A hypothesis test was conducted to compare the mean SAT-Verbal score of a sample of 10 students from one school to the known national norms. In the sample of 10 students, the mean was 555. In the population, SAT-Verbal scores are normed to have a mean of 500 and standard deviation of 100. The two-tailed single sample mean z test resulted in a test statistic of 1.739 and p value of 0.082. At the 0.05 alpha level, the results were not statistically significant.

In this assignment we will try to add tuples, lists, if statements and strings to our program. For example, you can ask for a user for a couple items, their name and age – and depending on their age, print out a predefined list. You could ask for some string input and decide to do something with the output. You could ask for three items, 1) age, 2) are you a male or female and 3) are your in school do you work, or both?
Do not concern yourself with the actual output, but depending on what a user gives you, you can print out different outputs, even a Tuple if you like.
Take a snapshot of your project, the source code and the result - was it successful, did you have any issues, did you make any mistakes and learn, etc.

Consider Chapter 7, the nature of production, and the law of diminishing returns. In that law, we see increasing returns at the start of production, after which production exhibits diminishing returns (increases slowly) until production reaches its peak. Then, production will exhibit negative returns if we attempt to push beyond that. Now, think about your work day - it could be a work day at your place of employment or a work day of school activities or a workday at home if you are a homemaker. Provide an example of how your work day exhibits increasing returns, diminishing returns and then negative returns. Be sure to explain how all these THREE different types of returns would happen. You may not conclude that you are somehow missing one of the three types of returns.

Over the past few years there has been a lot of media coverage on the cost of EpiPens.
EpiPens, a form of epinephrine is a front line drug for the treatment of anaphylaxis (Drugs, 2018).
The company that makes EpiPen, Mylan was the subject of much controversy and media attention. There were lawsuits filed against the company due to the high cost of EpiPens.
One brand name EpiPen that contains two auto-injectors cost an estimated $650-700 if bought with cash. This can be cost prohibitive for families who are underinsured or not insured. And if there is a need for an EpiPen for a child families were struggling since there was a need to have an EpiPen available at school and then there needs to be one at home.
CVS Pharmacy has a program that helps families with getting a lower cost EpiPen. What are your thoughts on this subject?
