2. In some states, the use of marijuana is now legal, so a majority of the citizens evidently regard it as morally acceptable. In other states, however, the use of marijuana is illegal, so a majority of the citizens in those states evidently regard it as morally unacceptable. Furthermore, given that most states at this time disapprove of marijuana use, a majority of citizens in the country as whole likely regard it as morally unacceptable. The dilemma for those who say that moral questions are decided by the majority is that in this case, there are a number of majorities, and they disagree with one another. Make a decision regarding this dilemma. discuss if it is ethical or not.

For the qualitative data, choose one of the outcomes and find the sample proportion satisfying that outcome. Now construct a 95% Confidence Interval of the Population Proportion of people satisfying that outcome.
| Gender | Frequency |
| Male | 3 |
| Female | 36 |
| Both Genders 50/50 | 10 |
Data Description: So there were 49 states counted for and of that 49 there were 3 states where the male population was greater than the females and there were 36 states where the female population was greater than the males and lastly there were 10 states where both populations were equal.

a) Find the mean and median number of breweries for states east
of the Mississippi. Round the answers to at least one decimal
place.
(b) Find the mean and median number of breweries for states west of
the Mississippi. Round the answers to at least one decimal
place.
(c) The sample of western states happens to include California.
Remove California from the sample of western states, and compute
the mean and median for the remaining western states. Round the
answers to at least one decimal place.

Dell Computer has excelled with a fast-paced build-to-order approach that involves taking customer orders online, orchestrating production tailored to each customer, and forging a one-to-one relationship with the customer after the sale. Some auto industry executives have turned to Michael Dell, the company founder, for advice concerning how to make their businesses look like his. Senior executives at Ford, for example, envision a future where customers will order online and factories will build to order, eliminating billions of dollars of inventory costs (for example, large stocks of vehicles on hand). All of those mass-produced cars sitting for weeks on dealer lots represent a massive investment that yields no return until a buyer comes along. How would a build-to-order system alter the way in which suppliers (business marketers) would serve Ford as a customer?

Please answer to every single question!!!
Include all the information below about comparison between Hair textures (Afro-texture vs. East Asian): ?
What is the trait called colloquially and scientifically? What are the hallmarks or characteristics? ?
What mutation(s) causes the trait in your population of interest? Name of allele? Gene?
Type of mutation? ?
What are the differences in frequencies of your trait between the two populations, or, which alleles are characteristic of each population? ?
Are there aspects of this trait that could alter the fitness of the population?
Was the trait selected for or against?
What about the environment caused this selection? ?
Did migration, bottlenecking, or the founder effect play pivotal roles in the prevalence of your trait? ?
Were there any types of selective breeding that contributed to the difference in frequency between populations. ?
Is there evidence that interactions with other, pre-existing genes, played a role in the emergence or extinction of your trait within each population?

Beyond starting and running new businesses, entrepreneurs are change agents who transform innovation into reality. Apple Inc. is known as one of the world's most innovative companies, and it co-founder Steve jobs was credited with Apple's most important breakthrough innovations. Steve Jobs also founded Pixar, one of the most successful film studios of all time. He was clearly an entrepreneur extraordinaire, and created continuous innovation in his quest to create value through new products or services. Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk are also entrepreneurs that stand out as examples of successful entrepreneurs. Discuss the traits and behaviors of these entrepreneurs that might have contributed to the outstanding record of innovation in the companies they led. What are the major differences in how these individuals have approached entrepreneurship? How have those differences impacted the organizations they have founded?
