Answer:

About 13 hard drives

Explanation:

Using the rule of three, if studying the access speed of 40 hard drives gives the maximum estimate error of 15, then we multiply 5 (which is the number of estimates that are sought in a second attempt) by 40 hard drives divided by 15 as maximum estimate number. We get a total of 13.33,<em> therefore we would need an approximate of 13 hard drives to reduce the maximum estimation error to 5.</em>

  40 hard drives   ---- 15  

13.33 hard drives ---- 5

(40 * 5) / 15 = 13.33 hard drives

Answer: B. False Consensus bias

Explanation: False Consensus bias occurs when an individual tends to overestimate the significance of his own personal idea, notion, values, stance believing every other person will concur with his or her decision. It is an attributional type of cognitive bias whereby an individual strongly believes that his idea or opinion is normal and thus other people should also reason, adopt or act with the same idea. When people or group negates their ideas or opinion, they feel such individual or group aren't doing the right thing because they feel their opinion is the 'normal' standard of reasoning.

Why did both the Minoans and MyCENAEANS Both come to depend on trade
3241004551 [841]
There was no unified state that could grow all parts of life equally so they had to depend on trade in order to get goods that they needed from each other since they couldn't develop all parts of production or manufacture. Ones would for example have a developed pottery industry while the others would have mastered making Olive oil so they would trade in order to get what they needed because they couldn't make it on their own.
