For this assignment you must research and explain in detail the different methods

How to hire people

It is recommended that you research different training companies to develop an outline and complete an analysis of the steps which need to be taken. As you know it is important that you use several different methods to teach one of the topics because people learn in different ways. Be creative. Introduction – 5 marks Detail of training methods used – 30 marks Conclusion – 5 marks This assignment must be typed, double spaced, 12 size fonts. You must also include a proper title page and bibliography. Report is to be a minimum of 8 pages. Title page, works cited and pictures are not included in the 8 pages.

Read the case study and addressing the following:

Part 1, Sections 1-2: Provide calculations and a solution for total variable costs, break even in sales volume (number of members), break even in sales (in dollars), and margin of safety.

Case Study:

n addition to regular gyms, nontraditional workout concepts and centers such as Kosama are increasing in popularity. Kosama is a franchise opportunity that offers members the opportunity to improve their health and fitness level. To learn more about the company visit kosama.com.

Part 1, Section 1: Assume the following revenue and cost break-down.

Revenue:  

-Monthly membership fee = $30.

Costs:

-General fixed operating expenses = $4,100 per month.

-Equipment Lease = $395 per month.

-Mixed costs are equal to $275 per/month (fixed) plus $1.10 per membership sale (variable).

-Total variable costs are not known.  

-Estimated number of members required to break even is 330 members per month.  

Using the information provided estimate the amount of variable costs. When performing your analysis, assume that the only fixed costs are the estimated monthly operating expenses, equipment lease and the fixed part of mixed costs. Show your work and all calculations.

Part 1, Section 2: Using the information from section 1. What would monthly sales in members and dollars have to be to achieve a target net income of $13,750 for the month? What is the margin of safety in dollars? Show your work and all calculations.

Biology Unit II Homework - Cancer and Genetics

Introduction

In order for organisms to grow, repair, maintain, and reproduce, cells undergo cell division. Sometimes, cells uncontrollably divide, resulting in cancer. In the first part of the Cancer and Cell Division Lab, you will learn about normal cell division and will compare it to cell division that occurs in cancer cells. You will then visit a website to find out more information about cancer. You will learn why it occurs, why it kills, and new treatments that are being tested and used to treat cancer.

Objectives

Explain the process of cancer, the effects on the human body, the various types, and the risk factors involved.

Explain various treatments for cancer.

Explain the various stages of mitosis.

Materials

No extra materials will be required to complete this lab other than internet service.

Continue following the directions under the PROCEDURE section, and complete the following table. Total: 40 points

Continue following the directions under the PROCEDURES section and answer the following questions. Total: 12 points

Based on your data and observations, what are some of the differences between normal cells and cancer cells? (4 points)

Which type of cancer shows the most aggressive growth? Explain your answer. (4 points)

When studying cell division in tissue samples, scientists often calculate a mitotic index, which is the ratio of dividing cells to the total number of cells in the sample. Scientists often calculate the mitotic index to compare the growth rates of different types of tissue. Which type of tissue would have a higher mitotic index, normal tissue or cancerous tissue? Explain. (4 points)

Go to: http://www.cancer.org/

Click Cancer A-Z. At the page that follows there will be links to more information on breast cancer, colon and rectal cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer and skin cancer. Review the information for each these cancers. Next, write an essay that discusses either your own risk factors for each type of cancer and steps you might take to decrease those risk factors. As always, you do not have to disclose any actual personal information if you do not wish to. You may create a fictional character and discuss his or her risk factors instead. (30 points)

Your response should be at least 100 words in length.

STAT_14_1

In the pitcher are balls of different colors.
The probability of accidentally taking a red-ball out of the pitcher is p: (0<p<1).

A. Remove from the pitcher, incidentally and with the possibility of return, six balls.
The probability that exactly one red ball came out is four times greater than the probability that no red balls came out at all.

1. Find the p value.
2. What is the probability that only the first, third, and fifth balls will be red?

B. Now they decided to take balls out of the pitcher, accidentally and with the possibility of return, until the first red ball came out

1. What is the probability of getting exactly five balls out of the pitcher?
2. What is the expectation of the number of non-red balls coming out of the pitcher?

C. Yoav decided to take balls out of the jug, accidentally and with the option of returning, until he removed 4 red balls (not necessarily in succession).
What is the probability that he will get exactly 9 balls?

What is your opinion of the U.S. Department of State and its role or mission across the world?

For the question below, state what your null and alternative hypotheses are and select the appropriate test. Assess assumptions and do whatever needs to be done depending on your results (ie, doing a transformation of data or selecting a non-parametric if data violate assumptions). If you decide to run a Kruskal-Wallis test, you can assume the data satisfy those assumptions. Recall that it is generally considered ok to violate one assumption, especially if sample size is not too small. Perform the test and report the p value with the biological interpretation of your data. Finally, make a plot of the data that DOES NOT have a title, but does have proper x and y axis labels (can do it in excel or SPSS).

You find 24 people diagnosed with depression. You randomly assign them to three groups: control, 20 minutes per day of jogging, 60 minutes per day jogging. After a pre-determined time period, you ask them to rank their depression level from 1 to 10, with 1 being very depressed and 10 being not depressed. You collect the following data:
