(20) 5. A study was done to see how some of the characteristics of a worker's employer (like the size of the employer, or how long it has been in business) affect the wages of that worker. The data for the study came from a survey of workers that asked about the worker's personal characteristics, but also got the name and address of the worker's employer so that employer characteristics could be measured as well. The sample size was 1067....

The argument is certainly a tempting one and makes some sense. The question is, does it work in practice? To get a handle on the answer, we propose a simple model consisting of one equation that relates tax revenue, income, and tax rate: TR t-Y. where TR is tax revenue, t is tax rate, and Y is aggregate income, e.g. GDP. Suppose, the tax rate t is reduced by fraction c, where 0<c<1. For example, if c-0.05, then the new...

Can Dogs Understand Human Cues? EXPLORATION Dogs have been domesticated for about 14,000 years. In that time, have they been able to develop an understanding of human gestures such as pointing or glancing? How about simi lar nonhuman cues? Researchers Udell, Giglio, and Wynne tested a small number of dogs in order to answer these questions. In this exploration, we wll first see whether dogs can understand human gestures as well as nonhuman gestures. To test this, the researchers positioned...

Assignment 4 Real Deal: Crier On Us Some word games, like Scrabble, require rearranging a combination of letters to make a word. This type of arrangement is generally referred to as an anagram, it's known as a permutation in mathematics. This assignment will give you some experience thinking about and writing recursive functions. Write a C++ program that searches for ``anagrams'' in a dictionary. An anagram is a word obtained by scrambling the letters of some string. For example, the...

EMERGING MARKETS/ETHICAL DILEMMA Closing Case: What If NAFTA Goes Away? In effect since 1994, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has no shortage of controversies. As Trump has assumed power, the criticisms against NAFTA, potentially culminating in its repeal, force us to entertain a previously unthinkable scenario: What happens if NAFTA goes away? The answer to this question obviously boils down to what NAFTA has brought to the United States. In two decades, trilateral merchandise trade among three member...
