  • 2001 Toyota RAV4 is getting bad gas mileage.?

    It has the 2.0l inline four, automatic transmission and all time four wheel drive. About 178k well maintained highway miles.

    EPA estimates are 22 mpg city and 27 mpg highway.

    I get about 21 mpg in the city, but I only get about 20 mpg on the highway. I don't drive it super hard to get that poor of mileage. When I'm cruising at about 70mph it's revving around 3k rpms.

    Something wrong here? It's not tire pressure or dirty filter or anything like that. Thanks!

  • How can I summarize this data in EXCEL?

    I have two separate Excel spreadsheets; one has all customers and their information, the other has a random sample of customers from that other sheet.

    For all of the customers in the random sample, I want it to look up their information in the first sheet and summarize it by saying how many are in each category and the percent of the total. For example, city is one and so I want it to tell me how many are in each different city in the random sample group and the percent that live in that city from the total. Another is if they are a senior citizen or not; I want it to say how many are and percent that are from total from the sample.

    Please let me know if you need clarification! Thank you all!

  • I need advice how to apologize.?

    I like this girl and she's really good at photography and she put up an album on fb of some pictures and jokingly I commented on on the album "oh you're just like every other girl with a camera" . She sent me a text saying my comment was rude and demeaning and that she likes photography, and I sent her one back saying I was sorry and explained myself. I didn't hear anything back b/c I'm pretty sure she's not talking to me.

    I did really like her and want to show her I'm sorry, but I havn't know her for very long. Like I was thinking about sending her flowers but that might be a little much since we just met a while ago. Please help with either ideas or things I could say in a message!

    Thanks!

  • Fun SAS problem I need assistance with!?

    The Heart data set contains cardiac and survival information for patients in a hypothetical wellness clinic.

    Data Set Description

    Variable Type Label

    Patient num Patient ID

    Sex num Gender

    Survive char Survive or died

    Shock char Type of shock

    Arterial num Arterial level

    Heart num Heart risk level

    Cardiac num Cardiac level

    Urinary num Urinary level

    Sample Data

    Patient Sex Survive Shock Arterial Heart Cardiac Urinary

    203 1 SURV NONSHOCK 88 95 66 110

    54 1 DIED HYPOVOL 83 183 95 0

    664 2 SURV CARDIO 72 111 332 12

    210 2 DIED BACTER 74 97 369 0

    Some additional descriptions of the data values are:

    Variable Data Values

    SEX 1: Female, and 2: Male

    SURVIVE SURV : SURVIVED

    SHOCK CARDIO: CARDIOGENIC , BACTER: BACTERIAL , NEURO: NEUROLOGICAL

    1. Write a program to read the heart data, define permanent variable labels using LABEL statement and define the data values using PROC FORMAT.

    [NOTE: You may add comments where ever you think it will help others to understand your program easier.]

    (a) Use the SPLIT option to make sure the labels is displayed in two lines.

    For PROC FORMAT:

    (b) Create the LIBRARY library to store your formats.

    (c) In the PROC FORMAT, define values for variables SEX, SURVIVE, SHOCK using the data values provided in the above table. Also define the values for HEART variable as below:

    Low-90: LOW, 91-110: MED, 111-high: HIGH

    (d) In the PROC FORMAT, print the format table using FMTLIB option.

    (e) Set up your system options so that the page no of your output starts with page 1 and include the date when you produced the output so that I can see when you produced the final output.

    (f) Print the data set with labels and formats you defined above, print only observations 5 to 10.

    [NOTE: Program 2 in the following is for Chapter 8. We will not have an additional HW problem for Chapter 8.]

    2. Write a program to read the heart data and use PROC REPORT to generate the following report. On P. 3 using the entire Heart data set. In this program, you must include the PROC FORMAT you did for Program 1 above, and you must set up the page number so that the report starts with Page 1 and include the date in your report so that I know when your report was created.

    Hint: In the PROC REPORT, make sure you do the following in order to create the same report:

    (1) Make sure you add a title statement.

    (2) Make sure you adequately assign the width in the DEFINE statement.

    (3) The report is ordered by SURVIVE, SEX and SHOCK variables. Make sure you use the ORDER in the define statement properly.

    (4) The display variables Survive, Sex, Shock, Heart are left adjusted, and the three analysis variables are right adjusted.

    (5) Use SPACING =3 between two variables.

    (6) The summary statistic for the three numeric variables, Arterial, Cardiac and Urinary is MEAN.

    (7) Use two BREAK statements, one for SURVIVE and one for SEX, and use one RBREAK statement for the overall summary.

    Hint: You can use the example program to help you: prog_chap8_p211(crewdata_Final)_report.sas

  • What is a good way to try and initiate a meeting?

    I'm a guy, there's a girl I met once and became fb friends. We've wrote on each others' walls a couple times but nothing too big. What I know about her I like, but I want to get to know her better; such as on a friend level then see where things go, not for just a hookup. She lives 2 hours away and I was thinking about asking if she wanted to get a drink sometime where she lives.

    What's a good way to try and initiate a meeting with someone you know a little about but not too well and not come off as a creep? And again it's for a "wanting to get to know you better/ lets be better friends" kind of way and not just to fool around. Thanks!

    I took through 3 dimensional calculus but it has been 3 years since I took that class. Virtually all of the material is forgotten but I'm pretty sure I could pick it up quickly.

    Do you know of any good book that may help? Something along the lines of 'Calculus for dummies' and such. Thanks!

  • Where's the vac hose on my Jeep Grand Cherokee V8?

    It's a 1996. The code says running lean which a mechanic suggests is probably a vac leak. Where might this be located and what supplies do I need to fix it?

    Just some background information the Jeep runs ok for the first time but if you turn it off and try to drive it again within a couple hours it runs like crap with a lot of knocking and pinging and not wanting to go and stalls, then after about 4 minutes it runs alright. Vac leak?

  • Why is my Fuel Injection warning light on?

    2006 Suzuki Gixxer 750

    Put a BMC air filter in and it came on about 25% of the time, then put a slip-on on and it was like 50% now it's 100% on all the time.

    Do i just need a power commander? Is this typical for these bikes?
