------------------------------------------------- A life insurance company wants to estimate their annual payouts. Assume that the probability distribution of the lifetimes of the participants is approximately a normal distribution with a mean of 68 years and a standard deviation of 4 years. What proportion of the plan recipients would receive payments beyond age 74? Round your result to four significant places after the decimal. 4. -------------------------------------------------…

A small burette funnel was filled with column packing solvent at mobile phase, high boiling petroleum, in this case hexane (and then 10%acetone hexane mixture), and Alumina as stationary phase. When adding the sand and the alumina they have to be first mixed with the hexanes in order not to disturb the column. The Lycopene is Red- Orange and more attracted to alumina due to its high degree of Unsaturation, which can be expected to be eluted after Yellow-Orange Carotene pigments. And the other…

Confirm that the simulation has been reset by checking that the Time Elapsed box to the right of the Control Panel reads “0 Years”. 8 Click the STEP 50 button on the Control Panel, and the simulation will run for 50 years and automatically stop. Watch the graph to confirm that the size of the moose population changes dramatically when the moose first arrive, and then eventually stabilizes (levels out). ← You can adjust how fast the simulation runs with the SPEED slider to…

statistics were used to describe the length of labor in this study? Were these appropriate? The SD of the experimental group was 7.78 hours with a mean of 14.63 and was measured in 30 of 32 subjects. The SD of the control group was 7.2 hours with the mean being 12.79 hours, measured in 33 of 35 subjects. Based on the statistical methods to obtain the means, these number look right to me although 12 to 14 hours of labor for an average woman in today’s world is often long thus I would expect…

relationship between the two sets of data between the birth weight and the gestation period of smoking mothers and non-smoking mothers. Part A: The median for the whole data set is 3067.5 pounds for birth weight and 39 weeks for gestation period. The mean birth weight for infants born to smoking mothers is 92.5 pounds less than the infants born to non-smoking mothers. This is a small number compared to the birth weight so it…

Marx’s Theory of Historical Change states that society is determined at any given time by the means of productions (land, technology, and natural resources) and the social relationships that are occurring while amassing these means of production- like becoming a farmer to feed your family. His theory was based off of Hegel’s Theory of History which explores how we place ourselves in a world of aesthetics whilst the real world is more idealistic. Despite partially agreeing with Hegel’s theory,…

The bourgeoisie are the ones who hold the majority of America’s wealth, despite what ideal notions people have. The bourgeoisie are also the ones who control the means of production and how the economy is perceived by the masses. The reality of poverty is pushed away to conceal how distorted the United States wealth is distributed. Marx’s focus on the exploitation of capitalism helps recover the issues of poverty…

Economic Freedom Imagine a world where capitalism was the only ideology. What would it look like? Well, in general, there would be little to no governmental intervening or help given to the people and all businesses would be run and maintained by the citizens instead of the government. However, there are some problems with this totally capitalistic world, especially with corruption involved. To avoid these problems, a socialist view can be inputted instead of capitalist. Socialism is the…

Aaron is a 9 year-old boy in the 4th grade at Schultz Elementary School. He was referred to the child study team because of poor academic performance and impulsive, oppositional, and sometimes threatening behavior.

Ms. Faber, Aaron’s teacher, believes Aaron’s poor reading skills are due to lack of practice at home and low motivation triggered by frustration. Aaron has difficulties with disruptive behaviors in the classroom; he…
