The first step in the scientific method is creating a new theory of how something works or offering an amendment to an old theory. Step two is finding a way to test the new theory versus the old one where the old theory is represented in the Null hypothesis and the new one in the Alternative hypothesis. Outside of physics and chemistry, most research is conducted on stochastic (distributional rather than single outcome) variables that are influenced by multiple factors. Write a 300-500-word essay explaining how and why multiple regression might be a valuable tool for researchers in behavioral, social, and medical science.

First, among asexually reproducing species, what main mechanism produces genetic changes from one generation to the next, and how does this mechanism do so? Next, describe in detail three main mechanisms that produce genetic diversity among sexually reproducing species, placing emphasis on how two mechanisms in meiosis do so. Lastly, most eukaryotic organisms reproduce sexually. What is a survival benefit(s) of this mode of reproduction?
Copy your prepared response in the text box provided. Your answer should be around 400 words or 1-2 well-developed paragraphs.

Q25.If the records show that, the probability of failing (with grade F) this course is p, what is the probability that at most 2 students out of 15 fail this course? {Hint: use binomial distribution}
Q26.If the records show that, the probability for a student to get a grade B this course is p, what is the probability that exactly 4 students out of 15 will have a grade B for the course? {Hint: use binomial distribution}
Q27.What is the probability of selecting a grade A student for the first time either in 2nd or 3rd selection?

60 randomly selected students were asked how many siblings were in their family. Let X = the number of pairs of siblings in the student's family. The results are as follows:
| Siblings | Frequency |
|---|---|
| 1 | 13 |
| 2 | 22 |
| 3 | 15 |
| 4 | 6 |
| 5 | 3 |
| 6 | 0 |
| 7 | 1 |
Round your answers to two decimal places.
The mean is:
The median is:
The sample standard deviation is:
The first quartile is:
The third quartile is:
What percent of the respondents have had less than 3 siblings? %
20% of all respondents have had at most how many siblings?

I am trying to create a method in JAVA that takes in an ArrayList<Property> and sorts it by the amount of "reviews" that a property has in increasing order. So the most reviews first.
So each listing in the array would contain a different number of reviews, and they should be sorted based on that value.
It does not need to output the values in anyway, but it should return them so they can be output elsewhere.
Please try to use the stub class below. You can edit it obviously.
//Can sort by increasing (true) or decreasing (false)
public ArrayList<Property> sortByNumReviews(boolean
increasing) {
return null;
}

The manager of alarge hotel on the Riviera in southern France wanted to forecast the monthly vacancy rate (as a percentage) during the peak season. After considering a long list of potential variables, she identified two variables that she believed were most closely related to the vacancy rate: the average daily temperature and the value of the currency in American dollars. She collected data for 23 months.

b. Perform a regression analysis using a second-order model with interaction.
c. Which model fits better? Explain.

I ranked the steam engine as one of the half dozen most important inventions in history – explaining how, even if obsolete nowadays, it was the first engine able to generate power, a technology that revolutionized our ability to do something we could never do before. Choose five other inventions you think would similarly round out the top half dozen, and make a good case as to how each merits the important position you gave it in the progress of science, technology, or society. Think historically and comprehensively.
inventions( Printing press, light bulb, telegraph, the wheel, microscope)
