said, “The rich get richer; there’s no denying that. They get a lot richer. And the poor get – well, what do they get? Too often, they get ignored. Or we don’t even know who they are.” In today’s economy there has been an issue about the unfair distribution of wealth, which is causing a major gap between the rich and poor. Slowly, the Middle and lower classes are disappearing from the economy while, a small part of people are getting richer. The truth is, the gaps between classes are undeniably…
Through many centuries, equality has been a key feature in the United States. The definition of equality holds many ambiguities. There are various forms of equality and inequality worth discussing. In the United States, with a free-market trade, economic inequality has often been favored by America citizens rather than political inequality. Progressively, the inequality engrained in society over the last three decades helps explain why Americans prefer economic rather than political inequality.…
1. What are the differences between Ultrawide and Standard Monitors? Look, the fundamental difference between an ultrawide monitor and a regular monitor is the aspect ratio. Unlike the standard 16:9 aspect ratio, an ultrawide monitor has a wider 21:9 aspect ratio. This extra screen space helps you to manage multiple windows at the same time with ease. Also, ultrawide monitors are usually bigger than regular displays (29”, 34” and 38”) so you’ll see more data on the screen. The other…
Wealth is portrayed a great deal throughout F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby”. The narrator, Nick, observes how people react to and change their manners when they are exposed to wealth. Every character has different views on money based on how and where they grew up. Jay Gatsby, for example, views becoming rich as the way to winning over Daisy’s heart and finally being with her. He grew up on a poor farm, never experiencing wealth as a child. Because of his need to prove himself to Daisy,…
a. Explain in details about the CBIS. (5 marks | 100-150 words). Based on the case 1 in my opinion the 2 type CBIS that suitable for the case is straregic information system and manegement support system. Strategic information systems (SIS) are information systems that are developed in response to corporate business initiative. They are intended to give competitive advantage to the organization. They may deliver a product or service that is at a lower cost, that is…
William Ward Assignment (no more than 2 pages single-spaced): 1. What does Abelson mean by “Statistics as a principled argument” in your own words? By a principled argument, I believe that Abelson means that there should be a method to statistics. Not necessarily that it should be overly formalized or technical, but one with sound judgement. Abelson argues that good judgement with statistics in social science has been lost because there is considerable focus on null hypothesis testing (Abelson…
(a) Langmuir isotherm model Langmuir isotherm is based on the following assumptions: (a) each surface site can be singly occupied, (b) there are no lateral interactions between adsorbed species, (c) the enthalpy of adsorption is independent of surface coverage and (d) energy of adsorption is constant. The Langmuir isotherm is 2.5…
Equation of trendline 1 calculation: m= rise/run = 12/15 = 0.8 c= 5.9 y= 0.8x + 5.9 Equation of trendline 2 calculation: m= rise/run = 25/45 = 0.5 c= 17.6 y= 0.5x +17.6 Point of intersection: Equate both trendlines to find point of intersection 0.8x + 5.9 = 0.5x + 17.6 x= 39 Since x=39, x2= 9 as x2 represents x in descending order. R2: R2 for trendline 1 = 0.98 Correlation coefficient for trendline 1= 0.96 R2 for trendline 2 = 0.98 Correlation coefficient for trendline 2= -0.99 Ratio…
In the 1940s, Raymond Cattell was able to take Allport’s 4000 traits and boil it down through factor analysis. Factor analysis refers to the mathematical consolidation of commonly appearing variables and the summarising of correlating data. He used factor analysis to eliminate synonyms and the very rare or unused traits (Friedman & Schustack, 2014). Cattell was able to reduce the list of traits from over 4000 to 16 personality variables. This reduction in personality variables was attributed to…
The child that I tested for the PLS-5 Test was a four-year-old girl named Katelyn. Katelyn did pretty well for her chronological age, and she tested into the age equivalence bracket of four to seven years old. She is a very bright girl, although there are some weaker areas that she struggled with. Her focus on the test also varied throughout the test. At the beginning of the test, she was focused on the test and answered the questions quickly, but towards the end of the test session, she was…
