Answer:

E. None of the above

Explanation:

The correct answer is none of the above.

In the population of the entire US, you get a high percentage of the money divided among very few people, and most of them are in the lower-middle classes.

The same happens in the population of baseball players(there are the Mike Trout's and Alex Rodrigues' but most of them are near the league minimum or lower than that).

Insurance salespeople, the same thing. Very few are succesful, and a way higher percentage of them fails. If it as a normal distribution, the percentage of people that got high salary would be the same as those who get low.

Answer: They led to larger urban cores that used professional armies to increase their territory and enslave people.

Explanation:

Trade generally brings about wealth and this was the case for West African societies as a result of interactions with the Muslim traders who crossed the Sahara to trade with them.

As a result of the gains from trade, wealthy urban cores and cities were formed such as Timbuktu, Gao and Agadez . The wealth the rulers of these cities acquired enabled them to use professional armies to conquer more territory.

Indeed one of the richest men in history, Mansa Musa ruled over an empire that became so rich due to trade in his territory.

A ball is thrown into the air at a velocity of 44 feet per second. Its height in feet, h after t seconds is represented by the e
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

0.447 sec

Explanation:

velocity = distance/ time

distance 'h' is a function of time 't' given by

h = 12t^{2} + 44t + 16

⇒ differentiating equation

⇒ velocity = \frac{dh}{dt} = 24t + 44

⇒ acceleration = \frac{d^{2}h }{dt^{2} } = 24 \frac{ft}{sec^{2} }

deceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/sec^{2} =  - 9.8 x 3.281 = - 32.154 ft/ sec^{2}

Net deceleration = 24 - 32.154 = - 8.15 ft/ sec^{2}

at maximum height v = 0

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2ah

⇒  0 = 44^{2} + 2 (-8.15)h

⇒ h = 118.72 ft⇒

118.72 = 12t^{2} + 44t + 16

⇒ 12t^{2} +44t - 102.72 = 0

⇒  t = -44 ± \sqrt{44^{2} - 4(12)(102.72) }     / (2 x 12)

t = 0.447 sec

A psychologist conducted a study at her home during an annual activity of children wearing masks and going door-to-door receivin
klasskru [66]

Graph is attached.

Answer:

a) The number of children who took extra candy can be said to be the operational definition of the dependent variable here.

(The dependent variable is defined as the variable that is tested by the experimenter. The outcome of dependent variable depends on the independent variable).

b) The psychologist hypotheses are :

H1 : The children would take more candy when they were alone.

H2: The children would take more candy when they were masked.

The data does not in anyway support the hypothesis 1 of the psychologist because from the graph the percentage of children who took candy when alone was low.

The data fully supports the hypothesis 2. From the graph we could denote the percentage of children who colected additional candy when masked was higher.

c) The findings cannot be generalized to all children because only children from the psychologist's neighborhood was used in the experiment.

d) This study is not a naturalistic behaviour because the psychologist is manipulating a variable. Therefore we cannot call this study a naturalistic behaviour.

e) Modeling: Here the children's behaviour may be influenced because they may try to imitate what other children did. A child may take additional candy because another chid took additional candy.

Deindividuation: In this case, the children may feel a loss of identity or anonymous because they are in group. They may take extra candy because they feel anonymous.

From the graph, we could see the percentage of children in group who took extra candy was higher than the percentage of chidren alone who took extra candy.

Lawrence Kohlberg’s preconventional stage: A child's behaviour may be influenced by his self interest to gain reward. This may make the child not collect extra candy.

This Lawrence Kohlberg’s preconventional stage may also influence the behaviour of the children as the children may also be afraid of punishment, which may result in them not collecting extra candy
