Absolute deviation

blue Skittles are .498, .488, .542, .526, and .441. The statistics for these numbers are .499 for the mean, .498 for the median, no mode, .0389 for the standard deviation, and .499 ± .0389 for the best answer. The Rf values for the dyes of the green skittles are .621, .455, .628, .590, and .397. The statistics for these numbers are .538 for the mean, .590 for the median, no mode, .105 for the standard deviation, and .538 ± .105 for the best answer. The Rf values for the dyes of the orange Skittles are .284, .271, .321, .275, .222. The statistics for these numbers are .275 for the mean, .275 for the median, no mode, .0354 for the standard deviation, and .275 ± .0354 for the best answer. The Rf values for the blue dye used in the blue Crayola marker are .982, 1.00, 1.00, .981, and 1.00. The statistics for these numbers are…

Satpa(n)th is the representation of Sat (Truth), just as the Supreme Name of Allah, the Ism al-a‘ẓam, embodies the Sat (Truth) and is therefore, referred to by Pir Shams in his Brahm Prakāsh, Sat Shabd (True Word). Above all, the Ginans make a lavish use of the term Sat in conjunction with Gur, i.e. Satgur, which demonstrates that, as the Epitome of the Eternal Truth, the Satguru is able to lead one to the Sat (Truth) – hence, the appellation Satguru, that is, the True Guide, Teacher of Truth,…

I desire an outstanding job because I want an everyday experience of preforming to the best of my abilities. If everyday of that job were the same, I would no longer be challenged to achieve the best work everyday because I would preform the same work everyday. The same goes for my want of a loving family. I look forward to the opportunity to care for and provide for my family each day the absolute best that I can but doing the same tasks each day would quickly grow boring and unchallenging. My…

feels that by devoting life to god, one will get the most out of existence. Rather than living for oneself, the aesthete, or even living for others, the ethical, one must devote fully to god. The relationship that most have with god is through universal ethics that religion dictates. By following these rules, the individual can relate to the Absolute. While the actions that god tells the individual to do might be illogical, Kierkegaard sees faith as illogical. To fully explain, the leap of faith…

There are various symbols for religious imagination and its not common to re-imagine or re-symbolize the traditional concept of God; but its good to try and see God from other peoples points of view, to have an open mind about the understanding of God. Author, Judith Plaskow argues in her story, "Standing Again at Sinai: Judaism from a Feminist Perspective" about the images and numerous metaphors of God. "If identifying God with a particular set of metaphors both limits God and supports a…

Many modern educational philosophies consistently reject the absolute truths of the traditional philosophic teachings of Plato and Aristotle. Thus, these modern philosophies believe that truth is relative and based on the changing opinions of the masses (pragmatism) or the perspectives of each individual (existentialism). Each of these views fails to recognize the absolute truths found in the order and structure of the universe. Many people who consider themselves Christians also believe that…

All living beings have concerns in life such as whether or not they have enough money for gas to get back and forth to work until the next paycheck, or if the power will get shut off due to lack of payment. Man, however, also has spiritual concerns. According to Tillich, “faith is the state of being ultimately concerned” (Smith, 2003). The Ultimate Concern is that which demands the complete surrender of the person who faithfully accepts the Ultimate. Additionally, faith in and surrender to…

faith was of a magnitude that he wrapped his mind at least partially around the divine Warrior and Enemy also being the perfect divine Advocate and Intercessor. This was one more step in peeling back the layers of Job’s faith. His unshakeable confidence in God’s absolute sovereignty undergirded each succeeding declaration in its context. For the past three chapters, Job’s thinking was in the judicial framework. He was about to add another dimension. Sidebar - Is this the end of the discussion?…

Introduction: There is a direct relationship between temperature and pressure in gases. The relationship can be proven by measuring pressure, which is measured with a pressure sensor, and temperature, which is measured with a temperature probe. Two areas remain constant throughout this experiment, which are volume of the gas and the number of molecules the gas itself contains. In this experiment, using the constructed apparatus, an Erlenmeyer flask with an air sample will be placed in four…

The percent error of the calculated percent water and accepted value is 3.36%. The mean of the class data for percent water was 50.8% and the standard deviation was 0.0300. Compared to the class results, my percent water was lower, but very close to the mean. The standard deviation has a low number; hence the data are not as spread out from the mean. One source of error that contributed to this percent error was that the hydrate, MgSO_4, may have been heated too long. This is a random error…
