Each person in the group will be responsible for rewriting the code to solve one   of the original   parts (Alphabetizing 5 words, pig latin, reversing letters, celebrity names), without using arrays   or loops. The purpose of this assignment is to practice Strings manipulation and String methods so full credit will only be given if you are utilizing the code for Strings (substring, charAt, compareTo, equals, etc). Within the group, you cannot work on the same program so only one person can submit pig latin, and one person can submit reversing letters, etc.

Remove your old code and replace it with this new code before testing the program again. Be sure to leave a comment indicating what you have changed.

(I'm only working on the pig latin option)

Practice Concluding a Hypothesis Test

For each of the scenarios below complete the following:

- Identify the null and alternative hypothesis.

- State if the results are statistically significant and why

- Conclude the hypothesis test in context

1. We are interested in answering the question: In Richmond Kentucky, are less than 75% of stray dogs spayed/neutered? A random sample of 150 stray dogs found that 70% were spayed/neutered. The test was performed at the 10% significance level and the resulting p-value was 0.051.

2. We are interested in answering the question: In Richmond Kentucky, is the proportion of stray dogs who are spayed/neutered less than the proportion of stray cats who are spayed/neutered? A random sample of 50 stray dogs found that 39% were spayed/neutered and a random sample of 45 cats found that 45% were spayed/neutered. The test was performed at the 5% significance level and the resulting p-value was 0.012.

3. We are interested in answering the question: Is the average price of Pepsi 2-Liter bottles in Kentucky less than 99 cents? A sample of 75 stores selling Pepsi 2-liters found an average price of 96 cents. The test was performed at the 1% significance level and the resulting p-value was 0.0065.

4. We are interested in answering the question: Is the average price of Pepsi 2-Liter bottles in Kentucky greater than the average price of Coke 2-liters in Kentucky? A random sample of 75 stores selling Pepsi was selected and a separate random sample of 55 stores selling Coke 2-liters found x pepsi - x coke cents. The test was performed at the 7% significance level and the resulting p-value was 0.092.

5. A researcher believes that if patients with arthritis go to physical therapy twice a week their pain levels will be lower than usual pain levels. Patients with arthritis usually rate their pain a 3.5 on an 8-point scale. The test was performed at the 10% significance level and the resulting p-value was 0.113.

6. The principal at Madison Central High school claims that the students at the school are above average intelligence. A random sample of thirty students IQ scores have a mean score of 112. On average the population IQ is 100. The test was performed at the 5% significance level and the resulting p-value was 0.07.

7. A neonatal nurse suspects that newborn babies are more likely to be boys than girls. A random sample found 13,173 boys were born among 25,468 newborn children. The test was performed at the 2% significance level and the resulting p-value was 0.0132.

1. What type of research design is used in this study (e.g., cross-sectional, longitudinal,

experimental, correlational, or naturalistic observation)? Is this

design appropriate?

2. What explanation do the researchers offer for their findings? Does this explanation

make sense based on the evidence?

3. Given the results of this study, why can’t the researchers draw a causal connection

between behavior disorders and temperament?

4. Can you think of an alternative explanation for the results of this study?

Critical Thinking Activity: Early Temperament Style and Later Adjustment Problems

Now that you have read and reviewed Chapter 7, take your learning a step further

by testing your critical thinking skills on this scientific reasoning exercise.

A study by Caspi and others (1995)* revealed that temperamental style in early

childhood might be linked to adjustment problems during adolescence. The study

involved a cohort of 1,037 children born between April 1, 1972, and March 31,

1973, in Dunedin, New Zealand.

At ages 3, 5, 7, and 9, the behavior of each child was rated in terms of 22

aspects of temperament, including emotional stability, restlessness, self-reliance,

persistence, negativism, passivity, shyness, self-confidence, emotional flatness,

and 13 other dimensions. To assess behavior problems in the sample, the

researchers relied on outcome data from teachers and parents who rated the children

at ages 9, 11, 13, and 15 on two widely used behavior problem checklists.

These checklists included subscales measuring anxiety/withdrawal, which represents

feelings of inferiority and failure; attention problems, which reflect difficulty

in concentration skills; conduct disorder, which reflects aggressiveness and

alienation; and socialized delinquency, which reflects norm-violating tendencies.

For both boys and girls, lack of control at ages 3 and 5 showed a significant

positive correlation wth teacher and parent reports of antisocial behavior and

conduct disorder at ages 9 and 11. In addition, boys and girls characterized as

lacking in control in early childhood were less likely to be rated in adolescence as

mature and confident.

The authors suggest several possible explanations for these intriguing results.

One is that certain temperamental characteristics in young children are actually

early, “subclinical” manifestations of more extreme behavior disorders. Whatever

the correct explanation, the results of this extensive study suggest that early temperament

may have remarkably specific predictive validity for the development of

behavior problems during adolescence.

October 15 - Sold 55 pairs to Casually Elegant Ltd at a unit price of $2,780

October 26 - Purchased 70 pairs at a cost of $2,400 each but these were subject to a trade discount of 5%.

November 10 - Sold 60 pairs to Best City Store which yielded total sales revenue of $192,000.

November 14 - Owing to an increased demand for this brand, the manager of Classique purchased 80 additional pairs of the “Aerosole” brand at a unit cost of $2,500, but additionally there was a freight charge of $100 on each pair.

November 24 - Sold 60 pairs of shoes to Big Buy Company at a price of $3,600 each.

November 30 - A physical stock count on that date revealed that there were 42 pairs of the “Aerosoles” brand in the warehouse.

Skyline Preparatory High for Girls is an elite prep school with 47 faculty and staff members on the payroll. Jamie Davis, a two-year English instructor, becomes pregnant. She is not married. She is a slim woman who is not showing visible signs of pregnancy and has not told the school administrators of her pregnancy. In her sixth month of pregnancy she develops pre-eclampsia, necessitating that she go on pregnancy leave immediately. Davis requests medical leave due to her pregnancy and applies for FMLA, believing that she is eligible (and because she desires to care for her baby after the baby is born). Skyline Prep's Headmaster, Doris Jones, tells Davis that she must resign because she would be setting a poor example for the students. Davis refuses, and now Doris Jones wants to terminate her.

Evaluate the actions of the school in this situation. In a positive and professional way, explain to Doris Jones what the school should do to prevent an adverse situation from occurring.?

As an attorney, what actions would you recommend that Doris Jones take to resolve this situation?

The ice rink is very crowded, and there are a lot of inexperienced people learning to ice skate there. Tara is originally skating at 4.5 m/s and collides with Sarah who is at rest. After the collision, they hang on to each other in an effort to not fall over. They are no longer watching where they are going and end up running into Millicent who was just standing there. Then they all hang on to each other to avoid falling over. They fall over after 1.5 seconds. How far did the three girls travel before falling over? Assume that all three girls have a mass of about 55 kg.

A high school physics teacher is looking for fun new ways to get his students excited about learning momentum. He decides to try the somewhat dangerous demonstration of sticking a firecracker in an empty soda can and lighting it. After he lights the firecracker, the soda can and firecracker will travel very quickly in opposite directions. The mass of an empty soda can is 13.68 g (according to the first result from Google), and the mass of a small firecracker is 45 g. The teacher estimates that the firecracker should have a speed of 35 m/s. How fast should he expect the soda can to travel? Is this demonstration a good idea?
