n Ecological Engineering, the potential for floating aquatic plants to treat dairy manure wastewater was investigated. For one part of the study, 16 treated wastewater samples were randomly divided into two groups- a control algal was cultured in half the samples and the water hyacinth was cultured in the other half. The rate of increase in the amount of total phosphorus was measured in each water sample. The control algal had a sample mean of 0.036 with a standard deviation of 0.008 while the water hyacinth had a sample mean of 0.026 with a standard deviation of 0.006. Conduct a test to determine if there is a difference in mean rates of increase of total phosphorus for the two aquatic plants. Use alpha = 0.05.

1) What type of test should be conducted?

Scenario: When the U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development described poverty as “to a large extent... a state of mind,” this made his position about social services clear. Imagine that you have an opportunity to meet with him to discuss your views on poverty, its causes, and how poverty can be addressed in meaningful ways.

1. What are your views on poverty? Would you describe yourself as having a conservative, liberal, or developmental perspective? Why?

2. What would you like to tell others whose views differ from your own? What aspects of their perspectives do you disagree with? What evidence supports your views and refutes theirs?

3. Why are poverty and how to respond to it such contentious issues in the United States? How can the different views be reconciled so that poverty can be addressed in meaningful ways?

Let’s say that Major League Baseball has decided to put an expansion franchise in Portland, Oregon. Considering what you now know about branding, what would be a good nickname for that team? Why would that be a good nickname? Explain your choice using branding principles.

Use the ADAS model to explain the likely short run impacts on U.S. GDP and the aggregate price level. What do you anticipate to happen to U.S. consumption expenditures and U.S. employment? Explain your reasoning for each of your predictions and show graphically as appropriate.

Problem Statement A car dealer wants to use a software to display his or her cars’ information. As a software developer, you are going to develop a simple program for the dealer. You will have a Car class which has the following member variables: 

Car’s Brand 

Car’s Color 

Car’s MPG (Mile Per Gallon)

This class has setters and getter for all member variables. This class has four different constructors:

1. A constructor with no argument.

2. A constructor with only one argument which is brand

3. A constructor with only two arguments which are brand and color

4. A constructor with only three argument which are brand, color and MPG.

If the caller of the constructor does not give a value for a particular member variable, a default value should be assigned when a constructor is called: The default value for brand is Ford. The default value for color is Red. The default value for MPG is 30. This class (Car Class) has one public method named DisplayCarInformation().

When the method is called, it prints the car’s brand, color, and MPG values. In another class named CarTest, you will have a main() method. Within the main(), you need to create at least 4 car instances. You must call the four different constructors in your program. Since you have 4 or more Car objects, you MUST use ArrayList data structure to store them. For each object, you need to call its DisplayCarInformation() method which will print the brand, color, and MPG on the console and write to an actual file named carInfo.txt. Your output format should be easy to understand.

Sample Output “Ford, Red color, 30 mpg” “Chevy, Red color, 30 mpg” “Tesla, Green color, 30 mpg” “Toyota, Blue color, 28 mpg”

Input None Output Print cars’ information on console and to an actual file named carInfo.txt
