Answer: She had already surprised everyone by becoming the first black woman in Congress after an upset victory in 1968. Then Shirley Chisholm signed up for work as a census taker in Brooklyn, where she represented a range of struggling neighborhoods.
It was a thankless task; many of the “enumerators” for the 1970 census quit because so many poor black and Hispanic residents refused to answer questions or even open the door.
Their distrust in government ran deep, The Times reported, with some fearing that giving up their personal information would lead to genocide.
Ms. Chisholm, a daughter of immigrants from Barbados who studied American history with the zeal of a woman determined to shape it, understood such sentiments. She also embodied what was needed to bring those New Yorkers into the fold. It wasn’t pontificating. It wasn’t condescending, or scolding; it required the same charm and resolve she showed first as an educator, then as a politician.
“I do not see myself as a lawmaker, an innovator in the field of legislation,” she wrote in her 1970 autobiography, “Unbought and Unbossed.” “America has the laws and the material resources it takes to insure justice for all its people. What it lacks is the heart, the humanity, the Christian love that it would take.”
What is P(2, then 2) when spinning the spinner shown at the right twice?
Answer:
1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of an event = number of required outcomes / number Total possible outcomes
Total number of possible outcomes = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4) = 5
Required outcome = (2) = 1
P(2) = 1 /5
.
Second spin
P(2) = 1 /5
Therefore, the probability of ;
P(2, then 2) = first spin * second spin = 1/5 * 1/5 = 1/25
Which expression has the same value as 16.2 – 8.7?
16.2 + (-8.7)
16.2 - (-8.7)
-8.7 + (-16.2)
8.7 – 16.2
Answer:
16.2 + (-8.7)
Step-by-step explanation:
16.2 + (-8.7) has the same value since the negative and positive will end up being negative.

Step-by-step explanation:
A circular carnival ride has a diameter of 120 ft. Suppose you board a gondola at
the bottom of the circular ride, which is 6 ft above the ground, and rotate 240°
counterclockwise before the ride temporarily stops. How many feet above ground
are you when the ride stops?
Answer:
The height above ground when the ride stops is 96 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The given diameter of the carnival ride, d = 120 ft.
The height of the ride above the ground, h = 6 ft.
The angle through which the ride is rotated, θ = 240° counterclockwise
Therefore, we have;
The radius of the ride, r = d/2
∴ r = 120 ft./2 = 60 ft.
We note that at 180° rotation, the ride is at the highest point, [tex]h_{max}[/tex] = 6 ft. + 120 ft. = 126 ft.
When the ride rotates a further 240° - 180° = 60° the height drops from the maximum point by y = 60 ft. × cos (60°) = 30 ft., such that the final height above ground is therefore;
h = 126 ft. - 30 ft. = 96 ft.
The height above ground when the ride stops, h = 96 ft.

Find whether p = 2 and p=3 are solutions for the equation
7 (p+2)=5 (p+4) ? Justify?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7(p+2)=5(p+4)
By distributive law
The eqn becomes :
7p + 14 = 5p + 20
collecting like terms ;
7p - 5p = 20 - 14
=> 2p = 6 and
:- P = 3 ( dividing both sides by 2)
P= 3 is the only solution to the equation above and it satisfies the equation.

What is the total number of unique triangles with side lengths of 6.5 centimeters, 6 centimeters, and 2.5 centimeters?\
Answer:
Total 9 unique triangles can be formed
Step-by-step explanation:
For triangles to be unique, length of one side can be arranged in 3 different ways
Let us L1, L2 and L3 are the three sides
Now, length of 6.5 cm can be at maximum three positions i.e L1, L2 and L3
Like wise length of 6.0 cm can be at maximum three positions i.e L1, L2 and L3
and length of 2.5 cm can be at maximum three positions i.e L1, L2 and L3
Hence, total ways of making unique triangles are

