Mr. palmer does an experiment to investigate the effects of distractions on studying and learning. he gives each participant a line with 10 words to memorize in 5 minutes. some of the participants are interrupted during the 5 minutes with text messages from friends. the graph shows the number of words remembered after 5 minutes and the number of text messages sent to the participants as distractions.

would a person remember if he or she is distracted by 7 text messages?

words

5 words.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph that shows the number of words remembered after 5 minutes and the number of text messages sent to the participants as distractions. We are asked to find the number of words learned by a student, if he or she is distracted by 7 text messages.

We can see that x-axis represents number of sent text messages and y-axis represents number of words learned by a student.

To find the number of words learned by a student, when student is distracted by 7 text messages, we need to find the y-coordinate corresponding to on the given line.

We can see that the value of y is 5 at , therefore, a person will remember 5 words, if he or she is distracted by 7 text messages.

i found the life tables for the year 2012. 

life table of males at age 30. probability of dying between ages x and x+1

total population:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001030

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001061

males:

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001399

non hispanic white population

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001116

non hispanic white males

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001503

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
