must make use of the LNCS referencing style required here:
https://www:springer:com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-
guidelines.
Look at the guidelines and the templates for reference examples. Failure to provide citations in LNCS style will result in mark forfeiture. You are also limited to use scientific material and books; websites like Wikipedia and StackOverflow are not considered a credible source.

In a study of smoking and its effects on sleep patterns, one variable is the time that it takes to fall asleep. A random sample of size 12 is drawn from the population of smokers; an independent sample of size 15 is drawn from the population of non-smokers. The mean time to sleep for smokers is 43.70 minutes; for non-smokers it is 30.32 minutes. The sample variance for the time to sleep for smokers is 286.549 min2 while for non-smokers it is 50.806 min2 .
Find a 95% confidence interval to determine if these data indicate that smokers tend to take longer to fall asleep than non-smokers. (Hint: Degrees of freedom formula yields df = 14.2)

Effects, Politics, and Regulatory Control of Tobacco Use Tobacco use is the primary cause of mortality in the United States today. Tobacco use is responsible for cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and heart disease and has caused the deaths of nearly half a million people per year. Tobacco control, prevention, and treatment are compelling and urgent public health issues.
The development of tobacco control laws have been passed by a number of states. Write a comprehensive overview of the health effects, politics, and regulatory control of tobacco use control efforts. Your paper should be based on the following points:
What are the factors (biological, environmental, economic, and political) that contribute to tobacco addiction?
What are the medical consequences (morbidity and mortality) for tobacco users?
What is the public health impact (epidemiological and economic) of tobacco use and secondhand smoke exposure?
How do tobacco control regulations relate to positive and normative economics?
How do tobacco control regulations impact individual health care What is the public health policy regarding tobacco control?
What is the role of the state and Federal Government in policy making? What is the history of regulatory tobacco control?
What is the current state of tobacco control in the United States (states that have passed tobacco control regulations)?
What is the evidence that tobacco control is effective?
Based on your understanding, create a 6- to 7-page Microsoft Word document that includes the answers to the above questions. You need a minimum of five scholarly sources that should be in APA format for both in-text citations and citations on the reference page. This assignment requires a title page, an abstract, an introduction, a body, a conclusion, and a reference page.

You have just completed your first week employed as assistant
executive manager in a 180-bed skilled nursing facility, named
Sanctuary Nursing Home. On your first day, the facility CEO gave
you a tour of the facility, introducing you to staff and residents.
Throughout the week, you have been observing and getting to know
your staff and residents.
As a new manager, you recognize a need to: 1) engage in an in-depth assessment of quality of care being provided at Sanctuary, and 2) develop a plan to proactively improve care quality and prevent citations or sanctions from external oversight entities. Question Do you think that the situation as described here at Sanctuary is typical of skilled nursing facilities, or do you think that nursing homes suffer from poor, inaccurate press based on a few isolated situations? |

(a) Does the empirical evidence suggest that it takes significantly longer on average to service customers than the 7 minutes anticipated by the design team? Construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of the average customer service delivery time at the Alhambra? Interpret the meaning of this interval in plain, non-technical language (no jargon). Ensure that your non-technical interpretation of these results clearly, concisely, yet comprehensively addresses the owner’s concerns.
(b) Write a brief business report communicating what your consulting team has attempted to do to the head of the Alhambra design team. Remember that the head of the design team does not understand statistical jargon. (One of her staff members does understand statistics and will be looking to ensure that you have conducted a good study, that you have performed a valid analysis of your data, and that your interpretation is appropriate for your study results.) Ensure that your report is thorough, comprehensive, clear, yet concise. Evaluation criteria: quality of writing, clarity, usefulness, comprehensiveness, accuracy, completeness, etc. Attach your typed business report to your assignment
