Answer:

Napoleon’s actions went against Enlightenment principles because he:

1. Ruled absolutely

2. Crowned himself emperor

3. Restricted freedom of the press

Explanation:

<em>1. Ruled absolutely</em>

The first democratic values were introduced during the age of Enlightenment. Absolutism (rule of one) as type of governance is opposite to democracy (rule of the people).

<em>2. Crowned himself emperor </em>

The fact that Napoleon crowned himself as an emperor goes against the principles of Enlightenment, because according to the Social Contract Theory (Locke and Rousseau) the people have to give agreement for the political developments of such a scale.

<em>3. Restricted freedom of the press.  </em>

Freedom of speech is one of the core ideas of the Enlightenment and restriction of press goes directly against this principle.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Set target for a statistically significant improvement compared to the current value.

Explanation:

For programs that are innovative, address rare health problems, or are highly tailored to the location a target of value of a statistically significant improvement compared to the current value is set. It is appropriate when there is credible data source and policy makers need to be convinced on an investment that is worthwhile. Also, change can happen anytime and planners must be able to set an argument that greater change will most likely occur by chance alone. The Z-test is used to determine the amount of change that is statistically significant. Very often, the significance level is set at p= 0.05 which implies that the probability of reaching the target by chance alone is 5% or less than 5 in 100 which translates to a Z-score of 1.96 which is used to estimate the target value.

The U.S. Constitution was utterly unique in its time because of the following: the President could initiate a tax to maintain a standing military, of the idea that the President was an elected leader of a separate branch of government and the element of checks and balances.

The United States Constitution was signed on September 17, 1787, during the Constitutional Convention in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After many sessions and discussions, the delegates approved the Constitution that was very modern by its time. It included the division of powers between the three branches of the federal government and none could be above the other. The branches were the legislative branch (the US Congress), the Judicial branch (the Supreme Court), and the executive branch (the President). That is why they also invented the system of checks and balances.
