Monica has decided that she wants to build enough retirement wealth that, if invested at 10 percent per year, will provide her with $5,500 of monthly income for 25 years. To date, she has saved nothing, but she still has 30 years until she retires. How much money does she need to contribute per month to reach her goal

You wish to have $250,000 at the end of twenty years. In the last five years, you withdraw $1,000 annually at a rate of 3.8% compounded quarterly. During the middle ten years, you contribute $500 monthly at a rate of 2.8% compounded semi-annually. Given this information, determine the initial deposit that has to be made at the start of the first five years at a rate of 4% compounded monthly?

My Values: In this section you will write about your values, such as whether you follow individualistic or collective values or a combination of both. Explain some of these individualistic or collective values. Also in this section write about an issue that you are passionate about such as gender equality, climate change, education or any other issue that interests you and say what you can do to contribute positively to this issue.

Why did the British and the French fail during the 1930s in their efforts to keep Hitler in check? Why did the British and Americans decide to focus on defeating Germany during World War II?

How did the Marshall Plan contribute to the rebuilding of Western Europe’s economy and how did this rebuilding help bring the spread of Communism in Europe to a halt? How was NATO supposed to stop the spread of communism?

Researchers plan to study the weight gain of cows during a 3-month period. They wish to test at alpha = 0.01 if the mean weight gain exceeds 15 kg. Further, it is important for the researchers to detect if the mean weight gain is as large as 27 kg. An earlier study indicated that the standard deviation of the weight gains was around 14 kg. Since weight gains are normally distributed a t-test is to be used.

(a) If the researchers used a sample size of 22 what would be the power of the test in detecting if the mean weight gain is as large a 27 kg? Use R, showing the command you used and the result.

(b) Use Table 21 to determine the sample size required in order to have a power of 0.99 to detect if the mean weight gain is as large a 27 kg.

The collected data is from two 4th grade (All female classes - Age 10) Fitnessgram pacer tests. Once you have analyzed the data, please answer the following questions.

1. What was the mean, median, and mode for each class?

The postanesthesia care area (recovery room) at St. Luke’s Hospital in Maumee, Ohio, was recently enlarged. The hope was that the change would increase the mean number of patients served per day to more than 25. A random sample of 15 days revealed the following numbers of patients.

At the 0.01 significance level, can we conclude that the mean number of patients per day is more than 25?

1. The data represents the age and weight (in pounds) of 30 Langley residents.   Create a model to predict the expected weight of an individual based on their age. Maintain a minimum of 4 decimal places for intermediate calculations.   

a) What is the expected weight of an individual that is 27 years old?

b) How much variability in weight is accounted for by an individual’s age?  

c) How much variability in weight is accounted for by factors other than age?

d) Assume alpha is 0.05 Is an individual’s weight a significant predictor of an individual’s age? Provide the specific statistical evidence from your Excel output to support your answer.