Answers:
Mean = 69Median = 69Mode = {68, 70}===============================================
Explanations:
To get the mean, you add up all of the values and then you divide by N, where N is the number of values in the list. In this case, you'll divide by N = 8.
Adding up all the values gets you 70+68+70+72+68+66+65+73 = 552. Dividing that over 8 then leads to the arithmetic mean of 552/8 = 69
-------
To find the median, you'll first sort the values from smallest to largest. You should have this set {65, 66, 68, 68, 70, 70, 72, 73} after sorting. Next, cross off the smallest and largest values to end up with this smaller set {66, 68, 68, 70, 70, 72}. We do this so we can locate the middle-most item.
Repeat the process of crossing off the smallest and largest items to get {68, 68, 70, 70}. Do so one more time and we get {68,70}.
The midpoint of those two values is (68+70)/2 = 138/2 = 69. The median is 69. The mean and median may not always be the same value.
--------
The mode is the most frequent value. In this case, we have 68 and 70 show up exactly twice for each unique value. This is the most compared to the other unique values that only show up exactly once.
It is possible to have more than one mode, as long those values are more frequent than the rest. We denote the mode as a set, so the mode is {68, 70}

In order for the data in the table to represent a linear function with a rate of change of +5, what must be the value of a?
a = 3
a = 8
a = 18
a = 33
Answer: C: A=18
Step-by-step explanation: If your are adding 5 every time the x value goes up by one, then you would add 5 to13, henceforth getting 18.
The value of a that completes the table is 18
Rate of change of a functionThe rate of change of a function is expressed in term of the slope.
In order to determine the value of a, we will use the expression below;
Slope = a - 13/4-3 = 23-13/5-3
a-13 = 10/2
a - 13 = 5
Add 13 to both sides
a =5 + 13
a = 18
Hence the value of a that completes the table is 18

I need help finding the area and perimeter you will get plz
Answer:
I couldn't find the area, but the perimeter is 200.
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the answer of 200 perimeter, all you have to do is add up all the sides of the shape.
10+10+25+25+25+15+15+75 = 200.
After adding up the numbers, you are left with a perimeter of 200.
Respuesta:
No pude encontrar el área, pero el perímetro es 200.
Explicación paso a paso:
Para obtener la respuesta de 200 de perímetro, todo lo que tienes que hacer es sumar todos los lados de la forma.
10 + 10 + 25 + 25 + 25 + 15 + 15 + 75 = 200.
Después de sumar los números, te queda un perímetro de 200.

Jane has saved 600 dollars in a college fund. She added money to the account over the next year and at the end of the year, the account had 890 dollars.
!! Write an equation to represent the amount she saved over the year. !!
Answer:
S=End amount-Starting amount
Or(with values)
290=890-600
Step-by-step explanation:
So lets get together all our variables.
First, lets create a variable that shows the amount of money saved over the year.
Lets use S, for savings.
Next, lets take our end value, which was 890, and subtract it from our orgninal value.
This will get you the amount of money that Jane earned over the year. This will look like:
890-600
Or
End value=orginal value.
Now S will be equal to the amount of money Jane earned.
So we can write this as:
S=890-600
Or
Amount of money earned=end value-orginal value

A. 65
OB. 23
C. 60
D. The data set does not contain an outlier.
E. 5
Answer: According to Study Island the answer is 65
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to determine the outlier value, create a box plot.
To create a box plot, order the data.
5, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 15, 19, 21, 23, 25, 26, 26, 27, 29, 30, 32, 32, 35, 40, 60, 65
Find the median, the first quartile (Q1), the third quartile (Q3), and the interquartile range (IQR).
Median = 23
Q1 =
10 + 12
2
= 11
Q3 =
30 + 32
2
= 31
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 31 - 11 = 20
Find the upper and lower fences for the given data.
Lower Fence = Q1 - 1.5 × IQR
= 11 - 1.5 × 20
= -19
Upper Fence = Q3 + 1.5 × IQR
= 31 + 1.5 × 20
= 61
