Researchers are interested in comparing the depression scores (measured on a scale of 1-100) of patients diagnosed with clinical depression before and after they have participated in a new exercise regimen. They take a random sample of 5 people who report low levels of exercise and measure their depression scores. They then have these 5 patients complete a 4-week exercise regimen and measure their depression scores after the 4 weeks. Results of analysis are presented in the table below.
| Participant ID | Depression score before the 4-week exercise regimen | Depression score before the 4-week depression exercise regimen |
| A | 78 | 69 |
| B | 87 | 82 |
| C | 57 | 56 |
| D | 62 | 63 |
| E | 74 | 72 |
Your research question of interest is:
Is there a difference in the mean depression score of patients before and after they participate in the 4- week exercise regimen?
You are informed the estimated standard error of the mean differences (s) is 1.74
You will use the information above to complete the question parts below for a two related samples t-test.
Part A: Which of the following represents the appropriate null hypothesis (H0), given this research question of interest?
Part B: Which of the following represents the appropriate alternative hypothesis (H1), given this research question of interest?
Part C: Which of the following represents the appropriate critical value(s), testing at an alpha level (α) of 0.05?
Part D: What is the t-statistic associated with your test? (rounded to the nearest hundredth) - see note above for the value of the standard error of the mean differences.
Part E: Given your test results, what is your decision about the null hypothesis?
Part F: The best interpretation of the appropriate decision regarding the null hypothesis would be: "Based on our study, we (Have/Have not)
enough evidence to conclude that there appears to be a difference in the population mean depression score before and after a 4 week exercise regimen."

Write a java program that calculates the total amount of money a person has made over the last year. The program will prompt the user for dollar amounts showing how much the user has made per job. Some users will have had more than one job, make sure your program allows for this. The program will print out the total made (all jobs) and will print out the federal and state taxes based on the total made. For this program, the federal tax will be 8.5% and the state tax will be 14.5%.
