Your parents have accumulated a $150,000 nest egg. They have been planning to use this money to pay college costs to be incurred by you and your sister, Courtney. However, Courtney has decided to forgo college and start a nail salon. Your parents are giving Courtney $18,000 to help her get started, and they have decided to take year-end vacations costing $12,000 per year for the next four years. Use 6 percent as the appropriate interest rate throughout this problem. Use Appendix A and Appendix D for an approximate answer, but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods.

a. How much money will your parents have at the end of four years to help you with graduate school, which you will start then? (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

b. You plan to work on a master’s and perhaps a PhD. If graduate school costs $22,500 per year, approximately how long will you be able to stay in school based on these funds? (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

In some states, high school students must pass a graduation test before they are able to receive their high school diplomas. Suppose the students are given up to three chances to pass the exam. If they pass it, they don't need to take it again. If they do not pass the test on the first try, they take it a second time. If they don't pass on the second try, they take it a third time. From past data, we know that 78% of students pass the test the first time, while 85% of students who take it a second time pass on the second try, and 60% of students who take it a third time pass on the third try.

a) What percent of students are not allowed to graduate because of their performance on the exam? Enter your answer as a percent, rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent

b) What percent of students take the test three times? Enter your answer as a percent, rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent

c) What percent of students pass a graduation test and receive their high school diplomas? Enter your answer as a percent, rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent.

(1 point) In 2002 the Supreme Court ruled that schools could require random drug tests of students participating in competitive after-school activities such as athletics. Does drug testing reduce use of illegal drugs? A study compared two similar high schools in Oregon. Wahtonka High School tested athletes at random and Warrenton High School did not. In a confidential survey, 4 of 131 athletes at Wahtonka and 20 of 114 athletes at Warrenton said they were using drugs. Regard these athletes as SRSs from the populations of athletes at similar schools with and without drug testing. (a) You should not use the large-sample confidence interval. Why not? (b) The plus four method adds two observations, a success and a failure, to each sample. What are the sample sizes and the numbers of drug users after you do this? Wahtonka sample size: Wahtonka drug users: Warrenton sample size: Warrenton drug users: (c) Give the plus four 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of athletes using drugs at schools with and without testing.

Your parents have accumulated a $160,000 nest egg. They have been planning to use this money to pay college costs to be incurred by you and your sister, Courtney. However, Courtney has decided to forgo college and start a nail salon. Your parents are giving Courtney $31,000 to help her get started, and they have decided to take year-end vacations costing $11,000 per year for the next four years. Use 9 percent as the appropriate interest rate throughout this problem. Use Appendix A and Appendix D for an approximate answer, but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods.

a. How much money will your parents have at the end of four years to help you with graduate school, which you will start then? (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

b. You plan to work on a master’s and perhaps a PhD. If graduate school costs $29,260 per year, approximately how long will you be able to stay in school based on these funds? (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Read the following Clinical Case:

Jason is 11 years old and has Type 1 Diabetes. He was diagnosed with Diabetes when he was 5 years old. He is comfortable taking his "blood sugar" readings during the day. He likes to participate in sports and is on the soccer team, which practices three times a week after school. His mother always packs his lunch for school so he does not have to worry about eating the food in the cafeteria.

For this written assignment plan a day's meal for Jason.

Include breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.

In particular, include any snacks he may need after school to maintain a balanced diet during soccer practice.

Also include a brief discussion about three issues/considerations regarding nutrition, diabetes, and children that nurses must be aware of.

You may use any of the resources found in this module or any other evidence-based sources (include those as in-text citations and references using APA Editorial Format).

Chapter 4 – Targeting

Reflect on the assigned readings for the week. Identify what you thought was the most important concept(s), method(s), term(s), and/or any other thing that you felt was worthy of your understanding.

Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:

1. This question gives you more market sizing practice (it’s a skill you’ll need). Using the logic from the chapter, try to estimate the possible market for the number of pairs of football pants a manufacturer could sell in your city. Hints:
   1. Go online and find the number of high schools in your city’s school districts. If you live in a large city, focus on only the largest school district.
   2. Assume that 90% of those high schools have both a varsity football team (with 40 players) and a junior varsity team (35).
   3. Assume also that each player gets 2 pairs of game pants (one in the dark school colors, and one in the light), and on average, 1.5 pairs of white pants for practice
