Please check out this video that shows the calculation of frequency distribution in Excel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Giewd9yH4q0

1. Use the Public Perceptions data set available in the Module 3 [4 points].

Make a frequency distribution of the variable Cutting Property Taxes (Cuttax). What percentage of residents state that cutting property taxes is very important (3)?

2. Consider the following values: 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 13, 16, and 18. Calculate the standard deviation. Also, please explain what the standard deviation is, and provide any comments/information related to “standard deviation” that you want to share with your classmates [4 points].

You must start a thread before you can read and reply to other threads

For your individual assignment, please respond fully to the following 2 questions. Be sure and cite in your separate bibliography page. Please paste the questions in the body of your paper and then respond.

1. Define the levels (or scales) of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval levels) AND provide an example of each [4 points].

2. Please explain “central tendency” as describing “mean”, “median”, and “mode”. Please discuss why it is important to know in statistics and explain how to calculate each value. If necessary, you can use examples [3 points].

3. Although computer software is used to calculate statistics, some students find that hand calculation furthers their conceptual understanding. Consider the following values: 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 13, 16, and 18. Calculate the mean, median, and mode. Please use Excel to calculate the above statistics and verify them using the computer. (To practice, you can make up your own data, too.) (Please check “Useful resources for individual assignment 1” below before answering this question) [3 points].

If you use services such as GoogleTM, Office 365, and Dropbox, you are operating in the cloud. We chose such services because they are free or can be used at a low cost. The cloud allows us to store many of our files without fear of loss, provides us access to common office applications, and allows us to use email from anywhere we have access to the Internet. As individuals, we decide to use these cloud services based on our own needs and personal budgets. The federal government has taken steps to move government operations to the cloud. In fact, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) developed a strategy to accelerate the adoption of cloud-based solutions in the federal government (Kent, 2019).

Imagine that you work in the information technology department of a federal organization that processes American citizens’ financial and personally identifiable data. Your organization is intent on adopting a cloud service solution that conforms to the OPM federal strategy. Today your supervisor approached you and tasked you with developing a presentation that will be used to advise your senior leaders on whether they should maintain an in-house information technology infrastructure or outsource the service to a cloud service provider.

Create a 15 slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation to showcase your proposal.

Include the following in your presentation:

1. Identify 3 cloud service providers.
2. Compare and contrast the services of each provider.
3. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of moving your organizations processes and data to the cloud.
4. Provide a recommendation to maintain an in-house IT solution or move to a cloud environment. Justify your recommendation.

ALong with other reference, also use the below reference.

Reference:

Kent, S. (2019). Federal cloud computing strategy (June 24, 2019). Office of Management and Budget.

The United States has approximately 18 million living veterans that rely on services provided through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). It is no secret that the VA has experienced many problems related to the medical care of veterans, significant time delays in addressing disability compensation, and processing of VA home loans. Additionally, the VA manages personally identifiable information, financial, and medical information for millions of military veterans.

Respond to the following:

1. What would you advise senior VA executives concerning the adoption of cloud computing? Why?
2. Describe how cloud services can help the VA become more efficient in processing medical information to support patient care.
3. What benefit will the cloud service provide over in-house information technology services that are not meeting the needs of the millions of veterans?
