Asmall (but heavy) particle placed in a glass of water will follow a zigzag motion because the particle will bounce off of the water molecules it meets. this is called brownian motion. a physicist simulates this on a computer, by varying the distance a particle can travel (called the mean free length), on average, before it collides with a water molecule and assigning the change in motion to be one of 8 directions, each with a similar probability. by running the simulated particle (with the same mean free length) many times she determines that it should take 15 seconds, on average, for the particle to fall to the bottom, with a standard deviation of 1.5 seconds. next she lets a real particle fall through a glass of water and finds that it took 18 seconds. what does she conclude, and why?

He graph of f(x) = |x| is stretched by a factor of 0.3 and translated down 4 units. which statement about the domain and range of each function is correct? the range of the transformed function and the parent function are both all real numbers greater than or equal to 4. the domain of the transformed function is all real numbers and is, therefore, different from that of the parent function. the range of the transformed function is all real numbers greater than or equal to 0 and is, therefore, different from that of the parent function. the domain of the transformed function and the parent function are both all real numbers.
