You have an economics test in two weeks. It will cover both micro- and macroeconomics. Each part will be worth 50 points. You have a total of 100 hours that you can spend studying for this exam. For the first 15.0 hours you spend studying microeconomics, you will get one point more for each additional hour of studying. After that, you will get one point more for each three hours you spend studying, up to the maximum possible of 50 points. Macroeconomics is different. For your first 20.0 hours of studying you will get one point for each 45 minutes you spend studying. After that, you will get one point for each 1.5 hours you spend up to the maximum of 50 points. How many hours in total should you spend studying macroeconomics? No units, no rounding.

Gerald is a CEO in Brainies Consulting, Inc. His income in the first year is m1 = $200 and in the second m2 = $200. Assume that the interest rate is r = 100%. His time horizon is limited to these two years.
(a) Find PV and FV of Gerald’s income
(b) Show on the graph (C1; C2) Gerald’s budget set. Mark PV, FV, and the slope of his budget line.
(c) Explain what borrowing/lending strategy gives Gerald each of the two “extreme” consumption points. How much does he borrow/lend in the first period, how much does he pay back/receive in the second period?
(d) Suppose his utility function is:
U(C1; C2) = ln(C1) + ln(C2)
Find Gerard’s optimal choice analytically and show it on the graph. Does the optimal consumption involve saving or borrowing?

Scenario:
You are the director of quality in a 100-bed hospital. The organization has identified three clinical improvement opportunities: reduce surgical site infections, reduce patient falls, and improve compliance with congestive heart failure clinical guidelines.
For this assignment, select one of these clinical improvement opportunities. Your task, as sponsor and team facilitator, is to develop a robust team charter (see exhibit 7.2 in our textbook).
First, research the opportunity you selected to understand how progressive organizations have addressed the challenge.
Next, determine and justify the size of the team and identify the specific positions (to include physicians) that you would include as members. Describe the role of each member.
Then, craft a robust problem statement and team charter.
Finally, create a draft agenda and Gantt chart or timeline (select just one) for the first meeting of the team.

Jacco Macacco was a monkey that used to fight dogs in London 1820 years ago. Assuming he a 65% probability of winning his matches, answer the following:
a) what are the chances he could win 14 matches in a row before his first loss?
b) winning exactly 10 out of his first 14 matches (assuming he did not die in the ones he lost)
c) say that recorded 10,000 monkey vs dog fights. What is the probability that between 6,000 and 7,000 of the fights had monkey winners?
d) say each monkey weighted in at 10lbs with a standard deviation of 2lbs. If you weighed 100 monkey’s, what would the standard deviation of the total be? What about the standard deviation of the average? How many monkey’s would you need to weight to have a 68% chance of the average weight be between 9.5lbs and 10.5lbs?

Though the develoment of railroads began in the first half of the 189th century, their true impact was not experienced until the Gilded Age. Railroads broke down many barriers withtin the country. Physically, people and products could travel year-round further and faster. Before people rarely travel more than 100 miles from the place they were born. Culturally, ideas and differing people would influence the country. This is the first time that a truly American culture began to develop instead of just regional identities. Lastly, business opportunities expanded and a national market was developed. Now goods produced in one area of the country could easily be transportd to another without the need of a water route.
Railroads became the model for all the big businesses that followed. What was that model and give two examples how other businesses adopted it?

Let’s represent 61 students sitting in a row as a simple string, 61 characters long. Students not wearing a mask are represented by the space character. Students wearing a mask are represented by an asterisk (*). On the first day, only one student, sitting in the middle of the row is wearing a mask. Our initial string looks like this: " * " Students will decide whether to wear a mask the next day according to the following rule: If a student is sitting next to exactly one student wearing a mask (on the left or the right) then they will wear a mask to the next class. Otherwise they won’t wear a mask the next day. How does the mask-wearing behavior change over time. Generate the subsequent strings for 100 subsequent classes. Embed your output inside your code as a triple-quoted string. Here are the first few classes: " * " " * * " " * * " " * * * * " (should look like a pyramid with space in middle of third row)

PLEASE WRITE IN PYTHON A sequence of integers is said to be Fibonacci-like if each element of the sequence (except the first two elements) is the sum of the previous two integers in the sequence. For example, the sequence 10, 14, 24, 38, 62, 100, 162, 262 is Fibonacci-like. Note that the first two integers in the above sequence are arbitrary. Each of the remaining integers is the sum of the two integers just before it in the sequence. For example, 24 = 10 + 14, 38 = 14 + 24, 62 = 24 + 38, and so on. Your program must query ‘‘Enter the sequence.’’. The user will input integers separated by a ’,’. There could be arbitrary amount of blank space between two successive numbers. Your program must read in the user input and determine if the sequence is Fibonacci-like or not by outputting respectively, ‘‘The sequence is Fibonacci-like.’’ or ‘‘The sequence is NOT Fibonacci-like.’’
