Answer:

7.6997

Explanation:

Given :

X : ____7 ____ 15 ____ 28

P(X) __0.2 ___0.49 ____?

ΣP(x) = 1

0.2 + 0.49 + a = 1

a = 1 - 0.69

a = 0.31

Standard deviation = sqrt(Variance(x))

Variance = Var(X) = Σx²p(x) - E(x)²

E(x) = Σx*p(x) = (7*0.2) + (15*0.49) + (28*0.31) =

E(x) = 17.43

Σx²p(x) = (7^2 * 0.2) + (15^2 * 0.49) + (28^2 * 0.31) = 363.09

Var(X) = Σx²p(x) - E(x)²

Var(X) = 363.09 - 17.43^2

Var(X) = 363.09 - 303.8049

Var(X) = 59.2851

Standard deviation = sqrt(59.2851)

Standard deviation = 7.6996818

= 7.6997

How might you explain the different reasons why you may forget the process of classical conditioning if you were tested on it to
jonny [76]
<span>There are a few ways that may cause me to forget the process of classical conditioning. First, I could be having retroactive interference. In this case, the newer information that I am just now learning about could be interfering with my retrieval of previous information. Second, I could be experiencing decay. This would mean that it’s been so long since I’ve learned about classical conditioning that my memory trace has not been used and I’ve started to forget about it. Finally, I also could simply have failed to process the memory in a process known as encoding failure. (One more option is that I am suffering from retrograde amnesia, but that is unlikely).</span>

In which of the following Schools do people learn special trades and skills
monitta
A Vocational and Trade school is where students are trained in order to focus on developing skills specific to an occupation. 

Vocational and Trade schools are distinguised from the usual tertiary level of education like courses offered in Universitiesa and Colleges. This is due to the fact that these schools focus more on an occupation-specific set of skills rather than focusing on the theories behind it. Simply speaking, vocational and trade schools are for developing technical skills only. Rather than pursuing a professional discipline, these schools focus only on one trade for a specific job. The aim of the students of a Vocational school is to directly enter into the workforce rather than preparing for tertiary education, in terms of it being compared to secondary education. 

After finishing vocational schools, the graduates enter the work force directly and labelled as blue-collared workers. These refer to performing manual labor as opposed to white-collared jobs which is associated with office work or professional occupations.
