The 1920s were a time of extreme inequality in wealth distribution as a select few achieved the American Dream, with great wealth, while the majority of people maintained working class status, suffering from wealth control in the top one percent. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s, The Great Gatsby gives insight into the lives of the select few, as it follows wealthy characters from lavish parties to expensive restaurants in New York City; the wealth and frivolity of the 1920s upper class fills the novel. In…

Ryan- Hello and welcome to X+Y math news at 9:30!!!! Our top story - during a fight, 5 and 6 divided. The whole problem is negative 5/6k=12. to help find what k= our mathematicians have done the following steps. To solve this problem first they found the multiplicative inverse of -⅚ which is -6/5. next they changed 12 into a fraction which is 12/1 then finally they along with cross cancel. Finally they found the answer which is k=-72/5!!!!! As well as another problem has showed up in…

Wealth inequality is a big parts of Americans lives, the problem is that most of us are oblivious to just how large the margin actually is. The United States has the highest degree of wealth inequality among all industrialized countries: On the Gini coefficient index of wealth equality, the United States ranks 93rd out of 134 countries (Central Intelligence Agency, 2009). We see this in policy when it comes to taxation and redistribution. In an ideal situation, the rich would be taxed at the…

Joseph Stiglitz in his extract concurs that the environment is being stained and the people that are being effected the most are the ones who are underprivileged. He further justifies his idea by giving examples of two industrial tycoons in the world; China and the United States (US). Both, he claims, race against each other on carbon emissions but China has won, although the US contributed more to this issue by almost more than a quarter carbon emissions since 1750. He adds on a global scale…

Let’s say that we have calculated effectiveness (assuming PD=0,8; PA=0,9; PI=0,6; PN=0,4) and it equals to 0,8 x 0,9 x 0,6 x 0,4 =0,1728. Remember, the conditional risk formula? Assuming again, that probability of attack and relative consequences both equal 1,0, conditional risk R= 1,0 x (1 – 0,1728) x 1,0 = 0,8272 ( or we can say that the risk equals 83% if rounded). Is it a lot? It depends on conversion table we will use to present numerical value as adjectival. And what it is mean? For…

In the world there are many labeled groups of people, normal should not be one of them. Unfortunately, cultures still strive to create a “normal”, which can affect how we feel about our minds, our bodies, what we own, and other people around us. That can also tie into how psychology and culture are too reliant on society to define the word normal. In this case, the “emotional and behavioral characteristics of an individual, group, or activity” not the “science that deals with mental processes…

The details of the scores for each of the six factors analyzed in the NASA-TLX questionnaire (Fig. 3) reveal that the use of the robot impacts mostly on the mental demand of the task and on the effort required from the caregiver, while actually the use of the robot increases the temporal demands of the tasks. B. Division of the Caregivers Time Regarding the time spent with personalized attention to users, a total of 862 segments were annotated by the two annotators. Their annotation were in…

Capitalist democracy is a political, economic and social ideology that involves the combination of a democratic political system with a capitalist economic system. It is based on a tripartite arrangement of a private sector-driven market economy based primarily on a democratic policy, economic incentives through free markets, fiscal responsibility and a liberal moral-cultural system which encourages pluralism (Novak, 1982). It is an ideology that supports a capitalist economy that is under the…

One result of random genetic drift and gene substitution is mutant alleles, however the probability that these mutations become fixed in a population is not solely dependent on the advantageous nature of the allele, rather the probability of fixation is determined by the allele frequency, the selective advantage or disadvantage, and the effective population size. The probability of fixation for a particular allele is demonstrated by the equation where probability is equal to 1 minus the…

because I could see that my family and friends didn’t have as much assets as the people we saw on television, whether they were movie stars, professional athletes, or Wall Street businessmen. I always felt that there was something wrong with the distribution of wealth in the United States. Some may say that there is only a wealth gap to speak of because capitalism has done its job. They say that there are people who are much wealthier than others in this country because they used capitalism to…
