Hi,
This is an easy assignment that I don’t have enough time to complete. It is a multi-part question that must be answered in complete, grammatically correct sentences. I will attach a Microsoft Word version of this file that you can view all the questions on and type on. There are some multiple choice problems that correspond to graphs in the attached file. Please let me know if you have any questions. If applicable to the question, please show your calculations. You must document at least one outside source for your essay portion. Thank you.
