State Entitlement Programs Franklin Joiner, director of health, education, and welfare, had just left a meeting with the state's newly elected governor and several of the other recently appointed department heads. One of the governor's campaign promises was to try to halt the rising cost of a certain state entitlement program. In several speeches, the governor indicated that the state of Idaho should allocate funds only to those individuals ranked in the bottom 10% of the state's income distribution. Now the governor wants to know how much one could earn before being disqualified from the program, and he also wants to know the range of incomes for the middle 95% of the state's income distribution. Frank had mentioned in the meeting that he thought incomes in the state could be approximated by a normal distribution and that the mean per capita income was about $33,000 with a standard deviation of nearly $9,000. The governor was expecting a memo in his office by 3:00 PM that afternoon with answers to his questions. Required Tasks: 1. (3 points) Assuming that incomes can be approximated using a normal distribution with the specified mean and standard deviation, calculate the income that cut off the bottom 10% of incomes. Provide your Minitab output here: 2. (3 points) Assuming that incomes can be approximated using a normal distribution with the specified mean and standard deviation, calculate the middle 95% of incomes. Hint: This requires calculating two values. Provide your Minitab output here: 3. (4 points) Write a short memo describing your results and how they were obtained. Your memo should clearly state the income that would disqualify people from the program, as well as the range of incomes in the middle 95% of the state's income distribution. Provide your short, well-written and professional report here.

Stanley is 57 years old and has motor neurone disease (MND). Stanley uses a wheelchair and has limited mobility and speech. A case manager has prepared an individualised support plan for him. You are meeting with Stanley to introduce yourself and confirm the broad details of the individualised plan. The meeting is taking place in his home. Stanley lives with his wife, Mavis. Prior to visiting Stanley you take the time to read his file and the individualised plan that was prepared by Stanley’s case manager. When you arrive, Mavis opens the door and guides you to where Stanley is waiting for you in the living room. Mavis does most of the talking, and discusses Stanley’s MND in quite a lot of detail. Stanley seems withdrawn and says very little. You spend some time introducing yourself, sharing some of your professional background and listening to Mavis speak, and trying to ask Stanley some questions about himself too. You try and establish rapport with Stanley and Mavis. Stanley and Mavis’ home is quite busy and cluttered, and sometimes when Stanley wants to reach an item or complete a task, he is unable to get very close to the bench or table and has to lean out of his wheelchair. The support worker suggests that an aid could be useful to help him reach across to objects. You ask Stanley if he would like to review the draft individualised plan that was prepared with his case manager. Stanley agrees and, together with Mavis, you and Stanley review the plan. You ensure that you have brought two copies of the plan so that Stanley and Mavis each have a copy. The draft plan includes the goals that Stanley developed with his case manager, but the support activities have not been confirmed. Many of the activities focus on supporting Stanley to maintain as much independence as possible and to remain living at home with Mavis. Answer the following questions: Describe two of the active support model practices, that Stanley is being supported by within his individualized treatment plan? Consider the importance of the client’s own strengths and preferences, and the additional impact that organisational protocols may have on skills development. give 30 words only
