Answers

Answer 1
Answer: You are given the number of collegestudents which is 2860. You are also given the male percentage in that collegewhich is 70%. You are asked to find the number of female students. This is apercentage problem. You need to multiply 70% or 0.70 to 2860 and you get thenumber of male students. Then subtract this value to the total number ofstudents and you will get the number of female students. 

Number of male students = 0.7 * 2860 = 2002
Number of female students = 2860 – 2002 =858
Answer 2
Answer: If we know that 70% are male, 30% must be female...

30% as a decimal is 0.3

0.3 x 2860 = 858

So, there are 858 female students:)

Argue for or against the limitation of speed limits.

Answers

Since this is an opinion question you can take it either way.

Pros:
 - lower speed may cause lower speed accidents, which are less deadly         than their high speed alternatives
 - lower speed could potentially allow people to get lost less often because        they are able to navigate and respond earlier
 - gas savings from optimal operating conditions                                            (between 88.5 - 96.5 km/h [55-60 mph])

Cons:
 - longer commute times
 - less enjoyable (if you enjoy driving fast)
 - may contribute to overall congestion and increase in accidents as              people spend more time on average on the roads

Either way, support our opinion and you'll be right.

Answers

Mewling, puking and whistle. It's the best i could find. Onomatopoeias reinforce the
deterministic message of the poem. They show that things make sounds determined by their origin, this is what's natural for them, and there can't be another way.

Discuss the purpose of regional television in espana.

Answers

During Franco's reign, Televisión Española (TVE) was established in 1956. Since Franco was dictator, the television was known for its monopolistic and propagandist character. Around 1964, the television created several production centers around Spain. Most of them were news agents. Between 1964 and 1971, TVE produced different news and entertainment programs. They were two main highly-demanded programs.

There are two main reasons for regional television in Spain. The first is so that people can get the news in a timely fashion, the other is for entertainment.
