Capital punishment is a necessary form of justice and it doesn't do us well today. Despite the fact that by early 1975, thirty states had passed new death penalty laws the crime rate in the USA is still very high. According to data from the Death Penalty Center(2016); states without the Death Penalty have had consistently lower murder rates. EXPLAIN what the author is saying, what is the larger significance, what does it mean and why is it significant. Also, how would you transition to the next point in your argument?

1. In the purification, the pH of the PBS buffer was 6.5, and the two proteins have different isoelectric points (Haemoglobin pI: pI 6.8; Catalase: pI 5.4). What are the charge states of the two proteins at this pH? (e.g. positively charged, negatively charged or neutral)
2. Based on the charge states of the proteins, which protein has a higher affinity to the DEAE-Sepharose resin at pH 6.5?
3. Why was the salt concentration of PBS buffer increased (from 17.5 mM to 175 mM) in order to elute out the catalase protein?

INFERENCES ABOUT THE DIFFERENCES
ENGINEERS IN A LARGE CORPORATION ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE BONUS AMOUNT CLAIMING THAT THE AMOUNDS DECREASED COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS YEAR. A SAMPLE OF n = 9 ENGINEERS WAS SELECTED AT RANDOM AND THEIR BONUS AMOUNTS FOR TWO LAST YEARS (2015 AND 2016) WERE SUMMARIZED. THE SUMMARIES SHOW THAT: (X-BAR) = (SAMPLE MEAN FOR 2015) = 4,880 (Y-BAR) = (SAMPLE MEAN FOR 2016) = 4,140 AND S = (SAMPLE SD FOR DIFFERENCES) = 1,200
(A) AT THE 5% SIGNIFICANCE LEVEL, DO ENGINEERS HAVE SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE THAT THE POPULATION AVERAGE BONUS IN 2016 WAS LOWER THAN IN 2015?

A medical professional wants to know if there more children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in states that have larger urban areas over states that are mostly rural. So she sampled 8-year old children in two states: Pennsylvania and Utah. In the state of Pennsylvania, a fairly urban state, there are 245 eight year olds diagnosed with ASD out of 18,440 eight year olds evaluated. In the state of Utah, a fairly rural state, there are 45 eight year olds diagnosed with ASD out of 2,123 eight year olds evaluated. Set up and run a test of hypothesis to determine if there is enough evidence to show that the proportion of children diagnosed with ASD in Pennsylvania is more than the proportion in Utah? Use a level of significance of 1%. Specifically, do the following: (i) Write down the null and alternative hypotheses. (ii) Verify that the assumptions necessary to apply the test are satisfied. (iii) What is the test statistic and what is the p-value? (iv) State your conclusion
