Scenario

You are the nurse working triage in the emergency department (ED). This afternoon a woman brings in her father, ALI, a 72-year-old who is a retired doctor. The daughter reports that over the past several months she has noticed her father has progressively had problems with his mental capacity. These changes have developed gradually but seem to be getting worse. At times he is alert, and at other times he seems disoriented, depressed, and tearful. He is forgetting things and doing things out of the ordinary, such as placing the milk in the cupboard and sugar in the refrigerator. He had difficulty finding objects in the kitchen and at times forgets where his room is.

This morning he thought it was nighttime and wondered what his daughter was doing at his house. He could not pour his coffee, and he seems to be getting more agitated. ALI reports that he has been having memory problems for the past year and at times has difficulty remembering the names of family members and friends.

A review of his past medical history (PMH) is significant for hypercholesterolemia and coronary artery disease (CAD). He had a myocardial infarction (MI) 5 years ago. ALI’s vital signs (VS) today are all within normal limits (WNL).

Q:You know that age-related changes in the elderly may influence cognitive functioning. Name and discuss two.

Suppose rRF = 3%, rM = 10%, and bi = 1.4. What is ri, the required rate of return on Stock i? Round your answer to two decimal places. % 1. Now suppose rRF increases to 4%. The slope of the SML remains constant. How would this affect rM and ri? Both rM and ri will remain the same. Both rM and ri will increase by 1%. rM will remain the same and ri will increase by 1%. rM will increase by 1% and ri will remain the same. Both rM and ri will decrease by 1%. 2. Now suppose rRF decreases to 2%. The slope of the SML remains constant. How would this affect rM and ri? Both rM and ri will increase by 1%. Both rM and ri will remain the same. Both rM and ri will decrease by 1%. rM will decrease by 1% and ri will remain the same. rM will remain the same and ri will decrease by 1%. 1. Now assume that rRF remains at 3%, but rM increases to 11%. The slope of the SML does not remain constant. How would these changes affect ri? Round your answer to two decimal places. The new ri will be %. 2. Now assume that rRF remains at 3%, but rM falls to 9%. The slope of the SML does not remain constant. How would these changes affect ri?

In order to study the activity of enzyme X, cells were treated with either glucagon, dibutyryl cAMP, glucagon plus H-8, or glucagon with D-2 at does to achieve a maximal effect. The activity and concentration of enzyme X were then assayed in dilute cell-free extracts. Dibutyryl cAMP is an analog of cAMP that diffuses across cell membranes more easily than does cAMP itself. H-8 is a selective inhibitor of protein kinase A. D-2 is a selective inhibitor of CREB. The results are shown in the following table.

It can be inferred from these results that glucagon most likely acts to _____________ and the changes or part of the changes in activity of enzyme X are most likely mediated by _____________ .

Select one:

a. increase the catalytic efficiency of enzyme X not through protein kinase A; elevated cAMP level

b. increase the catalytic efficiency of enzyme X through protein kinase A; stimulate transcription of the gene for enzyme X

c. cannot be determined

d. increase the catalytic efficiency of enzyme X not through protein kinase A; stimulate transcription of the gene for enzyme X

e. increase the catalytic efficiency of enzyme X through protein kinase A; elevated cAMP level

In a far away and long ago, there are only two weather states, rain and sun. If it's sunny today the probability it's be sunny tomorrow is 0.8. If it's rainy today the probability it'll be sunny tomorrow is 0.4. Weather changes are well described by a Markov chain. a) It's sunny today, and tomorrow is the start a 4-day holiday. What is the probability that all 4 days are sunny? b) A parade scheduled for the last day of the holiday. What is the probability of rain on the parade? c) A royal wedding is planned for one year (365) from today. If it's an outdoor wedding what is the probability the wedding gets rained out.

Hint: This is the steps. Thank you

The following cost functions apply to X Company's regular production and sales during the year:

  Cost of goods sold:   $5.41 (X) + $122,760

  Selling and administrative expenses:   $1.43 (X) + $67,580

where X is the number of units produced and sold. During the year, X Company sold 62,000 units for $17.00 each. At the end of the year, a company offered to buy 4,230 units but was only willing to pay $11.00 each. X Company had the capacity to produce the additional 4,230 units.

5. If X Company had accepted the special order, firm profits would have increased by $17,597

6. Consider the following three changes. Direct material costs on the special order would have increased by $0.79 per unit, direct labor costs on the special order would have decreased by $0.38 per unit, and X Company would have had to rent special equipment for $1,000. Independent of your answer to (5), the effect of these changes would have been to reduce profit on the special order by $2,734

7. In order to retain all of X Company's regular customers, it would have had to reduce the regular selling price by $0.50. If the selling price were reduced and next year's unit sales turned out to be the same as this year's sales, firm profits would have fallen by
