Phase 2

/in /by

Using the same data set and variables for your selected topic, add the following information to your analysis:

Discuss the importance of constructing confidence intervals for the population mean.
            What are confidence intervals?
            What is a point estimate?
            What is the best point estimate for the population mean? Explain.
            Why do we need confidence intervals?
    Find the best point estimate of the population mean.
    Construct two confidence intervals for the population mean: a 95% confidence interval and a 99% confidence interval. Assume that your data is normally distributed and the population standard deviation is unknown.
            Please show your work for the construction of these confidence intervals and be sure to format your equations to fit the appropriate form (may need editing here).
    Write a paragraph that correctly interprets the confidence intervals in context of your selected topic.
    Compare and contrast your findings for the 95% and 99% confidence intervals.
        Did you notice any changes in your interval estimate? Explain.
        What conclusion(s) can be drawn about your interval estimates when the confidence level is increased? Explain.2

Prejudice, Discrimination, Power, and Privilege

/in /by

write a 660-1320 word paper (not including title page) that addresses the following:

Describe the diversity situation or cultural dilemma and the cultural groups impacted by this topic. (Black woman & White women in USA)
Explain the types of power or privilege each group possesses. In what ways are members of each group aware (or not aware) of their power or privilege?

Decision making process

/in /by

Question 1: An ongoing debate has been about whether or not building a wall on Mexico’s southern border could significantly help with national safety. Note that “building a wall” represents an alternative decision. Informed by the 6-Step Rational Decision Making model (attached below), assess the effectiveness of this alternative decision. In your response, please be sure to identify and discuss any biases and/or heuristics that might have influenced or led to this proposed decision.         

Question 2: Select and briefly describe a decision (as well as the related context) that you have been trying to make or one that was recently made by your manager or a leader of a famous company. Use Consequentialism and Deontology to assess this decision from an ethical perspective. 

Combine 3 APIs together in Rails

/in /by

There were 3 stages to this and my group completed 2 of 3. This is the last stage for my group project.

We each have our own API. Edamams Nutrition facts API, Yelp Search API and an SMS sender API. Each has their own rails environment and functional databases. My professor said, “okay now combine them into one rails application, combine their databases, and create a webpage that makes use of these APIs. Make it in a way so they interact with each other” and that’s where we need help.
