Answer: 0.001731

Explanation:

To solve the variance, we have to calculate the mean first. This will be the addition of the sticks given which is then divided by 5. This will be:

= (0.084 + 0.087 + 0.032 + 0.015 + 0.115) / 5

= 0.0666

We then calculate the variance as shown below:

Variance = [(0.084 - 0.0666)² + (0.087 - 0.0666)² + (0.032 - 0.0666)² + (0.015 - 0.0666)² + (0.115 - 0.0666)²] / 5 - 1

= [0.000303 + 0.000416 + 0.001197 + 0.002663 + 0.002343] / 4

Variance = 0.001731

The keyword in this statement is "most" because not all businesses in the United States are owned by the people, some are government owned; the mixture of this ownership in an economy is what defines that economy as a "mixed economy."

How does a policy manual help an organization
eimsori [14]
It helps an organization because that is their rules and regulations and standards that employers have to follow. An example of how the manual can help an organization is if you purchase something and the policy says you have 30 days to return it and you return it 31 days later they will not be able to take it because that is one of their rules.

While Sally is still a minor, she wrecks the car she purchased from Bally. Can she still disaffirm the contract? Must she return
patriot [66]

Answer:

If Sally is still a minor, she can disaffirm the contract and return the car to Bally. Contracts involving minors are not legally binding unless the minor reaffirms them once he/she is an adult or a parent also signs the contract.

In this case, Sally's contract is voidable by her and if she chooses to, she is able to void it. What happens after she returns the car depends on the state. Some state laws force Bally to return the money even if the car is wrecked. Other states have laws that require minors to return goods in good shape, and in this case, would allow Bally to deduct any repair expenses from the money he needs to return to Sally.
