Probabilities are normally used in decision making under risk. You are involved in a decision making process that involves three decision alternatives and three states of nature. Discuss the methods you will use to assign probabilities to the states of nature. What conditions must be satisfied for the probabilities to exist and also how would you use the probabilities to make informed decisions? If you need to improve your decision making process for this problem, what would you have to do? And how would you be sure that this effort is worthwhile. After the discussion forum, develop a two-page report detailing your approach to this problem as stated. The report should be typed double-spaced.

•Earlier this year you might have seen in the news that Mississippi (among other states) signed into law a bill that protects businesses and religious groups from punishment if they deny services (wedding planning, counseling, baking a cake, adoption support, etc) to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people when providing those services conflicts with the individual’s sincerely held religious beliefs or convictions.

•Should states be able to pass such laws? Should businesses be able to deny services to GLBT on the basis of religious convictions? Why or why not?

•If you choose to answer this, try to keep the discussion focused on Constitutionality and legality rather than ambiguous terms like "right" and "wrong".

1. Should We Get Rid of the Electoral College?

2. Why did the founders create the Electoral College system? Is it still a fair way of choosing a president?

3. So let’s say we amend the Constitution and finally get rid of the Electoral College, and go with “whoever gets the most votes wins.” How would this change presidential elections? What would happen if NO candidate received over 50% of the vote?

4. How would eliminating the Electoral College affect the small (or low population) states? How would it affect the large (or large population) states?

(please answer all questions in a 5 sentence paragraph)

The enthalpy change under standard conditions for which of the reactions below would be equal to the ∆H°f of NaOH(s)? (A) Na(s) + H2O(l)  NaOH(s) + 1/2 H2(g) (B) Na(s) + 1/2 O2(g) + 1/2 H2(g)  NaOH(s) (C) Na(s) + 1/2 H2O2(l)  NaOH(s) (D) Na+(aq) + OH–(aq)  NaOH(s) please explain why you chose that answer and why the other answers are wrong. If it has to do with them being in their standard states, how do I know what the standard states of the elements are.

Refer below table on the average prices, how to make a decision on KL or Penang residential prices are higher than other Peninsular states? Explain in detail.

Glow Bright Co. manufactures light bulbs. Glow Bright's purchasing policy requires that the purchasing agents place each quarter's purchasing requirements out for bid. This is because the Purchasing Department is evaluated solely by its ability to get the lowest purchase prices. The lowest cost bidder receives the order for the next quarter (90 working days).

To make its bulb products, Glow Bright requires 61,200 pounds of glass per quarter. Glow Bright received two glass bids for the third quarter, as follows:

• Mid-States Glass Company: $25.00 per pound of glass. Delivery schedule: 61,200 (680 lbs. x 90 days) pounds at the beginning of July to last for 3 months.
• Akron Glass Company: $25.15 per pound of glass. Delivery schedule: 680 pounds per working day (90 days in the quarter).

Glow Bright accepted Mid-States Glass Company's bid because it was the low-cost bid.

1. All of the following are ways in which Glow Bright could develop long-term partnerships with its suppliers except:

1. share research and development efforts.
2. ignore internal costs caused by delivery delays while contracting on the best price point basis.
3. share production schedules.
4. establish electronic data interchange.
5. establish supplier raw materials logistical support.

2. Hidden costs beyond the price of Mid-States Glass Company's bid include all of the following except:

3. Considering just inventory financing costs, what is the additional cost per pound of Mid-States Glass Company's bid if the annual cost of money is 8%? Round to the nearest cent.
$ per lb.

Your assignment is to analyze the relationship between two sets of scores using the inferential statistical procedure of an independent two sample t-hypothesis test. Using StatCrunch SPSS, you must calculate and analyze both descriptive and inferential statistics data. The data collection in analysis for this final project is aligned with concepts learned during several weeks of this course.

The data you are being provided with relates to information collected pertaining to the current COVID-19 pandemic. You are being asked to analyze this “case” data derived from 3 states California, New York, and Washington state, each row within the states represent confirmed cases by 9 (n=9) counties. The data from each state identifies the actual number of confirmed COVID-19 cases as of late April 2020, your role as a behavioral research assistant is to analyze the data from your choice of only two of these states (choose and compare CA: to either NY or WA state) and demonstrate whether or not there is a statistical difference in the number of identified cases between your choice of two states. Critical elements or parts of this final project include knowledge of; descriptive statistics, the statistical cycle of inquiry (inferential set up), and inferential statistics.
