Some of the world’s worst mistakes are events that have happened multiple times, but instead of learning from it, we have chosen to forget about it, and we have had to rehash some horrific times. One time in which we have relived history is when both of the world wars happened. World War…

Due to the highly religious setting in The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne, many of the mistakes made by the characters were categorized as sins. In seventeenth century Boston, the Puritans viewed any misconduct as severe sins. Therefore, Hester Prynne’s act of adultery spoiled her reputation, with no…

During my fieldwork process I learned a lot about my student, Sedaya. Over a six-week period I enjoyed our time together learning her interests and dislikes. One thing I noticed during my fieldwork is Sedaya’s memorizing abilities and ability to answer questions clearly. While completing her homework, she responded to basic questions both verbally and with the aid of her iPad. Similarly, Sedaya is kind and polite in social situations. Whether it’s a nurse, teacher, or another student, she’s…

temperature is 160C our density is 0.998 in other hand temperature is 19.00C and density is 0.9972.Random errors in this particle are measuring the water on volumetric pipette. Random errors are minimized by taking more data and it can be reduced by averaging the data which we collect by add them all and divided by the total number (to overcome the random error we take average).

while both are in landline and cellphone frames. Gallup uses its weight to final its samples and to match the national geographic's of each country.
