Listed are two teens with Eating Disorders. Write a 150-word paragraph for both teens that describe possible signs of the disorder that other people might notice. Make sure to include the health consequences that each teen might have. Also, If these two were your friends how would you help them?

Mary is 14.   She is 5’7” tall and weighs 110-pounds, she looks in the mirror and sees a fat person. At lunch with her parents she tells them that she is not hungry and she will eat later. However, Mary does not eat later because she is starving herself in silence. She has not told anyone. She has eaten less than 500 calories per day for the last 2 weeks.

Sam is 17. He is a wrestler. Sam is the best in his weight class. However, if he gains 5 pounds he will get bumped up a class and then will have to wrestle larger athletes. Sam exercises excessively and he takes laxatives to lose weight. He has thrown up a few times after he eats fast food with his friends. Sam does not eat or drink the day before he gets weighed- in for the match. Immediately after weigh-in, Sam eats excessively for energy before he wrestles.

Python(please take a screen shot!):

1. hamming distance: write a function distance that take two bits strings, you can assume each strings only contains 0's and 1's. (Note: the two strings might have the same length or not!)

for example:

hamming('010001001111', '01010100') should return 5(1 bit changed plus 4 bits "lost" from the end). 

2. write a main function that ask user for two file names, open files and read the 1st line of each, and compares them using Hamming Distance. Just assume each of the 1st line only contains 0's and 1's.

The main function may have to do some extra work to remove newline characters or other whitespace from the text read from each file.

(when create two files to test the main function, make sure the file saved as (.txt) !)

Thanks so much !!!

A clinical trial is conducted to compare an experimental medication to placebo to reduce the symptoms of asthma. Two hundred participants are enrolled in the study and randomized to receive either the experimental medication or placebo. The primary outcome is self-reported reduction of symptoms. The data are recorded as follows.

You are considering investing $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of Treasury bills that pay 5% and a risky portfolio, P, constructed with two risky securities, X and Y. The optimal weights of X and Y in P are 60% and 40%, respectively. X has an expected rate of return of 14%, and Y has an expected rate of return of 10%. The dollar values of your positions in X, Y, and Treasury bills would be _________, __________, and __________, respectively, if you decide to hold a complete portfolio that has an expected return of 8%.

1. Compound A is three times more soluble in diethyl ether than in water, so its partition coefficient is K = 3, for partitioning of compound A between diethyl ether and water. For a sample of compound A dissolved in 50 mL of water, answer the following questions:

A.) Determine the fraction of A that remains in the water, FsubA, after one extraction with 200 mL of diethyl ether.

B.) Determine FsubA after two extractions, using 100 mL of diethyl ether in each of the extractions.

C.) Determine FsubA after four extractionsm using 50 mL of deithyl ether in each of the extractions.
