#7     In this problem, you are tasked with calculating the shaded area within a circle, excluding the area of an inscribed square. You need to print out the final answer of the shaded area to three decimal places.   Hints: Use printf You may want to subtract one shapes area from another to get the total shaded area.  Area or circle :

#21 Within the main method, write the code that will declare a String variable named word with the initial value of “beekeeper”, and will then print the location of the third occurrence of the letter ‘e’ in the word.  The output message will say “The location of the third e in beekeeper is xxxx”. Your code replaces xxxx with the  location of the third e in the word… be careful here. b is at location 0. Hint: Use a built-in String method. Note: hard coding the location will give you zero points for the problem.   In main: public static void main(String args[]) {       //declare your variable(s) here and initialize       //find the location of the third ‘e’      //print that location }

# 15   After this code executes what is the value of result? public static void main(String[] args){int x = 3;int y = 2;int z = 16;double result = Math.pow(x+y, y) + Math.sqrt(z);}

#1 What is the value of a after the code executes? int a = 3;int b = 7;int c = 4;int d = 6; a = b * c – d + a;

Sonya Murray is a 32-year-old with sickle cell disease.  She has been fairly healthy until this week, when she developed a cold that settled in her chest, resulting in congestion and a productive cough of thick green sputum.  She has no appetite and has not had much to eat or drink for a few days.  Today she is admitted with painful knees and back.  She says that it hurts so bad she can hardly move around and has come to the hospital for pain relief.  She says that she has been admitted to the hospital 5 or 6 times previously for similar painful episodes.  Her sclera are icteric, mucous membranes are dry, skin is warm, and knees are swollen, hot, and painful to touch.  She appears short of breath and oxygen is administered.  Vital signs are:  38.9 C, 112, 30, 96/48, 93% on 2 liters nasal cannula. The following laboratory values were reported:   Ms. Murray’s reticulocyte count indicates which of the following?

Jon Gibbs is a 28-year-old college student who has been reportedly healthy with the exception of recent fatigue and low energy.  School “has been stressful this year” but he says that he tries to exercise and eat as well as he can to stay healthy.   Mr. Gibbs faints in class and falls, hitting his head on a desk on the way to the floor.  911 is called and emergency personnel arrive!  Vital signs are 37.9 C, 112, 30, 200/104.  The cardiac monitor displays an irregular cardiac rhythm with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs).  A swollen, red area is noted on the back of his head from the fall.   Mr. Gibbs is subsequently admitted to the hospital.  You observe that he is alert, shaky with trembling hands, anxious, and weak.  Skin is dry and mucous membranes are moist.  He has bilateral edema of his feet and ankles.  A chest x-ray reveals myocardial hypertrophy, and a computerized tomography (CT) scan of the head is negative. Serum Electrolytes are assessed.
