Consumer Reports provided extensive testing and ratings for more than 100 HDTVs. An overall score, based primarily on picture quality, was developed for each model. In general, a higher overall score indicates better performance. The following (hypothetical) data show the price and overall score for the ten 42-inch plasma televisions (Consumer Report data slightly changed here): Brand Price (X) Score (Y) Dell 3800 50 Hisense 2800 45 Hitachi 2700 35 JVC 3000 40 LG 3500 45 Maxent 2000 28 Panasonic 4000 57 Phillips 3200 48 Proview 2000 22 Samsung 3000 30 Use the above data to develop and estimated regression equation. Compute Coefficient of Determination and correlation coefficient and show their relation. Interpret the explanatory power of the model. Estimate the overall score for a 42-inch plasma television with a price of $3600. Perform test of significance for slope coefficient.

write a java program that implements the splay tree data structure for the dictionary abstract data type.
Initially the program reads data from "in.dat", and establishes an ordinary binary search tree by inserting the data into the tree. The data file contains integers, one per line.
in.dat file contents:
3456
5678
1234
2369
7721
3354
1321
4946
3210
8765
Then the program starts an interactive mode. The commands are as follows.
S 1000 - splay the tree at 1000
F 2000 - search/find the node with key 2000
I 3000 - insert a node with key 3000
D 4000 - delete the node with key 4000
For each command,
1. Report appropriate message after the command is executed. Examples are:
Splay is done
Search is successful
Search is unsuccessful
The key is inserted into the tree
Duplicated keys
The key is deleted from the tree
The key is not in the tree
2. Display the new tree.

QUESTION 36
You would like to invest in one of the three available investment plans: money market, bonds, or stocks. The payoffs (profits) of each plan under two possible future economic conditions, PE (poor economy) and GE (good economy), are shown below. The probability of the occurrence of PE is 0.2.
PE GE
Money Market 1000 2000
Bonds 3000 2500
Stocks 2000 4500

Complete Critical Thinking Activity 2: Resolving Names of Internet Resources.
You have an Active Directory–integrated domain named. csmtech.local, with two DCs that are DNS servers. You also have an Internet presence with its own domain name, smpub.com, and a DNS server that's not part of an Active Directory domain. You want the DCs to be able to resolve the names of csmpub.com resources and to act as backup for the csmpub.com DNS database. What can you do to achieve these goals? Describe the steps you would take. Write a short report of your results

If I use Yahoo! Finance, will I be able to find out what they capital structures and levels of leverage for Uber and Lyft on there? If it is not through yahoo Finance would it be a formula used to find the capital structures and leverage for the companies, Uber and Lyft? What is the process of finding the capital structure for Lyft and Uber?
Original Question: Using the CapIQ database, review the capital structures and levels of leverage for both companies. Also, review income statements and balance sheets for the past three years to determine trends for both firms (common size financial statements will help you with this review).
