Julia wonders if people living in the eastern part of her country are more likely to respond favorably to a new advertisement than the people in the western part of her country. She randomly selects 100 people from each of these parts of her country. She finds that 80 people in the eastern part of the country respond favorably, while only 60 people in the western part do. Julia wants to use these results to construct a 95 % confidence interval to estimate the difference in the proportion of all people who would respond favorably in these parts of her country ( eastern western ) (easternwestern)left parenthesis, start text, e, a, s, t, e, r, n, end text, minus, start text, w, e, s, t, e, r, n, end text, right parenthesis. Assume that all of the conditions for inference have been met. Which of the following is a correct 95 % confidence interval based on Julia's samples?
Excerpt from Ronald Reagans Speech on the Air Traffic Controllers Strike, 1981This morning at 7 a.m. the union representing those who man America's air traffic control facilities called a strike. This was the culmination of 7 months of negotiations between the Federal Aviation Administration and the union. At one point in these negotiations agreement was reached and signed by both sides, granting a $40 million increase in salaries and benefits. This is twice what other government employees can expect. It was granted in recognition of the difficulties inherent in the work these people perform. Now, however, the union demands are 17 times what had been agreed to$681 million. This would impose a tax burden on their fellow citizens which is unacceptable.. . . Let me make one thing plain. I respect the right of workers in the private sector to strike. Indeed, as president of my own union, I led the first strike ever called by that union. I guess I'm maybe the first one to ever hold this office who is a lifetime member of an AFL-CIO union. But we cannot compare labor-management relations in the private sector with government. Government cannot close down the assembly line. It has to provide without interruption the protective services which are government's reason for being.. . . I must tell those who fail to report for duty this morning they are in violation of the law, and if they do not report for work within 48 hours, they have forfeited their jobs and will be terminated.Use the excerpt from the speech on the air traffic controllers strike to answer the question.Using the excerpt from Reagan's speech about air traffic controllers, answer (a), (b), and (c).a.)

Excerpt from Ronald Reagans Speech on Supporting the Contras, 1984Central America is a region of great importance to the United States. And it is so close: San Salvador is closer to Houston, Texas, than Houston is to Washington, DC. Central America is America. It's at our doorstep, and it's become the stage for a bold attempt by the Soviet Union, Cuba, and Nicaragua to install communism by force throughout the hemisphere. . . .Right now in El Salvador, Cuban-supported aggression has forced more than 400,000 men, women, and children to flee their homes. And in all of Central America, more than 800,000 have fledmany, if not most, living in unbelievable hardship. Concerns about the prospect of hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing Communist oppression to seek entry into our country are well-founded.What we see in El Salvador is an attempt to destabilize the entire region and eventually move chaos and anarchy toward the American border. . . .Use the excerpt from Reagan's speech on support for the Contras to answer the question.Using Reagans speech on the Contras, answer (a), (b), and (c).a.)

*Please refer to Freud's stages and Defenses for question 1, Carl Jung's Theory of Personality for question 2, and Erikson's Psychosocial Theory for question 3. (All theories are explained in the document attached).* Case StudyManuel is a 14-year-old 8th grader. He is originally from Central America, having gone through two years of school there and immigrating with his family when he was 7. His father is a maintenance man, and his mother has had various cleaning jobs. Manuel is the second oldest of four children. He has an older sister by four years who took care of Manuel and his younger siblings when they moved to the U.S. The family has relocated four times since coming to the States: Florida, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and New Yorkwherever there was potential work. Twice, the family went back to Central America for several months each time. Because of the moves, however, Manuel has not spent more than one full school year in any building or district before he began 8th grade in New York.Manuel was an outgoing child, very inquisitive, and wanted to use his hands a lot. His mother and father indicate that he was building things when he was three or four years old. He was well-liked by both family and community members in Mexico. Manuel was a twin (records do not indicate whether fraternal or not); his brother died of an unknown illness with a high fever when the twins were three. No known medical complications or developmental delays were noted in his medical history.When Manuel went to his first U.S. school, he was unable to speak any English and appeared not to be able to read or write much Spanish. Spanish was the only language spoken at home and in his community. He was placed in an ENL program where teachers found him, again, to be interested in working with his hands (art, puzzles, math manipulatives, etc.) and somewhat reluctant to speak in class. His reading skills in Spanish were at a 1st-grade level when he was in 4th grade. His math skills were at a 3rd-grade level.When Manuel was in the 5th grade, he was in ENL but had been evaluated for special services and was diagnosed as LD/speech impaired. His literacy skills in both Spanish and English continued to lag behind those of his peers, and he became more uncommunicative, distractible, and impulsive in his behavior at school. This continued, and he was expelled from school for aggressive behavior toward peers and teachers.When he began fifth grade, his language skills in English made him appear fluent, but he was reading at a third-grade level in English. He was re-evaluated and, again, seen as learning disabled but also viewed as emotionally disabled. He was unresponsive to limits set, aggressive, and impulsive. He often did not come to school and was cited for truancy (the Administration for Childrens Services had contact with the family on several occasions for educational neglect). He would get into fights in school, and there are questions now about whether he is in a gang or not. Most of the reports said that the fights would start when his peers made fun of him. Currently, in 8th grade, he has all but disappeared during the pandemic and remote learning, but with the return to school, he appears relieved to see his peers. Currently, he appears best able to handle responsibility and focus on his part-time job working in his uncles auto repair shop.Questions: 1.
