Weather forecasts are more accurate than climatology _______________.

Chaos Theory applies to systems that are linear and additive.

  1.) Declare the 3 variables needed for this problem:   b for the base of a triangle,  h  for the height of a triangle, and a for the area of a triangle. 2.)  Initialize the base of the triangle to 3.0 and the height of the triangle to 4.0 3.) Write the code to use these variables to compute the area of a triangle (area is one-half base times height).4.) Print “The area of a triangle with base of ” + b + ” and height of ” + h + ” is ” + area5.)  Format the area of the triangle to 2 decimal places using System.out.printf   In main: public static void main (String args[]){        //Declare  and initialize the variables here       //Calculate the area of a triangle using the formula provided       //Print the message and format the area to 2 decimal places }      

Write the code that will declare a String variable named state with the initial value of “Mississippi”, and will then print the location of the second occurrence of the letter ‘i’ in the state.  The output message will say “The location of the second i in Mississippi is 4”.  In main: public static void main(String args[]) {       //declare your variable(s) here and initialize       //find the location of the second ‘i’      //print that location }

Which of the following is NOT one of the ways we measure how “good” a weather forecast is….

Weather forecasters can add value to forecasts above statistical models alone.

Which service is the most accurate?

In the Raw Data Podcast, Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Data, there is a report of a study where the researchers were able to influence voting percentages by _______ by manipulating search engine results about the candidates.

Most viewers trust their local weather forecaster more than national services.

  What is the value in answer after executing the following statements: int num1 = 3;int num2 = 2;int num3 = 8;int num4 = 5;   int answer =  num1 + num3 / num2 * num4;
