Question 3: Let’s think about the road on Laurel Avenue between Howell and Dewey Streets. There are no parking restrictions on this particular section of Laurel Avenue.

(a) Is the good “street parking” on this particular block an excludable or non-excludable good? Briefly explain.

(b) Is the good “street parking” on this particular block a rival or non-rival good? Briefly explain.

(c) Using your answers above, what “type of good” is “street parking” on this particular block? (Private good, public good, common resource, natural monopoly?) Briefly explain.

(d) Using your answer in part (c) is this good susceptible to either a “free-rider problem” or a “tragedy of the commons problem.” Briefly explain.

(e) Using your answer in part (d), do we expect this good to be over or under consumed? Briefly explain.

(f) Suppose the people who live on this block petition the city to have the street designated as permit parking only. How does this change what “type of good” street parking on this block is? Briefly explain.

Write 500 words on the following prompt: You are a scientist who is in charge of a team that is investigating a claim that a very simple form of life has been discovered on another planet. Explain your plan for what you want to learn to perhaps determine if this life form is related to life on Earth, or perhaps it is a unique form of life that evolved independently. You must use and discuss in DETAIL 5 major biochemical or cellular biology concepts in relation to the prompt.

Please explain in your own words, what is the difference between state and federal government? Please don't copy paste from a website.

what is something you enjoy about the state standards?

What is red tide? Walsh and Carder of University of South Florida attribute red tide to dust from Saharan desert storms. They observe that during red tide, a bacterium called Trichodesmium converts nitrogen in the water to a form that algae can use. Link these observations with what you have learned in class.

Cracker companies look for ways to reduce how often we find broken crackers when we buy a package. One idea is to microwave the crackers for 30 seconds right after baking them. A researcher randomly assigned 65 newly baked crackers to be microwaved, and another 65 newly baked crackers to a control group that is not microwaved. Fourteen days after baking, 3 of the microwaved crackers and 57 of the "control" crackers showed preliminary signs of breaking. Is this enough evidence to say that microwaving the crackers reduces breaking?

First answer each of these questions:

i) Does this call for a confidence interval or a hypothesis test?

ii) Is this 1 sample or 2 samples?

iii) Is this about mean(s) or proportion(s)?

iv) If this is about mean(s), do you know the SD of the population (σ — or σ1 & σ2 )? (If this is about proportions, skip this question.)

b) What are the population parameter(s), and what are the sample statistic(s)? Provide symbols, and say what they represent in the context of the question. (For example, "µ is the mean completion time of the population, and x̄ is the mean completion time for the sample".) You may want to give the statistic values here.

c)Complete the question. Details depend on the kind of problem:

• For a confidence interval:

i) State the confidence level. (If it is not given, make a reasonable choice.)

ii) Give the formula for the margin of error (symbols only, no numbers!).

iii) Calculate the margin of error (show your work!).

iv) State the confidence interval in a complete sentence (in words!), in the context of the original problem. (You may use whichever form you prefer.)

• For a hypothesis test:

i) State the significance level (alpha). (If it is not given, make a reasonable choice.)

ii) Give the formula for the test statistic (z or t) (symbols only, no numbers!).

iii) State the null and alternative hypotheses. Use symbols, and state them in the context of the original problem. (A sketch is optional, but very useful.)

iv) Calculate the test statistic (z or t) (show your work!), and determine the p-value.

v) State your conclusion in a complete sentence (in words!), in the context of the original problem. Your conclusion should state whether or not you reject the null hypothesis, and what this says about the original question.

Coronary artery disease is a common type of heart disease and the leading cause of death among both men and women in the United States. In this assignment, you will explore this disease in more detail using the scenario below.

Scenario:
One of your aging relatives is sedentary and smokes cigarettes. Out of concern for his health, you decide to research more about this disease.

To complete this assignment, do the following:

1. Research this disease using a minimum of 2 sources.
2. In a minimum of 2 pages (not counting the references page), address the following:
   • Explain how coronary artery disease develops in the human body.
   • Describe the ways that your relative can prevent the onset of this disease.
   • Explain what treatment options exist if steps to prevent the disease fail.
3. Include a references page at the end of your document, formatted using the APA guidelines, that lists your research sources.
