An article in a journal reports that 34% of American fathers take no responsibility for child care. A researcher claims that the figure is higher for fathers in the town of Littleton. A sample of 234 fathers from Littleton yielded 96 who did not help with child care. Use the critical value method to test the researcher's claim at the 0.05 significance level. Does the article report need to be corrected?

Amanda J. is a forensic nurse who has been trained as a sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE). Amanda works part-time in the emergency room, where she occasionally examines victims of rape and sexual assault. Amanda also works part-time as a consultant for a local domestic-violence shelter for women and children.

In the year 2005, in Anytown, suppose that one person is willing to pay $1,000 for relief from hay fever; another two are willing to pay $350; about five more are willing to pay $50; one is willing to pay $40; one is willing to pay $35; one each is willing to pay $34, $32, $30, and $28; about a dozen are willing to pay $10; four are willing to pay $5; and half of the rest of the town (another 75 people) are willing to pay $1. a. Draw the demand curve for hay fever relief in Anytown. b. What is the potential total benefit (total of incremental value) from relief of hay fever if it is provided to everyone who asks? To everyone willing to pay $35 or more? c. If the price of hay fever medication is $20, what is the quantity demanded? What is the consumer surplus (total net value or benefit) for those who are willing and able to pay for the hey fever medication?

a. A tiny fishing village has 3 residents. Ann has a utility of 10, Bruce has a utility of 6, and Charlie has a utility of 7. If the mayor uses a Rawlsian social welfare function, the social welfare of this tiny village would be
b. A mountain village owns a common pasture where villagers graze their goats. The cost to a goat owner of owning and caring for a goat is 4 EUR. The pasture gets overgrazed if too many goats share the pasture. The total revenue from all goats on the common pasture is f (g) = 48g - 2g2, where g is the number of goats on the pasture. The town council notices that total profit from the pasture is not maximized if villagers are allowed to pasture goats for free. The council decides to allow a goat to use the common pasture only if its owner buys it a goat license. To maximize total profit (of villagers and council), how many EUR per goat should the council charge?

Clara Burke is an 88 year old retired nurse who fell at home and comes to the ER with hip pain and confusion. She lives alone in a two story home. Her son lives out of state and she has only a grand daughter living in the next town.
In the ER blood work is drawn, an x-ray of her hip is completed, an EKG is ordered and an IV is started.
What lab work might be ordered and why?
A urine sample would be ordered to find out if the patient had a urinary tract infection
What other specimens should they get?
Why was an x-ray done?
To see if the hip is broken
Why was an EKG done?
Why did they start an IV?
What would be your first assessments be of this patient? List in order of priority
1.
2.
3.
Now finish this patient’s story…
What are her risks for infection?
What nursing care can you institute to minimize risks?

a. What will the enrollment be in the year 2008?
b. In what year will the enrollment be 15,000?
2. The average price of a home in a certain town was $78,000 in 1990, but home prices have been falling by 4% per year. How much will the average home be worth in 2000?
3. Thermonuclear weapons use tritium, a radioactive form of hydrogen, for their nuclear reactions. Tritium decays at a rate of 5.613% per year. Safeway Labs stocks 300 pounds of Tritium.
a. How much Tritium will they have in 20 years?
b. In how many years will they have 100 pounds of Tritium?

Have you ever tried to get out of jury duty? About 25% of those called will find an excuse (work, poor health, travel out of town, etc.) to avoid jury duty.†
(a) If 11 people are called for jury duty, what is the
probability that all 11 will be available to serve on the jury?
(Round your answer to three decimal places.)
(b) If 11 people are called for jury duty, what is the probability
that 5 or more will not be available to serve on the jury?
(Round your answer to three decimal places.)
(c) Find the expected number of those available to serve on the
jury. What is the standard deviation? (Round your answers to two
decimal places.)
| μ = people |
| σ = people |
(d) How many people n must the jury commissioner contact
to be 95.9% sure of finding at least 12 people who are available to
serve? (Enter your answer as a whole number.)
