What are the consequences of losing the Mandate of Heaven?

Stels [109]

The consequences of losing the mandate of heaven include that if the leader becomes unvirtous and people in the monarchs realm are suffering or starving from certain events seenot as a sign of ruler not being virtous, then being replaced and losing position of the emporer or being in charge is a threat. The mandate of heaven giveso you the authority to rule under the supposed word of God. Without this holy order, the people wouldn't want to follow the Supreme leader because they'd believe that they're not obligatedo tof anymore. Religion was very important at the time that the mandate of heaven was a key document in ruling political states, so it was very effective.

Two heads are better than one. Two is company, three is a crowd. These two sentences are... similar in meaning opposite in meani

Andrew [12]

Answer:

Neither the same nor the opposite

Explanation:

<em>Two heads are better than one</em> is an idiom meaning that it's easier to solve a problem or come up with an idea with the help of another person than alone.

<em>Two is company, three is a crowd </em>is an idiom usually associated with a romantic context. It's used to say that a third person should leave when two people (e.g. lovers) want to be together on their own.

So, when we compare these explanations, we can't say that these two sentences mean the same, nor the opposite.

The following table shows the number of hours some high school students in two towns spend riding the bus each week:

sergeinik [125]

Answer: Part A. The IQR for town A is 4.5 and the IQR for town B is 4.5

Part B. No, they are assymetric.

Explanation: To find the interquatile range (IQR) of each set of data, you can do as follows:

1) Put the number in each set of data in order:

A: 3 4 5 5 6 7 8 9 9 20

B: 3 3 5 5 6 8 8 9 9

2) Find the median of each town data:

For A, the median is the number 6. Coincidently, the same can be said for town B: its median is 6.

3) Find Q1, which is the median (or the middle term) of the left side of the median:

A: 3 4 5 5 (set of numbers to calculate)

B: 3 3 5 5

Now, as both set of number are even, to find the median, we have to calculate the mean of the two central numbers:

For A: Q1 = $\frac{4+5}{2}$ = 4.5

For B: Q1 = $\frac{3+5}{2}$ = 4

4) Find Q3, which is the median of the right side of the first median:

A: 7 9 9 20 (set of numbers to calculate)

B: 8 8 9 9

As before, the median will be the mean:

For A: Q3 = $\frac{9+9}{2}$ = 9

For B: Q3 = $\frac{8+9}{2}$ = 8.5

5) The IQR is the result of a subtraction:

IQR = Q3 - Q1

For A: IQR = 4.5

For B: IQR = 4.5

For the two sets of data the IQR is the same and equals 4.5.

Part B: Box plot is a type of graphic, similar to histogram. To plot it, you need 5 points but for this question, it will be analised just the symmetric aspect. As the graphic is a retangule, to be symmetric, the median or mean has to be in the center of the retangule. In the case of the towns, the box plots are assymetric because the median of each town is closer to the Q1 of each town. In other words, the retangule is not "divided" exactly in half.

Please help me with ap government

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Chaos would happen and one branch will always have more power over the other branch. If they are all together, what is right and what is wrong. Is too much power being used? What laws to make? What actions to make? IF for not these questions perhaps, there would have been only one branch of the government. The executive branch has immense power and can be overpowered as well, but, that does not mean it can do any foolishness it wants. That is why the judicial branch exists and it has specific power, great power, to overrule anything if it is deemed wrong or unconsitituional. The president doesn't necessarily create law either. He writes them into law and may have some power or influence to add in laws he likes or wants. The legislative branch looks over the laws and creates them. The president merely looks over it and signs it. The judical branch also has the power to overrule laws that are unjust or unconstitutional. Together, these three branches make up the government. Without each other, or to be said, as single, the nation would be no more.
