If you are given that y = f(x, v, w) = 2x -3 w + 5v; if you are also told the values of w = 5 and v = 10

a) Find an expression for f(x) = y in terms of x (i.e. plug in for w and v and reduce the equation

b) Plot your solution to the right

c) If you are told that x changes from 4 to 6, illustrate and explain what happens in your graph above.

d) If you are told that w changes from 5 to 2, how does this change what you solved/plotted? Show graphically and explain. Hint: Go back to your original equation and plug in w = 2 and v =2 and plot the line. What happened?

A company produces “52-gram” snack pack of candies. A random sample of 10 snack packs yielded the following weights:

55.95 56.54 57.58 55.13 57.48 56.06 59.93 58.30 52.57 58.46

a) Calculate and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the true mean weight of snack packs produced by the company.

b) [MINITAB]Whenfindingtheconfidenceintervalina),what assumption did you make about the population of snack pack weights? Use the appropriate Minitab plot to verify the assumption for this dataset. Include the plot, explain how you use it, and your conclusion.

c) The company would consider changes in the production process if the true average weight of snack packs is below the claimed 52 grams. Should they introduce changes in the production process? Explain.

5-1 Discussion: Sentencing and "Reasonableness" 

 

Previous Next 

After reading about the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984 and the subsequent adjustments ordered by the Supreme Court, consider how these changes impact an individual judge's view of a "reasonable sentence." Then, in a post to the discussion board, answer these questions:
Describe how you would tell a "reasonable" sentence from an unreasonable one—what are the hallmarks of a reasonable sentence?
How does a forensic psychologist's sentencing evaluation affect what would be considered a "reasonable sentence"?
After reading about the changes to the Sentencing Reform Act, do you agree with the Supreme Court decisions to grant more discretion to federal judges? Why or why not?

In your answer you should explain what has happened to prices of the good you have chosen over the time period stated. You should consider the role of supply and demand and provide a diagramatic explanation, using supply and demand curves for the changes in the prices of the good, you should refer to the elasticity of supply and demand of the good, the market structure of the good and specifically if there are any cartels/price fixing activities in the industry effecting the price changes discussed. You should use these relevant theories in your answer but you should also refer to data where relevant too.

Answer this question in a 1-2 paragraphs

The experiment that was performed was size exclusion chromatography. it involved:

- sephadex G75 (separates up to 80,000 g/mol)
- buffer: 20mM sodium Phosphate @ ph 7.0
- three compounds that were separated
1.) blue dextron (2,000,000 g/mol) blue
2.) cytochrome C (~12,000 g/mol) orange
3.) potassium chromate (194.2 g/mol) yellow

1 eluded first followed by 2 and then 3 as expected.

••• Come up with a creative, some sort of experiment that can possibly be performed to consolidate or build on the experiment already performed. “We are not looking for changes for the current experiment, this would be considered minor/ trivial changes and will lead to only 1 point”.

How does blood pressure respond when an individual moves from a supine to a standing position?...

  1. How does blood pressure respond when an individual moves from a supine to a standing position? What causes this response? What is the name of this phenomenon?
  2. Describe the typical systolic and diastolic blood pressure responses to exercise of increasing intensity.
  3. Describe the four general indications for stopping an exercise test.
  4. Explain the typical changes in blood pressure and cardiac output following intense exercise. Why do these changes make it necessary to perform a cooldown period after intense exercise?
  5. Describe the reasons that blood pressure increases dramatically during isometric muscle contractions.
  6. What factors can influence blood pressure readings? How can we control the environment to help ensure that our blood pressure readings are accurate?

Questions 13 – 16 refer to the following:
The ages of a sample of eight commercial planes which an airline uses at O’Hare Field are:
15, 18, 22, 3, 15, 21, 12, 14

14. If one of the planes from the sample is selected at random, what is the probability that its age will be less than the mode?

15. The shift changes after 5 more of these planes listed depart. How many different departure orderings are possible among these planes before the shift changes?

16.The average cost to service a plane yearly is equal to $5,000*T + $60,000, where T is the age of the plane. What is the average cost per year to service a plane in this fleet?
