The incomes of all families in a particular suburb can be represented by a continuous random variable.
The incomes of all families in a particular suburb can be represented by a continuous random variable. It is known that the median income for all families in this suburb is $60,000 and that 40% of all families in the suburb have incomes above $72,000.
a) For a randomly chosen family, what is the probability that its income will be between $60,000 and $72,000?
b) Given no further information is available, what can be said about the probability that a randomly chosen family has an income below $65,000?
A portfolio manager has asked you to analyze a newly acquired portfolio to determine its value and variability. The portfolio consists of 50 shares of Alpha Music and 40 shares of Beta Shows. Analysis of past history indicates that the share price of Alpha Music has a mean of $25 and variance of 121. Similarly, Beta Shows has a mean share price of $40 with a variance of 225. Your best evidence indicates that the share prices have a correlation coefficient of +0.5.
a) Compute the mean value and variance of the portfolio.
b) If the correlation coefficient between the share prices were actually – 0.5, what would be the mean value and the variance of the portfolio?

CITE ALL SOURCES
Discuss the ways in which your topic (i.e. westward expansion, slavery, civil war, women’s suffrage, religion, etc.) impacted and/or changed the US.
In a broad sense, what were the conditions prior to (a), the process toward (b), and the results of that change (c)? For each part (a, b, and c), include examples and evidence to support your argument(s). The following questions are a guide to the type of information and analysis you should include in your discussion. Ask yourself the following as you start the writing process:
- What were the conditions in society prior to your topic that influenced, spawned, caused, or led to it? (I.e. what is the historical context?)
- Discuss the process of change.
- Was it gradual or swift?
i. Why?
ii. In what ways?
- Did violence and/or resistance accompany it?
- What ideology informed/influenced/spurred the change?
- What were the cultural, social, and/or political results of those changes?
- Were the outcomes positive or negative?
- Who did they benefit, and whom did they harm? Offer evidence for both.
The final aspect of your paper is to discuss the historical significance of your topic (the last paragraph before the conclusion). Specifically, you must link your chosen topic to present-day society, events, people, policies, etc. Tell me how your topic continues to manifest in today’s society. You do not need primary sources in this paragraph…it is purely your opinion. But, you should include examples with enough detail so I know what you are specifically referencing. The historical significance is arguably the most crucial part of the essay because it requires critical thinking skills to link history across time and space.
4 pages and include at least four to five primary documents. You can also use secondary sources such as the Ebook, and monographs and/or articles by scholars. You can use both types of sources, but primary ones are required.
Early computer systems relied on command line interfaces to perform all actions
Direct Manipulation
Early computer systems relied on command line interfaces to perform all actions. Today, the majority of systems use direct manipulation rather than a command line interface. The goal of designing a direct manipulation interface is to make use of the system intuitive to the end user. One industry that has been extremely successful designing intuitive direct manipulation inputs is the video game industry. Most game players are able to learn controls as they play a game and then apply the same controls to similar games. Rarely do they need to read a user manual.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
- Describe the three (3) principles of direct manipulation and give examples as to how they are used in video game controls.
- Analyze video game-type interfaces and discuss three (3) reasons why video game-type interfaces would not be effective for real-world applications.
- Describe at least three (3) advantages of direct manipulation versus command line interfaces.
- Evaluate direct manipulation and describe three (3) problems with it.
- Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.
