On most clear days, a group of your friends in the Astronomy Department gets together to plan out the astronomicalevents they're going to try observing that night. We'll make the following assumptions about the events.0 There are n events, which for simplicity we'll assume occur in sequence separated by exactly one minute each. Thusevent] occurs at minute j; ifthey don't observe this event at exactly minute j, then they miss out on it0 The sky is mapped according to a oneodimensional coordinate system (measured in degrees from some central baseline);event] will be taking place at coordinate dj, for some integer value dj. The telescope starts at coordinate 0 at minute 0-0 The last event, n, is much more important than the others; so it is required that they observe event n. The Astronomy Department operates a large telescope that can be used for viewing these events. Because it is such acomplex instrument, it can only move at a rate of one degree per minute. Thus they do not expect to be able to observe alln events; they just want to observe as many as possible, limited by the operation ofthe telescope and the requirementthat event n must be observed-We say that a subset S of the events is viewable if it is possible to observe each event] e S at its appointed time j, and thetelescope has adequate time (moving at its maximum of one degree per minute) to move between consecutive events inS.

Assume that to_the_power_of is a function that expects two int parameters and returns the value of the first parameter raised to the power of the second parameter. write a statement that calls to_the_power_of to compute the value of cube_side raised to the power of 3 and that associates this value with cube_volume.

Researchers measured the data speeds for a particular smartphone carrier at 50 airports. the highest speed measured was 78.1 mbps. the complete list of 50 data speeds has a mean of x overbarequals16.11 mbps and a standard deviation of sequals18.65 mbps. a. what is the difference between carrier's highest data speed and the mean of all 50 data speeds? b. how many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]? c. convert the carrier's highest data speed to a z score. d. if we consider data speeds that convert to z scores between minus2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the carrier's highest data speed significant? a. the difference is nothing mbps.
