The document discusses a statistical test about the age of a college student's mother when the student was born. It summarizes that there was not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis that the population mean age was less than 30 years. The alternative hypothesis could not be accepted due to a lack of evidence supporting the claim that the mean age was below 30.

Reconsider the previous problem about the age of a college student
Solution
The conclusion in the question's context is that we fail to reject the null hypothesis
(we didn't reject it, so we couldn't accept the alternative hypothesis) because there is not enough
evidence in this test that can serve as a support to the claim that the population mean of age of
college student's mothers when the student was born was less than 30 years.

Read the article \" Security Controls that Work\" by Dwayne Melancon below write a report that answers the following questions. 4. What metrics can an IT auditor use to assess how an organization is performing in terms of change controls and change management? Why are those metrics particularly useful? Security Controls That Work By Dwayne Melançon, CISA Ask the average IT or security manager what measures his/her organization takes to secure its networks, systems, applications and data, and the answer will most likely involve a combination of traditional perimeter protection solutions (such as firewalls, intrusion detection, antivirus and antispyware) together with patch management, business continuance strategies, and access control methods and policies. All of these measures make sense at first glance, yet the deluge of intrusions, data thefts, worms and other attacks continues unabated, with organizations losing productivity, revenue and customers every year. There are many reasons for this gap in controls and effectiveness. Access controls can be taken only so far before they run into legitimate resistance from employees who find their productivity hampered by the very controls designed to protect it. Traditional perimeter protection and access control are not as effective at blocking attacks from inside organizations as they are at blocking external hackers, which says a lot, since the latter manage to breach thousands of company networks every year. And, as the number and frequency of zero-day attacks continue to grow, the effectiveness of patch management and traditional signature-based intrusion detection, antivirus and antispyware solutions is increasingly in doubt. All of this begs a host of questions: How is it possible to determine whether an organization’s security controls actually work? Of all the hundreds of practices and objectives within Control Objectives for Information and related Technology (COBIT), IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and the other frameworks an organization may implement, which ones are truly the most effective at helping the organization block and respond to attacks—and which ones merely sound good but do not accomplish all that much in practice? Why are some organizations vastly better than others at preventing and responding to attacks? On which controls should auditors focus to verify that the infrastructure is genuinely protected? Come budget approval time, where should the company concentrate its security money, and how can it be demonstrated to senior management that those proposed investments will actually do the job? These are the types of questions the IT Process Institute (ITPI) set out to answer when it was founded in 2000. One of the results of ITPI’s work, the “IT Controls Performance Benchmark Study,”1 proves with empirical evidence that not only are some organizations vastly better than the rest of the pack at preventing and responding to attacks, but also that the difference between these.

Percentage of budget devoted to IT? 2. Which controls were used by almost all high-performing organizations, but were not used by any low- or medium-performers? 3. What three things do high-performing organizations never do? 4. What metrics can an IT auditor use to assess how an organization is performing in terms of change controls and change management?

Solution On chapter 6 of Reinvening Manegement by Julian Birkinshaw, he explains that the recent crisis we suffered was not completly fault of regulaitons or policies in the countries, it was a failure of management as well. Bankers with an incorrect sense of management were looking for opportunities with out caring on the consequences on long term and these people put their interest ahead of the share holders. The role of management is not being seen with good eye after reviewing surveys about this role.

Railroads were big business in the mid to late 1800s in the United States. Explain why railroads were so important to citizens of America at this time. Be sure to include in your answer railroads monopolies and other economic abuses of the railroads (short answer question). Solution Railroads were big business in the mid to late 1800s in the United States. In the mid to late 1800s or in Beginning in the nineteenth century in the United States. Until the late 1800s the federal government encouraged the growth of big business. By the end of the century.A huge system of railroads was developed that to moved goods and people across great distances, facilitated the settlement of large portions of the country, created towns and cities, and unified a nation. The earliest railways in the United States were short, wooden railways. The first locomotive for use on railways was imported from England in 1829. By 1840, railroad track in the United States had reached almost three thousand miles. There were Several other innovations helped foster the growth of railroads between 1840 and 1860. Between 1890 and 1900 another 40,000 miles of track were added to the railroad net; after 1900, still another 60,000 miles of line were built railroads monopolies and other economic abuses of the railroads Developing of railroads rapidly became huge businesses, imperative to the success of American enterprise. The main need of the railroads helped create several other many industries like steel, copper, glass, tools, and oil etc. The need for all of these industries to stay successful was worrisome for railroad owners. The result was a revolution in the organization and scale of enterprise: \"Big business reached greater markets than were ever conceived of before and could benefit from the ability to raise vast amounts of capital that made possible the cost economies of large-scale production\" With these huge amount of capital, the railroad companies were able to finance the political campaigns through whatever and whomever was needed in government. With this control in Washington, there was no way to stop the overwhelming control of this industry over society. So we can say that the entire nation was subject to the whims of this monopoly. We can highlighteconomic abuses of the railroads as follow the railroads acquired control of many facets of the new economy. This body now had the ability to \"squeeze out competitors, force down prices paid for labor and raw materials the railroads companies were charged customers more they get special favors and treatments from National and State government\" . The railroads had all the power, because they controlled all the prices. as we all know that citizens of the west could not survive without the use of the railroads, they were forced to pay whatever rates the raildroad companies set. ..

Radio Station call letters consist of four uppercase letters which may repeat but must begin with either a W or a K. If call letters are assigned at random, what is the probability that the second or third letter is an A but not both? Please provide details and explain. Solution if 2nd letter is A we have 25 other options to fill 3rd place if 3rd letter is A we have 25 other options to fill 2nd place . so total ways posiible when A is 2nd or 3rd letter = 25 + 25 = 50 Total no of ways in which 2nd and 3rd places can be filled = 26 * 26 = 676 so required probability = 50 / 676 = 0.074.
