I believe that morgage option 1 is the best option. There are three elements of the mortgage, and three reasons why I believe this. The first is the interest rate. The second is the if it is fixed or adjusted. The last reason, is the length of the mortgage. I believe that the mortgage option one is the best choice. This is for two coinciding reasons. The first reason is that Mortgage opotion one has one of the lowest interest rates. While it looks like mortgage option two has the lowest mortgage rate, it most likely will not in the future. This is because mortgage option two is an annually adjusted mortgage, which means that the interest rate will most likely increase in the future according to the mortgage consultant. So, mortgage option one and three are the best options. The second and final reason that makes mortgage option one the best choice is the mortgage length. Mortgage option one's length is 30 years. While mortgage option three's is 8 years. While 8 year ssounds like a better length of time, it really is not. At the end of those 8 years whatever has not been paid off on the mortgage has to be paid off immediately. which makes mortgage option one

Imagine us is a startup that offers high definition 3d prenatal ultrasounds for high-end customers. the service process includes four activities that are conducted in the sequence described below. (the time required for each activity is shown in parentheses): activity 1: welcome a patient and explain the procedure. (20 minutes)activity 2: prep the patient (e. g., show them to the room, apply ultrasound gel). (17 minutes) (*your id number represents the amount of time needed to complete this task)activity 3: take images. (5 minutes)activity 4: discuss diagnostic with patient. (20 minutes)at each location there are employees (servers) s1, s2, and s3. the assignment of tasks to servers is the following: s1 does activities 1 and 2.s2 does activity 3.s3 does activity 4.a. what is the capacity of this process (in customers per hour)? b. suppose 3 patients arrive every hour on average. ignoring any “start of day” or “end of day” effects, what are the utilizations of all three servers (%)? c. suppose each activity can be done by any server and any server can do any set of activities. however, each activity is done by only one server. for example, a possible assignment includes: s1 does activity 1, s2 does activity 2, and s3 does activities 3 and 4. of course, the original assignment of servers to activities is also feasible. what is the maximum capacity of the process (in customers per hour)? d. now consider the capacity measures in (c) and (a), what is the percentage change? why can you improve capacity without using additional resources? (there is no free lunch, right? )note: for all hw assignments, show your process of getting the results. only providing the final answers is not acceptable and will get 0%. if necessary, use a separate sheet of paper to show your work.
