Summary:

       The country focus explains that ‘offshoring’ has become a trend for white collar job positions. The expectancy of globalization has become a problem because the loss of jobs on our home country. The idea of labor positions or better referred as ‘blue-collar’ positions where more popular and helped free trade because it helped countries with low-wages. The more high-skilled and wage worthy ‘white-collar’ where traditionally performed in the U.S but due to the slow economy these had to be transferred to countries such as India, and the Philippines. The company’s spokespersons explain that the cost of performance is cheaper and allows for profit to be generated for the company. The IT specialists and drafting positions have been replaced in these developing countries because they are paid twenty-dollar an hour while at our country it would cost a hundred (Hill, 2011). The companies that have taken the steps to this transition are Bank of America, Fluor, and Procter and Gamble proving that offshoring helps increase profit but also increases unemployment rates in the U.S.

In relation to alcohol addiction prevention, what is the prevention level of each of the group members? b. What levels of prevention would address their secondary conditions? c. Which primary prevention strategy is vital to the wellness of the group members? Why?

Medical professionals can find relationships between variables. The more you drink alcohol, the less functionality of your liver. The less carbohydrates a person intakes, the lower their Body Mass Index. Data can be collected and organized as an ordered pair (x, y). The data can be analyzed to determine the type and strength of a correlation and to calculate a regression line in order to make a prediction. Use the internet to find a data set of ordered pairs. Key terms to search: Free Public Data Sets and Medical Data Sets. Something that is current and in the United States of America, please ? Create a Post: Introduce your Data Set and Cite the Source. Which would be the independent variable, and which would be the dependent variable? Without drawing a scatter plot, would you expect a positive, negative or no correlation? Explain. Would you categorize your data to have a strong or weak correlation? Why? What would the r2 value tell you about the data that you selected? What is the equation of the regression line? Use the regression line to make a prediction about the data you collected.

Question: Environmental fate of medications Medications can enter wastewater management systems either thro... (1 bookmark) Environmental fate of medications Medications can enter wastewater management systems either through human excretions or through improper disposal. Many medications are not effectively treated by current wastewater management processes and therefore are discharged by wastewater treatment plants. Antidepressants are some of the most commonly prescribed medications in the United States, and many antidepressants are not effectively managed by wastewater treatment plants. a. A wastewater treatment plant discharges to Boulder Creek in Colorado at a rate of 64 million L/day, and the stream flow, upstream of the wastewater discharge point, is 1110 L/s. If the concentration of the antidepressant venlafaxine (Effexor) measured in the creek water is 10 ng/L, what is the mass discharged per day from the wastewater treatment plant, assuming that there are no sources other than the wastewater treatment plant, and assuming that the drug rapidly equilibrates among sediment, fish, and water? What is the concentration of the medication in the wastewater treatment plant effluent?
