Read the excerpt from The Call of the Wild.

Then an old wolf, gaunt and battle-scarred, came forward. Buck writhed his lips into the preliminary of a snarl, but sniffed noses with him, Whereupon the old wolf sat down, pointed nose at the moon, and broke out the long wolf howl. The others sat down and howled. And now the call came to Buck in unmistakable accents. He, too, sat down and howled. This over, he came out of his angle and the pack crowded around him, sniffing in half-friendly, half-savage manner. The leaders lifted the yelp of the pack and sprang away into the woods. The wolves swung in behind, yelping in chorus. And Buck ran with them, side by side with the wild brother, yelping as he ran.

Which theme does this passage illustrate?

A good leader is strong and intelligent and treats his followers well.
Only the strong survive in the wilderness.
The only way to learn something is to try it.
The desire to fight for power is an instinct.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The passage is centered on the theme of belonging in a certain pack or group. Buck may be a bit different from the others but as Buck tried to be like them and did what they usually do, it gathered the trust of the pack especially the leaders. To belong in a group, one should gain their trust.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One dozen is equal to 12, so you have to multiply 12 by 10 to find the number of potatoes Julio's dad bought.

12 x 10 = 120

after finding the number of potatoes bought, you have to divide the number of potatoes by the number of bags:

120 : 6 = 20

Suppose 56V% of politicians are lawyers. If a random sample of size 787787 is selected, what is the probability that the proportion of politicians who are lawyers will differ from the total politicians proportion by greater than 4%4%

Answers

Answer: 0.0238

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Proportion of politicians are lawyers: p= 0.56

Sample size : n= 787

Let [tex]\hat{p}[/tex] be th sample proportion.

The the probability that the proportion of politicians who are lawyers will differ from the total politicians proportion by greater than 4% will be :-

[tex]P(|\hat{p}-0.56|>0.04)=P(-0.04>\hat{p}-0.56>0.04)=\\\\ P(-0.04+0.56>\hat{p}>0.04+0.56)\\\\=P(0.52>\hat{p}>0.60)\\\\=P(\dfrac{0.52-0.56}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.56(1-0.56)}{787}}}>\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}>\dfrac{0.60-0.56}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.56(1-0.56)}{787}}})\\\\=P(-2.26>z>2.26)\ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}]\\\\=1-P(-2.26<z<2.26)\\\\=1-(2P(Z > 2.26)-1)\ \ \ [P(-z<Z<z)=2P(Z > |z|)-1]\\\ =2-2P(Z > 2.26)\\\\=2-2(0.9881)=0.0238[/tex]

Hence, the required probability = 0.0238

the sum of the speeds of two trains is 716.7 miles per hour if the speed of the first train is 5.3 miles per hour faster than a second train find the speed of each ​

Answers

The best way to solve this is to make an algebraic expression to represent the situation~
If x is the speed of the first train and y is the speed of the second we can make 716.7 = x + y
the first train is 5.3 mph faster so x = y + 5.3
Now we can replace x with our new value to get 716.7 = y + (y+5.3)
Simplify and we get 716.7 = 2y + 5.3
Now all we got to do is simplify this equation, 716.7 - 5.3 = 711.4. Divide by 2 to get 355.7 for the speed of the second train. Since the first train is 5.3 mph faster, we add that to the second trains value and get our answer. The first train is going at 361.7, the second at 355.7
