Why does the hatchery purposely keep some embryos from developing high intelligence? in brave new world?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>The world controller orders the hatchery to create embryos with different intelligence levels to fit into different sections of society. Alphas require a lot of intelligence to perform complex activities like Bernard's job of overseeing the night-time conditioning of the young. By comparison, the lowest cast, Epsilons, are deprived of oxygen during embryonic formation and given alcohol to ensure they will have very little intelligence and thus be fit for the lowest jobs in society.</span>

For Kohlberg, the Post-Conventional individual is the one who follows their own rules by their own ethical principals. This individuals also think that not all rules must be followed without question. Some theorists think that many people may never reach this level and I agree. Society makes us be influenced by other’s people’s opinions, so it is very hard for an individual to not care about the public perception of themselves, I included.

A section of highway is posted with a 55 mph speed limit. In fact, speeds of cars traveling on this section are normally distrib

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

$z=1.28$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=58 +1.28*5=64.4$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 64.4.

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the velocity of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(58,5)$

Where $\mu=58$ and $\sigma=5$

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

$P(X>a)=0.10$ (a)

$P(X$ (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.90 of the area on the left and 0.1 of the area on the right it's z=1.28. On this case P(Z<1.28)=0.9 and P(z>1.28)=0.1

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

$P(X$

$P(z$

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

$z=1.28$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=58 +1.28*5=64.4$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 64.4.
