You are a software development employee at a startup company. Your HR department has tasked the IT department with developing a simple application (Windows Form Application) to load and display employee records.

Your application will need to do the following:

Create an Employee Class with the following properties:

First Name

Last Name

Street Address

City

State

Zip

Create a sub class for Managers which inherits from the Employee Class. The Manager class will have the following additional properties:

Cost Center

Supervisor

Create a sub class for Developers which inherits from the Employee Class. The Developer class will have the following additional properties:

Developer Type (Script, .NET, Mobile, etc.)

Supervisor

Tax Type (W2, 1099-Contract)

Load employee information from a text file selected by the user into an array consisting of Managers and Developers. The format of your text file should be something like this:

First Name, Last Name, Street Address, City, State, Zip, Employee Type (Manager or Developer), Cost Center (0 if Developer), Supervisor, Tax Type (NA if Manager)

There should be a separate line for each employee (only one line per employee with the fields above) and your file should contain at least 7 - 10 employee records. You should save the file with a .txt or .csv extension.

The UI should allow the user to select how many records to view (start at 3 and allow up to the total number of records loaded).

The following requirements detail the critical elements that will determine the grading criteria for your submission. Please see the rubric below these requirements.

The application should compile and run successfully

The application should display Inheritance (Steps 1 - 3 above).

The application should allow the user to load a text or csv file for processing (Step 4 above).

The application should load the text file elements into an array of employee records (Step 4 & 4a above).

The application should display records from the array. The number of records to display should be selected by the user. (Step 5 above).

Your application should contain comments to explain the data and process flow of your code.

A red ball is thrown down with an initial speed of 1.3 m/s from a height of 27 meters above the ground. Then, 0.5 seconds after the red ball is thrown, a blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 24 m/s, from a height of 0.8 meters above the ground. The force of gravity due to the earth results in the balls each having a constant downward acceleration of 9.81 m/s2

What is the speed of the red ball right before it hits the ground?

(Is it just jus the velocity equestion?)

How long after the red ball is thrown are the two balls in the air at the same height?

Maybe I am not doing something right, but this is what I have: 27 - 1.3t - 4.9t^2 = -4.9t^2 + 28.9t-12.425
with -4.9t^2 + 28.9t-12.425 being derived from .8 + 24(t-.5)-4.9(t-.5)^2 the only thing I can thing of would be to maybe to have it as 8 + 24(t+.5)-4.9(t+.5)^2 ?

Is the acceleration postive or negative and is speeding up or slowing down?

Please no cursive Please and thank you

In Lesson Eleven you've seen how to use chi-square tests to answer research questions relevant to those statistical analysis procedures. Respond to the following to demonstrate your grasp of these.

  1. Describe a scenario where a researcher could use a Goodness of Fit Test to answer a research question. Fully describe the scenario and the variables involved and explain the rationale for your answer. Why is that test appropriate to use?
  2. Describe a scenario where a researcher could use a Test for Independence to answer a research question. Fully describe the scenario and the variables involved and explain the rationale for your answer. Why is that test appropriate to use?
  3. The Goodness of Fit Test and Test for Independence both use the same formula to calculate chi-square. Why? I.e., explain the logic of the test.
  4. Compare the Goodness of Fit Test and the Test for Independence in terms of the number of variables and levels of those that can be compared. In what ways are they similar or different?
  5. Describe how the Test for Independence and correlation are similar yet different.

A woman with genotype Dd Aa Bb has a child with a man who is dd Aa Bb.

DD and Dd are for thick lips, dd is for thin lips.
AA, Aa are brown eyes and aa are blue.
BB and Bb are thick brows and bb is thin brows.

a) What is the probability that their child will have thin lips, brown eyes and thick eyebrows.

b) What is the probability that their child will have either brown eyes or thin eyebrows.

C) the man also happens to be red-green color blind (x-linked recessive). The woman is not color blind but her father was. If their future child were a daughter wha us the probability that the male would display/carry the color-blind trait if their daughter has children with an unaffected male? What about the female?

E. canis is a tick-borne disease of dogs that is sometimes contracted by humans. Among infected humans, the distribution of white blood cell (WBC) counts has an unknown mean and standard deviation. In the general population, mean WBC is known to be μ=7250/mm . It is believed that persons infected with E. canis may have significantly different WBC counts, potentially making a WBC test an effective screening for E. canis in humans. In a sample of 15 people infected with E. canis, WBC count was ?=4767/mm with a standard deviation of s = 3204/mm . Answer the questions below. You must state your answers to all components below in a full sentence in a way that someone who isn’t in this class would understand. You may refer to the lectures, Test Yourself questions or the instructor for examples. (10 points)

  • a) State the null and alternative hypotheses.

  • b) Which statistical test will you use? Provide one reason why.

  • c) Determine the appropriate critical value for the test you will use. Use an alpha of 0.05.

  • d) Compute your test statistic and compare it to your critical value.

  • e) Determine the p-value.

  • f) What do you conclude?

  • g) Would your conclusions be different had you chosen an alpha of 0.01?

h) By changing your alpha from 0.05 to 0.01 did you increase or decrease the probability of a Type
II error (false negative)?

Complete a business leader profile using PowerPoint.

First, select a business leader that you know. Explain why you decided to focus on this person as a leader and make a post on this discussion board. The post should be at least one paragraph. This step is due by the end of week 4.

Second, Gather enough information that you are able to learn the traits that help them be a good leader and traits that undermine their leadership abilities, which leader power they use most frequently, which leadership theory most closely resembles their leadership style, how they drive change, and how they motivate their followers.

Third, compile your information and develop a PowerPoint presentation about your leader. Ensure that you cite references for the material you use in your presentation. You will receive 2 bonus points if you narrate your PowerPoint presentation.

Fourth, post your presentation as a post in the Module 7 discussion board. This step is due May 3rd in the module 7 discussion board.  

I already have my leader chosen. I do not understand how to evaluate the second part. I just need to know what the different traits, leader powers and leadership theories there are and what it means to drive change and motivate followers.

Chapter 4, Section 3, Exercise 116 Lizards and Invasive Fire Ants This exercise addresses lizard behavior in response to fire ants. The red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta, is native to South America, but has an expansive invasive range, including much of the southern United States (invasion of this ant is predicted to go global). In the United States, these ants occupy similar habitats as fence lizards. The ants eat the lizards and the lizards eat the ants, and in either scenario the venom from the fire ant can be fatal to the lizard. A study explored the question of whether lizards learn to adapt their behavior if their environment has been invaded by fire ants. The researchers selected lizards from an uninvaded habitat (eastern Arkansas) and lizards from an invaded habitat (southern Alabama, which has been invaded for more than 70 years) and exposed them to fire ants. They measured how long it takes each lizard to flee and the number of twitches each lizard does. The data are stored in FireAnts. If lizards adapt their behavior to the fire ants, then lizards from the invaded habitats should flee from the fire ants faster than lizards from the uninvaded habitats. Test this hypothesis. Time to flee is measured in seconds, and lizards taking more than a minute to flee have recorded responses of 61 seconds. Let group 1 be lizards from invaded habitats and let group 2 be lizards from uninvaded habitats.

(b) Use StatKey or other technology to compute the p-value.

Round your answer to three decimal places.
