square with a castle as their logo.

Observe the items you consume each day. When you purchase the items how do you identify them in a store? What if the label had been changed, would you still recognize it?

Over time, most logos have changed; however, the changes have been so gradual you probably didn't notice. Select one product and write a 200-250 word essay about the history of its logo. How has it changed throughout time? Has the packaging also changed? How did the changes meet the needs of consumers? Did the newer designs appeal to consumers? Be sure to include images of the logo as it changed, and identify your sources.
