I REALLY NEED HELP!!!! The Delian League was started as an association of Greek city-states. Each city-state contributed to the defense of all the members. Athens, as the wealthiest and strongest member, quickly took control. When the Persian threat diminished, some city-states wanted to leave the league, but Athens prevented them from withdrawing. Pericles praised Athens as an example for the entire world, but not everyone agreed. Thucydides criticized the Delian League and the way Athens controlled it. Read each quotation aloud. Then answer the questions.

Pericles: “When our work is done, we are in a position to enjoy all kinds of recreation for our spirits. There are ceremonies and contests all year. In our homes we find a beauty and good taste which delight us every day and drive away our cares.”

Thucydides: “…the Athenians were very severe and exacting, and made themselves offensive by applying the screw of necessity [applying economic pressure] to men who were not used to and in fact not disposed for any continuous labor.”

An air-conditioning repair technician claims to complete 67% of repairs in under an hour. A random sample of 31repairs was chosen, and 22 of those were completed in under an hour. Let p = the proportion of the randomsample that were completed in under an hour.The probability that 71% or more of this technician's repairs were completed in under an hour is 0.317. Does thisresult provide convincing evidence against the technician's claim?Yes, it is expected that 22 of the units at most will be repaired in under an hour.Yes, the probability of seeing the sample result is so far from what is expected that the probability of it occurring bychance alone is very unlikely.No, there is a very small chance of seeing the sample result. It is unlikely to occur by chance alone.No, the difference between the sample result and what is expected is not extreme enough. The probability of itoccurring by chance alone is not unlikely.

Does anyone know of COROIKA? Or the history of the squids in Coro? (( You don't have to read any of the following, I'm just talking about the Manga. ))From the Manga "Coroika" we can tell that most of the characters, the squid kids, that are pl ay a ble are around the age of 4 teen to 8 teen. In the Manga most are 4 teen or 6 teen, however. Fun Facts:1) Inklings have no bones. Seriously, I'm not kidding. While they take on more of a human look, they have no bones!2) Inklings CANNOT swim. Despite being an ocean creature, they cannot swim. They prefer shallow water. 3) They can touch water, yes, but not swim, as said above. They can only take in a little bit of water at a time. Yes, they can drink it. -.- Things Nobody Noticed:1) Team Pink Goes To The Beach: There are plenty of times when Team Pink has said they have been doing things like surfing or the such...but then, inklings cannot swim. So, it is practically a t r a p. These kids are 6 teen to 8 teen years old! Inklings cannot even FLOAT! They'd d r o w n instantly if they fell.2) Emperor and Prince: I actually wouldn't have noticed this at first, but, as the Manga shows these two siblings and how close they are...it started bothering me. I noticed how different Emperor acts around Prince versus the other characters. Around Prince and his team, he seems like a caring older brother, a nice person. But, around everyone else, he seems so distant and cold. Why is that? Well, I asked around for theories and headcanons and most people believed it had something to do with him. Like a disor der such as bip olar or maybe depre s sion. I was thinking maybe it had something to do with his home life. Think about this, these are still kids, most of them live with their parents or own an apartment with a roommate. I was thinking of who might have a roommate, I think it would be somebody like Aloha and Diver or Team Blue. But, I couldn't wrap my head around one of those people being Emperor himself. I think he and Prince live at a mansion and they are wealthy. For the simple fact of Laceless being brought into the manga. He is said to be the Gardener's son...Who just randomly pays a gardener on a regular basis to come to their house to fix a huge garden? Yeah, no normal person does that. So, I was thinking, based on the other fact that Emp's team is wearing gold, they are wealthy and come from a wealthy family, so, they would stay with their parents for a little longer, am I right? I think there might be a rift somewhere there though. Parents. As my own, mine are d ivo rced, been d ivo rce d for years, what if this happened to Emperor and he blames his parents? Or what if they're always figh ting and he's stuck in the middle of it? Could this be the reasoning behind his cold nature? Or is he hiding his true self behind his "e g O "?((This is so uh- I just wanna talk about Coroika.)) Kayley has a craft box full of buttons.
