The accompanying graph depicts workers with a high school diploma and a bachelor’s degree, along with their income levels.*  Clearly describe why this graph is deceptive. *Problem adapted from your book.    

Heather’s grades from last semester are summarized below.  What was her semester GPA?  Use the included table.  Do not round until the end of the problem and then round your final answer to three decimal places (the thousandths place).  Hint: Find the weighted mean.   MATH 130: 4 credits B+ WRIT 099: 3 credits C PHYS 201: 5 credits A- Grade Honors/AP A 5.0 A- 4.667 B+ 4.333 B 4.0 B- 3.667 C+ 3.333 C 3.0 C- 2.667 D+ 2.333 D 2.0 D- 1.667 F 1        

Given a map scale of 1 inch = 5000 feet, which side of the engineer scale would you use?

Using pacing, you measure the length of a line as 470 feet long. If you were to draw this line on a map having a scale of 1 inch = 300 feet, how long would this line be using the 10 scale?

The measurements in Target a are considered:

Convert an angle of 62° 17’ 29” to decimal degrees.

Country A can make two goods, Good F and Good G. For each increase in the production of Good G, it gives up 3 units of Good F. What is the opportunity cost for Country A to produce one unit of Good G? What is the shape of the PPC for Country A? Explain. Suppose Country B produces apples and dish soap. If each time Country B produces another unit of dish soap it costs more and more apples, what law does this illustrate? Using the chart below, answer the following questions: Wristwatches produced in one week Cupcakes produced in one week Country X 200 100 Country Y 150 50 Which country has the absolute advantage in producing cupcakes? Explain. Which country has the comparative advantage in cupcakes? Explain. Country X and Country Y specialize and trade 1 cupcake for 4 wrist watches. Is this trade beneficial for Country X? Is this trade beneficial for Country Y?

Using the same audiogram from question 2, identify the type of hearing loss [type] and degree of hearing loss [degree] in the LEFT ear: 

Using the patient responses listed below, calculate the threshold for stimuli starting at 50 dB HL (Trial 1). “Positive” indicates that the patient responded to the stimuli, “negative” indicates that they did not respond to the stimuli. You may plot the responses on the handout to help you find the threshold but it is not required. (remember your units in the answer) Trial # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Response Positive Positive Positive Negative Negative Positive Negative Negative Positive Level (dBHL) 50 Trial # 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 Response Negative Negative Negative Negative Positive Positive Negative Negative Positive Level (dBHL)   Threshold = __________________________
