the ratio of students who dont own a computr to those that do is 2 to 1 how many students own thier own computer
207860
10 own their own computer... if the ratio is 2:1 in favor of the one´s that don´t have it, then 20 don´t have computer, 10 do have it. 20 + 10 = 30 students.

Just tell him that you would have to reduce his time on the computer if he doesn't get a specified level of grades... Take away each of his luxury item if he doesn't achieve the Grades...This is slow and not too hard on the Kid and it ensures performance too.

the ratio of girls to total people is 4:9. and boys to total people is 5:9. which you can write as a fraction    4/9 of all the people are girls. and if theres 45 people, then 4/9 of them are girls and 5/9 of them are guys. so u just multiply then. 4/9 * 45 = 20 and 5/9*20 = 25.

If your teacher is requiring you to have it, they should provide it. Check with your school technology department. If the teacher uses it, chances are they will have it and can give it to you.

It's an interesting topic, one to get student's thinking.\n\nI can see a laptop being useful, not the other items.\n\nI plan on going back to school and want to buy a laptop for a few reasons. One, taking notes cramps my hand severely (carpal tunnel acts up with a lot of writing). I can type way faster than I can write, with no hand cramps.  I also need to do research papers, and again, taking notes in the library is time consuming and hand cramping.  \n\nI also plan on taking online classes, and having a laptop will let me log in and take the classes at home, in the library or when I travel.  My desktop computer gets used by other family members, is not portable, so I need my very own computer.\n\nSince all papers need to be typed, a computer of one's own is very, very useful. \n\nYes, you can do all the above without a computer, and when I went through school and got my BA in the years, bc (before computer), I used a typewriter and had to retype things, splice them together, type again, use whiteout, cut and paste using scissors and glue (literally).  The computer makes all that obsolete.\n\nLaptop, definately. \n\nipod?  nah.  just put music on the computer. and buy a computer that plays dvd movies too.\n\ndistracting?  Anything can be distracting, even something like your own thoughts. Distractions will always be available, it's a matter of self-discipline.\n\n\nHave fun with your paper.

They HELP when used responsibly. I teach in higher ed and we are already putting laptops in classrooms and requiring them for distance ed. Additionally PDAs and IPODs are used for RSS feeds and Podcasts. Absolutely will help and enhance homework and the way knowledge is distributed.

Maybe you should try selling it on ebay or going to a local university and seeing if they're interested in buying it.  Universities that offer some sort of computer engineering program tend to purchase older computers to allow students to work with them and experiment.  Good luck!

I would be willing to bet that a very high percentage are in the 6 - 15 year old age range and cannot think for themselves because they spend 60-90 hours a week sitting in front of the computer in mindless chat rooms or playing video games, and have no clue as to how to figure things out on their own.

The level of the student you are asking the question is to be taken into consideration for this....\n\n\ntry this site for your need...\n\n\nhttp://www.futureaccountant.com/probability/\n\n\n\nhttp://www.schoolingkids.com/

Your data set would look like this:\n\n10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 235 235\n\nThe mean is 730/20 = 36.5.\nThe median is (10+20)/2 = 15.\nThe mode is 10.\n\nSo certainly what was stated by the dean isn't a lie.\n\nNow, if I were to calculate, say, the average number of classmates for each person in the statistics classes, there would be 100 9's, 160 19's, and 470 234's.  So the average number of classmates for people taking these classes is approximately 113,920/730 = 156.05.  The median is 234 and the mode is also 234.  So the newspaper isn't really lying either.\n\nI guess you can say that they are looking at this from two different perspecitves, so in that sense, there are two truths.
