According to modern science, Earth is about 4.5 billion years old and written human history extends back about 10,000 years. Suppose the entire history of Earth is represented with a 10-meter-long timeline, with the birth of Earth on one end and today at the other end. a. What distance represents 1 billion years? b. How far from the end of the timeline does written human history begin?
A certain antihistamine is often prescribed for allergies. A typical dose for a 100-pound person is 19 mg every six hours. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. a. Following this dosage, how many 12.4 mg chewable tablets would be taken in a week? b. This antihistamine also comes in a liquid form with a concentration of 12.4 mg/8 mL. Following the prescribed dosage, how much liquid antihistamine should a 100-pound person take in a week?

The Human Toxome Project (HTP) is working to understand the scope of industrial pollution in the human body. Industrial chemicals may enter the body through pollution or as ingredients in consumer products.
In October 2008, the scientists at HTP tested core blood samples for 35 newborn infants in the United States. The cord blood of the "In utero/newborn" group was tested for 430 industrial compounds, pollutants, and other chemicals, including chemicals linked to brain and nervous system toxicity, immune system toxicity, and reproductive toxicity, and fertility problems. There are health concerns about the effects of some chemicals on the brain and nervous system. Upon calculation of the sample, the mean of the amount of the chemical found in the infant's blood is equal to with sample standard deviation equal to.
Construct the 90% confidence interval by
- Clearly explain what model was used and why
- Clearly show your process, if using calculator explain what you did.
- Explain the meaning of the 90% confidence interval in the context of the problem.

Scenario
In a meeting with members of Informational Systems operations area, you ask middle managers about the recent sub-par performance in the department and their thoughts about the reasons behind it. They state that their performance goals are set too high, with the vast majority of their employees missing their individual targets across the board.
In your education and training to be an organizational behavior consultant, you studied various needs-based motivational theories:
Your Task

Ethics is the process by which how human conduct on an everyday basis and laws is a process by which laws are obeyed in a minimum standard behavior. The difference between ethics and law is what a person should do or must do. Ethics is not written as the law, therefore, ethics are not followed like laws are. Both ethics and laws can intersect when deciding ethical principles and moral values. It guides and sets rules for society to do the right thing. Laws are applied to help establish positive conduct in people's lives. In order to live a good life, we apply morals and guidelines.
A relationship between law and ethics is that laws are made based on minimum standards of human behavior in which ethical behavior is applied. One example is following the law within a business by paying taxes because it is ethically the right thing to do and following the rules and regulations that the law establishes is also right.
