There is little doubt public education in the United States is under intense scrutiny from the American public in recent years. In Mississippi, years of negative student outcomes have created a great deal of negative publicity for the state’s public schools. It is important for educators, whether at the district level, research level, or policymaking level, to continue to study available data to identify areas of weakness with the realm of education and work collaboratively to remedy those…
A total of four hypotheses were examined using the following variables: feelings of tension and anxiety before and after watching a video in which a news story covered a student going to a college campus with the intent of harming people, perceived threat while watching the video, perceived threat while watching similar news coverages, the number of hours a day spent consuming news, and participant gender. First, to test the hypothesis that feelings of tension and anxiety will be higher after…
related. To find out exactly how related they were I ran a correlation function. The result was very convincing at 0.695. The high correlation shows a strong relationship between winning games and yards leading to scores percentages. At 48.3%, the coefficient of determination explains for almost half of the win percentage. These results are very convincing and…
GENDER When comparing gender, the connection between conscientiousness and academic performance is fully facilitated by effort. Females have higher levels of conscientiousness and academic performance when compared to males (Berings, De Feyter, Van den Broeck, Brebels, & Proost, 2013). Therefore, females study more in comparison to their male peers and can generally be described as being more organised, disciplined and motivated to achieve. These vital traits of conscientiousness result in high…
Abstract The aim of the study is to investigate the relationship between extraversion and self-esteem. A total of seventy-one undergraduate psychology students from a private university were recruited for this study. The participants were asked to fill up two questionnaires in regards to extraversion and self-esteem which were the Big Five Inventory (BFI) and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. The relationship between the two variables was statistically analyzed using the Pearson’s r correlational…
After data collection, the study utilized Pearson’s Correlation Coefficients to measure the collected data and determine the following correlation in support of the hypothesis: there is a positive correlation between poor bison management practices in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, poor elk management practices in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem of Montana, and the spread of brucellosis in both wildlife and livestock during the past two decades; preventing bison from full population…
the topic. This is the minimal requirements put up by the council because it helps people with reasoning and quicker problem solving. The Pascal’s triangle in the mathematical word is a simple representation of numbers in an array and is a binomial coefficient. The Pascal’s theorem is said to be discovered by Bailey Pascal. Whereas historians…
1. One of the goals of the Obama administration is to ensure all Americans have health insurance. A survey to determine how many Americans have health insurance is an example of (____). -(Binomial) 2. Use the binomial coefficient to determine the number of ways out of a hospital staff of 5 nurses, 2 nurses can be chosen to service the maternity ward. The way solve this question is 1x2x3x4x5 / (1x2x3) (1x2) That’s mean 120/12 The Answer is 10 3. In a clinical trial, 10 subjects were to…
Univariate Binomial Tree Cox, Ross and Rubinstein (1979) developed the binomial option pricing model which converges to the Black-Scholes formula in the continuous limit and demonstrates the advantage in valuing American-style options. The model approximates the behavior of an asset price by the upward and downward changes in the asset price over a particular interval of time. As shown in Figure 1, an asset with a current price of S follows a multiplicative binomial process in which the…
assists per game and 3-point percentage. Since LeBron James and Michael Jordan start their professional NBA almost at the same age, so I decided to compare the first nine years. The methods used to calculate the statistics were linear regression and binomial distribution. Linear Regression was used determine the relationship between LeBron James production and his salary. I used statistics to determine the probability of LeBron James making 8 field goals in a row. Also, I designed a C program…
