Question:
When patients suffered from hemorrhagic fever, M*A*S*H doctors replaced lost sodium by administering a saline solution intravenously. However, headquarters (HQ) sent a treatment change disallowing the saline solution. With a patient in shock and near death from a disastrously low sodium level, B. J. Hunnicut wanted to administer a low-sodium-concentration saline solution as a last-ditch attempt to save the patient. Colonel Potter looked at B. J. and Hawkeye and summed up the situation. "O.K., let's get this straight. If we go by the new directive from HQ and don't administer saline to replace the sodium, our boy will die for sure. If we try B. J.'s idea, then he may survive, and we'll know how to treat the next two patients who are getting worse. If we try it and he doesn't make it, we're in trouble with HQ and may get court-martialed. I say we have no choice. Let's try it." Structure the doctors' decision. What are their objectives? What risks do they face? Draw a decision tree for their decision.

Please accept my enthusiastic application to solutioninn. I would love the opportunity to be a hardworking, passionate member of your tutoring program. As soon as I read the description of the program, I knew I was a well-qualified candidate for the position.
I have extensive tutoring experience in a variety of fields. I have tutored in English as well as Calculus. I have helped students learn to analyze literature, write essays, understand historical events, and graph parabolas. Your program requires that tutors be able to assist students in multiple subjects, and my experience would allow me to do just that.
You also state in your job posting that you require tutors that can work with students of all ages. As a summer camp counselor, I have experience working with preschool and kindergarten-age students. I have also tutored middle school students in reading, as well as college and high school students. Through these tutoring and counseling positions, I have learned how to best teach each age group.
