American Auto is evaluating its marketing plan for the sedans, SUVs, and trucks the company produces. A TV ad featuring this SUV has been developed. The company estimates each showing of this commercial will cost $500,000 and increase sales of SUVs by 3% but reduce sales of trucks by 1% and have no effect on the sales of sedans. The company also has a print ad campaign developed that it can run in various nationally distributed magazines at a cost of $750,000 per title. It is estimated that each magazine title the ad runs in will increase the sales of sedans, SUVs, and trucks by 2%, 1%, and 4%, respectively. The company desires to increase sales of sedans, SUVs, and trucks by at least 3%, 14%, and 4%, respectively, in the least costly manner.

The Transportation Safety Authority (TSA) has developed a new test to detect large amounts of liquid in luggage bags. Based on many test runs, the TSA determines that if a bag does contain large amounts of liquid, there is a probability of 0.9 the test will detect it. If a bag does not contain large amounts of liquid, there is a 0.09 probability the test will conclude that it does (a false positive). Suppose that in reality only 1 in 100 bags actually contain large amounts of liquid.
a. What is the probability a randomly selected bag will have a positive test? Give your answer to four decimal places.
b. Given a randomly selected bag has a positive test, what is the probability it actually contains a large amount of liquid? Give your answer to four decimal places.
c. Given a randomly selected bag has a positive test, what is the probability it does not contain a large amount of liquid? Give your answer to four decimal places.

Address Labeller Simple databases normally store address information as single line of data. In our database, fields are delimited by the percent sign '%' and can be placed in any order. Each field starts with a label "Street:", "City:", "State:", and "Zipcode:". Write an address labeller that extracts the fields from a database record entered by the user and prints a label if all fields are present. The program will report on any missing fields.
Sample runs: Enter an address database entry: State:New York%Street:12 Primrose Lane%Zipcode:11564%City:ValleyStream% 12 Primrose Lane ValleyStream, New York 11564
Enter an address database entry: Street:12 Primrose Lane%Zipcode:11564%State:New York%City:ValleyStream% 12 Primrose Lane ValleyStream, New York 11564
Enter an address database entry: Street:12 Primrose Lane%State:New York%City:ValleyStream% Error: Address does not contain zipcode

In an attempt to explain what an elder matrix is: it is a n by m matrix in which each row and each column is sorted in ascending order.
Inputs in the matrix can either be finite integers or ∞. the ∞symbol is used when accounting for nonexistent inputs.
for all questions below please answer using pseudocode and explainations
(a) create an algorithm EXTRACT-MIN on an Elder Matrix that is not
empty. the algorithm must run in O(m+n) time. The algorithm must
use a recursive function that solves an m by n problem by
recursively solving a (m-1) by n problem or a m by (n-1)
problem.
(b)create an algorithm INSERT of an integer into a m by n Elder
Matrix that runs in O(m+n) time.
(c) Using no other sorting method as a subroutine, show how to use
a n by n Elder Matrix to sort n2 numbers in O(n3) time. (Suppose we
let k = n2. Then this is an O(k1.5) sorting algorihm

For C++ IDE
Write an C++ to check if a number is falling within the range j...k (inclusive). Ask the user to enter both ranges j, K and the number num you want to check. Output the suitable message based on the situation Within the range Outside the range Always prompt the user to enter a value using a suitable message.
For example (multiple runs)
Enter J - beginning of the range: 3
Enter K – end of the range: 15
Enter the value you want to check: 6
6 is within the range 3 to 15
Enter J - beginning of the range: 6
Enter K – end of the range: 15
Enter the value you want to check: 6
6 is within the range 6 to 15
Enter J - beginning of the range: 6
Enter K – end of the range: 15
Enter the value you want to check: 16
16 is outside the range 6 to 15

Red Red Wine is a wine bar that has been incorporated by Amie. It operates as a closelyheld corporation. The other shareholders are Amie’s brother and sister-in-law. Amie runs the day-to-day management of the wine bar, including managing the books and records. Amie’s brother and sister-in-law handle distribution, sales and marketing. After a few years, Amie starts to feel like she is doing the majority of the work and becomes bitter about the business relationship. She feels like she should be earning more money for the amount of work she does for the bar. Without discussing it with her brother and sister-in-law, Amie starts taking an additional draw from the wine bar every month in the amount of $1,000. She deposits the money into a business account for an LLC she created. On the books and records of the wine bar, Amie records this amount to the LLC as a “consultation fee.” Can Amie be held personally liable in this situation? If so, why?

For each of the 3 causal questions (i, ii, and iii) answer the following (and label your answers clearly):
a. What is the outcome variable and what is the treatment?
b. Define the counterfactual outcomes Yi(0) and Yi(1)
c.What plausible causal channel(s) runs directly from the treatment to the outcome? In what direction would that push the results?
d.Is reverse causality a potential concern?
e.What are possible sources of selection and/or omitted variable bias in the raw comparison of outcomes and treatment status? Which way(s) would you expect the bias to go and why?
Questions
i.Many firms, particularly in poorer countries, are small and informal.Do informal firms grow more slowly than formal firms?
ii.Do students who come to class more get higher grades?
iii.Are countries whose governments are a larger part of the economy (ie G/GDP is larger) wealthier?
