Suppose we were considering the heights of all 18-year-old women in a certain European city. We might put the heights in a (long) list and sort them from smallest to largest.

Let's suppose that there were exactly 500 women on the list. 5% of them would be 25. The height of the woman at position 25 from the top would be called the 25th percentile. 95% would be 475, and the height of the woman at position 475 would be called the 95th percentile.

Then we might say that the 5th to the 95th percentile would include all the women from position 25 through position 475.

Yes, showcase portfolios can serve as assessment portfolios by presenting a curated selection of work that demonstrates a person's skills, knowledge, and experiences. These portfolios can be used to evaluate an individual's capabilities and accomplishments in a particular field or industry. They provide a focused overview of a person's best work for assessment purposes.

A POSS Test (also known as an EEI POSS Test) is a test that many power plants in the United States use to pre-qualify applicants for selected power plant jobs, many of which are offered to applicants without college. Although a POSS Test is used to qualify applicants for "operator" positions, many applicants who are seeking office jobs, landscaping jobs, security jobs, mechanics, welders, meter readers, customer service, etc., take the POSS Test and accept operator positions JUST TO GET THEIR FOOT IN THE DOOR. Then as other positions open within the company, it is usually easier to transfer to other departments....many companies hire from within.

There is a worker shortage for high paying power plant jobs because of the high number of baby boomers who are forced to retire due to old age. Because many power plant jobs can be had without a college degree and with no experience, thousands of applicants often apply. Many applicants fail the POSS Test because they never bother to study or use practice POSS Tests that can be found online.

Important tip to get hired into a power plant: Often a job opening is posted just a few days before the POSS Test is administered, and a few days of practice is not enough time to become familiar with the speed that is required to pass the test. A good tip to pass the POSS test is to be prepared BEFORE a job opening is posted.....practice for a couple of months BEFORE a job is posted, then search for job postings.

If you are very serious about getting into a power plant (which, by the way, some plant workers earn in excess of $70,000 per year), practice, practice, and practice more. Use every sample POSS test that you can find. There are hundreds of applicants who usually apply for power plant positions, but only a small percentage pass the POSS test; and those are usually the applicants who practiced and took it seriously. Getting your foot in the door to an opportunity that could lead to $70K per year is not always easy, but it is worth it for most people without a college degree, and who have never earned that much money before.

POSS is an acronym for Plant Operator Selection System, and POSS Test practice sets, or POSS test samples can be found online by doing a google search.

Applying multiple types of pedagogy creates diversity and spurs interest. This is because singular approaches may not appeal to all learning behaviors. The addition of computers and technology to classrooms is one such as aspect of adopting new approaches to changing demographics.

It is the vast majority of people say 100 people took a test 5th-95th percentile would be the middle 90 people

Congrats. Please ask many more and answer other people's questions!

The Metric System.

Inference means taking information and making an assumption or guess about it. An inferential question is one that can't be answered by the information within the question itself, but that you must make an educated guess.

An example would be a question where you read about a train ride and the passage includes a description of tall buildings outside the windows. An inferential question would be "Was the train traveling through the country or a city?"

The answers to the ACT key train level 5 are not given anywhere online. There are, however, sample questions and answers that can be used to study and prepare for the actual exam on several websites. There are also test-prep classes that you can take and practice-test books that you can buy.

yes, you have to.

20 cents is 2 dimes

20 dollars is 200 dimes.

It will take 2 people 900 minutes or 15 hours to do the job. First you have to find how long it takes 1 person to do a job, then once you have found that, you divide that number by 2 since there are 2 people. 6 hours x 60 minutes in an hour = 360 minutes for 5 people 360 minutes x 5 people = 1800 minutes per person 1800 minutes per person / 2 people working = 900 minutes for them to finish the job.

yea youngy... whats good with it? hmu, aha

cuz a resistor is basically a long wire , that resists some of the charges flowing across it.

it has resistive properties which stops some of the current from flowing from one terminal to the other.

so....as it is just a piece of wire....it doesn't need a +ve or a -ve terminal
