Answer:
The standard deviation is 4.83 inches.
Explanation:
We are given that the average yearly snowfall in Chillyville is Normally distributed with a mean of 55 inches.
The snowfall in Chillyville exceeds 60 inches in 15% of the years, we have to find the standard deviation.
Let X = <u><em>the average yearly snowfall in Chillyville</em></u>.
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z =
~ N(0,1)
where,
= mean amount of rainfall = 55 inches
= standard deviation
Now, it is stated that the snowfall in Chillyville exceeds 60 inches in 15% of the years, that means;
P(X > 60 inches) = 0.15
P(
>
) = 0.15
P(Z >
) = 0.15
In the z table, the critical value of z that represents the top 15% of the area is given as 1.0364, that means;
= 4.83 inches
Hence, the standard deviation is 4.83 inches.
Rephrasing and Rewriting to create a term paper is not an example of synthesis.
Answer: Option(a)
<u>Explanation:</u>
Synthesis is defined as the process of combining a group of ideas or facts to get a new concept or theory.
From the options we can explain the example of synthesis;
- Option (b) explains that the color combination of yellow and blue together will result in green.
- Option (c) suggest that the combination of lyrics and music gives a song.
- Option (d) gives the collection of ideas and facts together that results in a conclusion.
Above examples explain the process of synthesis
But option (a) gives that rephrasing and rewriting to create a term paper.
The above two involves making changes in a content or text in paper and thus it is not an example of synthesis.
Answer:
There is some truth to the claim that, "All cities today are world cities". All the emerging cities of Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia are linked to the global economy and, particularly, to the network of world cities, in a variety of ways. But it is also clear that various metropolises fit into the world urban hierarchy at different levels and play very distinctive roles in that wider system. Analysis of urban systems, whether global, national, or regional, from the perspective of geography or sociology, using the old human ecological framework or the newer urban political economy approach, emphasizes power and dominance. Furthermore, one of the key advantages of identifying where places fit into positions in these systems, is that "structural isomorphism" will lead to similar roles. In other words, if two cites are at or about the same level in the urban hierarchy, we should logically expect them to follow broadly similar dynamics. In the 1970s and 1980s, at a time when the neo-Marxist world-system scholarship was blossoming, an "urbanization in the world-economy" approach emerged. This perspective took its initial impetus from Manuel Castells’ suggestion that we should consider the growth of third world cities as “dependent urbanization.
