8 0

Answer:

2. Jean  a ten-year-old girl in the town of Hankow. Her mother and father work for the YMCA doing relief work. She attends a British school there and hates her teacher, Miss Williams, along with a couple of the other students. In general, Jean feels culturally conflicted, the product of two cultures but not belonging to either one, and she longs for a long-promised trip to America in a couple of years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Homesick is author Jean Fritz's story of her childhood growing up in China in a town called Hankow. While Jean adopts a first-person perspective and includes mostly real-life details from her life, some parts of Homesick are fictionalized in order to add dramatic interest.

The probability that a student uses Smarthinking Online Tutoring on a regular basis is 0.31 . In a group of 21 students, what is
Ivenika [448]

Answer: 0.0241

Step-by-step explanation:

This is solved using the probability distribution formula for random variables where the combination formula for selection is used to determine the probability of these random variables occurring. This formula is denoted by:

P(X=r) = nCr × p^r × q^n-r

Where:

n = number of sampled variable which in this case = 21

r = variable outcome being determined which in this case = 5

p = probability of success of the variable which in this case = 0.31

q= 1- p = 1 - 0.31 = 0.69

P(X=5) = 21C5 × 0.31^5 × 0.69^16

P(X=5) = 0.0241

If a plane can travel 490 miles per hour with the wind and 430 miles per hour against the​ wind, find the speed of the wind and
zavuch27 [327]

let the speed of plane in still air be x and that wind be y

therefore:

x+y=490

x-y=390

next we solve for the values of x and y, first we add the above equations. This will give us:

2x=880

x=880/2

x=440 miles per hour.

substituting the value of x in one of the equations and solving for y we get:

440+y=490

y=490-440

y=50 miles per hour

Scientists studying dolphin echolocation simulate the projection of a bottlenose dolphin's clicking sounds using computer
lina2011 [118]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola with focus at (h, k) and the directrix y = p is given by the following formula:

(y - k)^2 = 4 * f * (x - h)

In this case, the focus is at the origin (0, 0) and the directrix is the line y = -1.3, so the equation representing the cross section of the reflector is:

y^2 = 4 * f * x

  = 4 * (-1.3) * x

  = -5.2x

The depth of the reflector is the distance from the vertex to the directrix. In this case, the vertex is at the origin, so the depth is simply the distance from the origin to the line y = -1.3. Since the directrix is a horizontal line, this distance is simply the absolute value of the y-coordinate of the line, which is 1.3 inches. Therefore, the depth of the reflector is approximately 1.3 inches.
