Answer 1

I have removed your previous, identical post. Clearly, no one here can help you, or you would have had a response by now.

Please also note that we don't do students' homework for them. Be sure to go back into your textbook or use a good search engine. http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/

Once YOU have come up with attempted answers to YOUR questions, please re-post and let us know what you think. Then someone here will be happy to comment on your thinking.

Answer 2

I am not asking for anyone to do my homework. These are some general question that I am having a hard time researching. The information I am looking for is not in my text other wise I wouldn't be asking. Thanks

Answer 3

A quick Google search produced these sites that may help you.

Answer 4

In a matter of 8 minutes or less, Ms. Sue was able to find three websites for you, the beginnings of your research. Please learn to use Google and other search engines and library databases well. They will save you LOTS of time. At that hanlib.edu link I gave you above, there's an excellent section to help you learn how to search efficiently.

Answer 5

LOL. These are the exact questions asked in HCA 270, and all the answers are in the TEXT!!!

Answer 6

But did anyone stop and think that for some individuals the text supplied by the UoP does not make very much sense? Personally, I had to hire a tutor due to my learning diability and my inability to understand the complexity of the terms.

Wow, people. What ever happened to helping those that have a hard time helping themselves?

Answer 7

@ AAHCA Grad you shouldn't be so offended! ALL the answers are in the text. Maybe if you would read more carefully you would understand the material.

Answer 8

People on this website are so mean to each other wow.I thought it was to help not to fight about who can and cannot read a text book. Some like myself sometimes have a harder time understanding the text because you do not have a person in front of you explaining everything. What ever happened to helping. If someone is asking for the answers it is not that hard to just say I am sorry but I will not provide you the answers but here are some way that I can help. Then list the websites they can use. No need to be Rude to everyone and try to play who is better than the other. No one is perfect and if you think you are that just means you are a step lower than the rest of us who truly need honest help. Oh and try to put yourself in other peoples shoes b/c some do not just ask for the answers b/c it is the easy way out but b/c they might have tried over and over and has had enough. They just need empathy and a little push hence a website or partial answer to get them where they are going. So do not assume!!!!! :)
