The distribution of SAT scores of all college-bound seniors taking the SAT in 2014 was approximately normal with mean μ=1497 and

standard deviation σ=322. A certain test-retake preparation course is designed for students whose SAT scores are in the lower 25%, percent of those who take the test in a given year. What is the maximum SAT score in 2014 that meets the course requirements?

Answer:

1279

Explanation:

We have the mean u = 1497

Standard deviation sd = 322

We find the x distribution using 25%

P(Z<z) = 0.25

Z = -0.675

From here we use the formula for z score

X = z(sd) + u

X = -0.675*322 + 1497

X = -217.35 + 1497

X = 1279.6

Which is approximately 1279

So we conclude that the maximum sat scores in year 2014that meets with the requirements of this course is 1279

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The creation of "designer drugs" is outpacing the ability of society to enact laws to prohibit them.  Many of these substances have negative side effects, ranging from violent behavior to death.

 

40.  Which of the following responses to the problem would best fit the "crime control" philosophy?

a.  Government takes steps to limit the availability of ingredients used in the manufacture of designer drugs.

b.  Design a public awareness campaign to warn potential users of the dangers presented by use of these drugs.

c.  Partner with community leaders to identify underlying social issues promoting the drug subculture.

d.  Pass legislation and increase enforcement efforts to send a message of "zero tolerance" to those who manufacture, sell, and use designer drugs

The answer to the above question is

d.  Pass legislation and increase enforcement efforts to send a message of "zero tolerance" to those who manufacture, sell, and use designer drugs

Explanation:

State governments, naturally provide early response to the domestic issue of designer drug abuse than the federal government through the early banning of synthetic drug use.

State legislation on restricting designer drug use can be defined into three groups including

1. Specific synthetic substance ban

2. Ban on generic language

3. Ban based on the effect a substance has on the body.

It can be clearly demonstrated that legislation which combines this three categories is highly effective in reducing the supply and use of designer drugs.

The diffusion coefficients for species A in metal B are given at two temperatures:
Kruka [31]

Answer:

a) 149 kJ/mol, b) 6.11*10^-11 m^2/s ,c) 2.76*10^-16 m^2/s

Explanation:

Diffusion is governed by Arrhenius equation

D = D_0e^{\frac{-Q_d}{RT} }

I will be using R in the equation instead of k_b as the problem asks for molar activation energy

I will be using

R = 8.314\ J/mol*K

and

°C + 273 = K

here, adjust your precision as neccessary

Since we got 2 difusion coefficients at 2 temperatures alredy, we can simply turn these into 2 linear equations to solve for a) and b) simply by taking logarithm

So:

ln(6.69*10^{-17})=ln(D_0) -\frac{Q_d}{R*(1030+273)}

and

ln(6.56*10^{-16}) = ln(D_0) -\frac{Q_d}{R*(1290+273)}

You might notice that these equations have the form of  

d=y-ax

You can solve this equation system easily using calculator, and you will eventually get

D_0 =6.11*10^{-11}\ m^2/s\\ Q_d=1.49 *10^3\ J/mol

After you got those 2 parameters, the rest is easy, you can just plug them all   including the given temperature of 1180°C into the Arrhenius equation

6.11*10^{-11}e^{\frac{149\ 000}{8.143*(1180+273)}

And you should get D = 2.76*10^-16 m^/s as an answer for c)
