And I started to play. It was so beautiful. I was so caught up in how lovely I looked that at first I didn’t worry how I would sound. So it was a surprise to me when I hit the first wrong note and I realized something didn’t sound quite right. And then I hit another and another followed that. A chill started at the top of my head and began to trickle down. Yet I couldn’t stop playing, as though my hands were bewitched. I kept thinking my fingers would adjust themselves back, like a train switching to the right track. I played this strange jumble through two repeats, the sour notes staying with me all the way to the end. What effect do these descriptions have over the course of the paragraph?

Ah Fo is a student who wishes to get knowledge of everything. He encountered the Magician and rescued him from the evil magician. In gratitude for the rescue, the Magician gave him three brass pennies that will help bring his wishes to come true.

The sheep tell the difference between a stranger and the Good Shepherd by .

Answers

Answer:

The sheep tell the difference between a stranger and the Good Shepherd by his voice.

Explanation:

The parable of the Good Shepherd and his sheep is seen in the book of John chapter 10 in the New Testament of the Holy Bible. This parable was used by Christ to talk about the believers/ born-again Christians and those who are not. He used this parable to give an example of how a good Christian is supposed to live and follow in the steps of his master.

John chapter 10:1-18 talks about the parable of the Good Shepherd and his sheep who recognize their master's voice. Verse 3-5 says "The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice".

If a variable X is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 8, what is the mean value of X, if 0.3413 of the values of X is greater than 58?

Answers

Answer:

55

Explanation:

The z score is a score used in statistics to determine how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean.it is given by the formula:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\ Where\ \mu \ is\ the\ mean, x\ is\ the\ raw\ score\ and\ \sigma\ is\ the\ standard\ deviation[/tex]

Given that:  

σ = 8, P(z > 58) = 0.3413, x > 58/ Hence:

P(z < 58) = 1 - P(z > 58) =  1 - 0.3413 = 0.6587

P(z < 58) = 0.6587

From the normal distribution table, P(z < 58) = 0.6587 corresponds with a z score of 0.41

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\ \\0.41=\frac{58-\mu}{8}\\\\Cross-multiplying:\\\\58-\mu=3.28\\\\\mu=58-3,28\\\\\mu=54.72[/tex]

C. Mrs. White's crying when she realizes her son has not come back
from the dead
D. Mrs. White's assurance that Mr. White might win the next game of
chess

Answers

The sergeant-major's warning not to wish on the monkey's paw is a clear example of foreshadowing.

Foreshadowing is a literary device where an author provides some events that seem to warn about future scenes. In other words, foreshadowing is when certain events of a story seem to hint at a future event.

The short story "The Monkey's Paw" was written by W. W. Jacobs, about a talisman capable of making wishes come true. In the story, a soldier returning from India brought a talisman, a monkey's paw, believed to be a wish granter. He gave the paw to his friend Mr. White who wanted to try out whether the wishes actually are granted. But the sergeant-major warned them not to try out, stating "Wish for something sensible." This scene is clearly an example of foreshadowing for the scenes that the Whites will be faced with.

While we understand that foreshadowing is like the presence of some hints about what will happen in the near future, it also provides suspense in a story. Thus, option B is clearly an example of foreshadowing in the short story.
