[Solved] Central Points Without Plagiarizing

Purpose: This assignment will challenge you to analyze, reconstruct, and adjudicate the debates between Luther and Cajetan.

Instructions: Utilizing everything we have thus far read (i.e., Cajetan and Luther), attempt to reconstruct the fundamental arguments between the two in dialogue format. Be sure to accurately represent each side and to include their central points without plagiarizing or quoting at length. Once you have done that, you should attempt to adjudicate which arguments are more correct or true to reality and revelation.

Example:

Luther: I have enumerated the grave errors of the whore of Babylon, the Church of the Pope of Rome, and the antichrist, in my 95 theses.Cajetan: But thesis 1 misrepresents the Church’s teaching on x because . . . Luther: You are sorely mistaken, oh high Cardinal. The Church solemnly declared y. . . Cajetan: But you misunderstand the declaration y because it clearly means . . .  

Submission Instructions:

  • The submission must be formatted thus: double-spaced, Times New Roman, font 12, 1-inch margins, no spaces between paragraphs, no section headings or subtitles, and no more than eight total lines of quoted material (e.g., you may have four quotes that are each approximately two lines or two quotes that are three lines each and one that’s two lines…).
  • The dialogue is to be clear and concise and students will lose points for improper grammar, punctuation and misspelling.
  • The dialogue should be formatted per current CMOS and 3-5 pages in length. You will automatically lose points if these limits are not followed.
  • Reference each of the lecture materials at least one time, formatted in current CMOS.

[Solved] 8 Per Extra Goodie

[Solved] 8 Per Extra Goodie

Dorothee is planning her daughter Elsa’s birthday party which will take place at the Young Chefs Academy (YCA) in Frisco.  The kids will make pizza from scratch, cook it then eat it.    One week before the party date, Dorothee has to communicate to the YCA a fixed number of kids and this number is used to determine the cost of the party. Specifically, the price charged by YCA is equal to $18 times the quoted number of kids.   If, on the day of the party fewer kids show up than the quoted number, Dorothee does not get a refund.  If, on the other hand, more kids show up than the quoted number, she has to pay $25 per extra kid.  Separately, Dorothee will also buy some “goodie bags” at Party City (Elsa’s favorite store) for the kids to take home with them after the party.   These will be purchased one week before the party and cost $5 per bag.    If, after the party, there are some goodie bags left, Dorothee’s friend Mary will buy them back from her for $3 each.   If, on the other hand, there are not enough goodie bags on the day of the party, Dorothee will run to the nearest store and buy a few small gadgets and sweets at a cost of $8 per extra goodie bag needed.   Elsa has invited 20 of her best friends.  Based on this number, the possible number of kids coming to the party, and the corresponding probability, is given in the following table:

A. What is the expected number of kids that will show up on the day of the party?____  kids

B. Suppose Dorothee tells the YCA that 17 kids will come to the party and picks up 17 goodie bags from Party City but in fact 18 kids show up on the day of the party.  How much is her total cost? $______ 

C. Suppose Dorothee tells the YCA that 17 kids will come to the party and picks up 17 goodie bags from Party City but in fact only 14 show up show up on the day of the party.  How much is her total cost? $_____ 

D. Suppose Dorothee decides to tell the YCA that 17 kids will come to the party and picks up 17 goodie bags from Party city. 

  1. What is her expected total cost? $______
  2. What is the expected number of goodie bags which will be sold to Mary after the party? _______goodie bags
  3. What is her probability of running out of goodie bags (i.e., stock-out probability)? ______ %
  4. What proportion of goodie bags given to the kids can she expect will be coming from the ones bought at Party City (i.e., fill rate)?  ______%
  5. What is the probability that her total cost for the party (YCA plus goodie bags) is above $400? _____%

E. Assume that the number of kids Dorothee quotes to the YCA is also the number of goodie bags she buys at Party City one week before the party.    What should this number be if Dorothee wishes to minimize her expected total cost, that is, the expected total cost of the party (YCA plus goodie bags)?  ______kids

F. How many goodie bags should Dorothee buy at Party City to make sure there is less than a 10% chance that she needs to run to the nearest store to buy gadgets for the missing goodie bags?  ______goodie bags

G. How much would Dorothee expect to spend on the party if she could see the future, that is, if she could predict for sure how many kids will come to the party? $________

H. Calculate the expected mismatch cost if Dorothee communicates a number of 17 kids coming to the party and purchases 17 goodie bags at Party City.  $______

  • Research Topic Question 
    • The way I would approach the research topic of relating to young children and violent games is by developing specific research questions about young children and their relationship to violent video games. Conduct a thorough literature review to understand existing research on the topic. This will help you identify gaps in the literature and refine your research questions. Identify a sample of young children (e.g., ages 6-12) and their parents or guardians. Consider factors such as age, gender, and gaming experience when selecting participants. Obtain informed consent from parents or legal guardians to involve their children in the study. Conduct interviews or focus groups separately with children and parents to capture their unique perspectives. Use qualitative data collection methods, such as semi-structured interviews, focus groups, and participant observations, to gather rich and detailed information. Ensure that ethical guidelines are followed throughout the research process, especially when involving children. This includes obtaining informed consent, maintaining confidentiality, and protecting the well-being of participants.
  • How many pages? 
    • 5-7
    • Part 3 is a separate paper which is 3 pages.
    • In total 10 pages 
  • References?
    • 10  references all 
    • APA Style
    • For purposes of this assignment, please select 10–12 articles obtained from scholarly journals that are related to your topic area. Focus on articles that examine those variables or issues that you are studying. What does the previous research say about your topic? Be sure to examine the most current literature available. For each article, you will a) state the hypothesis or research question being posed; b) describe the methodology that is being employed; c) summarize the main points/key findings, and d) identify the limitations of the research. Once you complete a review of each article, it is necessary to provide a synthesis of the material. In your synthesis, you will a) summarize the main pts that will provide a background for your study; b) discuss the themes or similarities in the studies and note any differences; and c) note how your proposed study will “fit” into the existing knowledge base. In the review of the literature, pay attention to the presence or absence of diversity characteristics within each of the studies utilized. Part 2 should be approximately 5– 7 pages in length, 12-point font, double spaced, APA style. Please be sure to include a bibliography at the end of Part 2 in APA format (see the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 7th ed., for assistance). 
    • Research Proposal, Part 3 (Methodology/Final Product): Please provide an overview of how you would conduct this study (method). Please note: You are not actually conducting this study; you are merely proposing it. Include a description of the research design, the variables utilized and how you will measure them, procedures for safeguarding the participants of your study, the method by which you will obtain a sample and collect data, and the limitations of your study. The Method section of Part 3 should be approximately 3–4 pages in length, 12-point font, double spaced, APA style. Once you have completed this, add Part 1 and Part 2 to Part 3 and submit it as a final product. You should make revisions to Part 1 and Part 2 and submit them when you submit Part 3. Please pay attention to my feedback on Part 1 and Part 2 and submit the revised versions with Part 3. This assignment is due prior to the start of the Live Session in Week 14. The grade for Part 3 is based on Parts 1–3. Part 3 is worth 100 pts (25% of your final grade).
