Write a two to three (2-3) page report in which you:

- Construct a 95% Confidence Interval for the ounces in the bottles.
- Conduct a hypothesis test to verify if the claim that a bottle contains less than sixteen (16) ounces is supported. Clearly state the logic of your test, the calculations, and the conclusion of your test.
- Provide the following discussion based on the conclusion of your test:
- If you conclude that there are less than sixteen (16) ounces in a bottle of soda, speculate on three (3) possible causes. Next, suggest the strategies to avoid the deficit in the future.
Or
- If you conclude that the claim of less soda per bottle is not supported or justified, provide a detailed explanation to your boss about the situation. Include your speculation on the reason(s) behind the claim, and recommend one (1) strategy geared toward mitigating this issue in the future.

Contemporary Issues in Health Care
Deliverable Length: 3-5 Pages
Funding preventative care in the United States has created huge financial challenges. For example, most drinking water contains fluoride for the prevention of tooth decay; however, in implementing this prevention strategy, much financial efforts needed to be made.
It has been greatly advertised by politicians that preventative care saves money; however, in their arguments, neither data nor any scientific evidence was introduced, making this statement more of an opinion than a fact.
For this assignment, you are to discuss evidence-based findings that examine this. An example of an evidence based study that examines preventative care can be found in this article.
For this assignment, consider the following questions:
- What is preventive care? Give examples.
- Does preventive care save money in the health care sector?
- Does preventive care increase the total cost of health care?
- Provide specific instances for each scenario.
- Is there a general rule in terms of the effect that preventative care has on expenditure, or is it purely circumstantial? Explain.
