“The number 13{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”13″} is both a multiple and a factor of 13{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”13″}.”

On your paper, Compute the product of 17×27{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”17×27″} using the partial products algorithm and the standard algorithm (also known as the common method). • Label the products in the partial products algorithm.• Label the products in the standard algorithm.• Show how the products in the standard are related to the products in the partial products algorithm.                          Partial Products                              Standard (Common) (b) Show how to calculate 17×27{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”17×27″} step-by-step by writing equations that use the distributive property of multiplication over addition and expanded forms based on the partial products algorithm. Hint: Be careful not to skip any steps.  (c) Make a sketch of the dots below or use the array of dots given for problem #17 on the drawing sheet for the Final exam that was given in the news feed on D2L.   (An area model will also suffice.) Subdivide the dots in a natural way so that the parts correspond with the standard algorithm (also known as the common method) used to calculate the product of 17×27{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”17×27″}. Accurately and clearly label all parts of the diagram so that the subdivision corresponds with the steps. The diagram below is 40{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”40″}-dots-by-40{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”40″}-dots. The line marking on the diagram are only there to help count the dots. Be sure to count the dots accurately. Click “Complete” when you have completed your work on this problem or are ready to move on. 

Each word problem below involves the fractions 34{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”34″}and 23{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”23″}. Match each word problem with the mathematical expression that best fits the situation.

What type of problem is this? 

The strip below shows a sidewalk that is 23{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”23″} of a mile long and is made of 6{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”6″} sections.  On your paper, (a) How many sections make a sidewalk that is one mile long? Make a clearly labeled drawing to show the number of sections.  (b) Briefly explain how to reason using our definition of fractions to determine how many sections make a sidewalk that is one mile long.  Click “Complete” when you have completed your work on this problem or are ready to move on. 

According to the President’s Commission, the absence of objective medical criteria implies that 

The Supreme Court case of Tarasoff v. Regents of the University of California raised the ethical dilemma concerning 

Although Kuhse introduces the surrogate mother analogy to characterize the traditional role of a nurse, Newton rejects it on sexist grounds.

Renee is a registered nurse who is caring for Gloria, a frail, elderly, terminally ill patient who also suffers from dementia. Gloria has no family to convey her wishes, and is often confused during treatments. Renee is concerned that continuation of Gloria’s treatment plan which includes chemotherapy might be more harmful than beneficial.  Gloria has received chemotherapy in the past, but Renee had to interrupt the treatment several times because Gloria experienced nausea, difficulty breathing, and tachycardia (increased heart rate). Renee does not want Gloria to suffer and challenges the doctor’s orders. She refuses to administer chemotherapy to Gloria. The doctor reprimands the nurse, and reminds her that as medical professionals they are both obligated to do whatever they can to save the patient’s life. Is Renee justified in refusing the doctor’s orders? Your answer should include the following: – According to the lectures and the Florence Nightingale Pledge, what is the traditional role of the nurse? Is Renee fulfilling that role? Why or why not?  -Would Newton argue that Renee’s refusal to follow the doctor’s orders is justified? Include at least ONE of Newton’s arguments to support your answer.  -Would Kuhse argue that Renee’s refusal to follow the doctor’s orders is justified? Include at least ONE of Kuhse’s arguments to support your answer.
