If I work on a master's degree in applied statistics, I need to probably take 2 undergraduate calculus classes too. Why do you need to take calculus classes for an applied statistics program - do you really need to use calculus in the program? What's the relationship of calculus to applied statistics?

hey fellas,
my instructor gave us some kind of report consists of three questions,
what are the applications of differential eqation in control engineering?
how can we use a DE solver on computer to solve them
why are we taking a DE course while we can solve them on computer?
can you give me a title for such a report??

Given the data below on water, calculate the energy (in kJ) that must be removed to convert 75.0 g of water from a gas at 125. degrees C to a solid at 0.0 degrees C.

heat of vaporization: 40.7 kJ/mol
heat of fusion: 6.02 kJ/mol
specific heat capacities (in J g-1 degrees C-1)
solid: 2.03
liquid: 4.2
gas 2.0

How do you predict redox reactions? like say they give you a solution of sodium iodide to react with an acidified solution of sodium permanganate?
both have sodium, and how do u find the products/how do you know which one is oxidized or reduced??

I understand that anyone can major in anything for medical school. What do medical schools really say and think about that? I assume when you want to go to medical school, you have a major that pertains to majority of the sciences. It makes sense right, because by taking a lot of sciences can prepare you for medical school and the MCAT. Why major in plumbing (if that is a major) If you are not going to do anything with it and it's not going to prepare you? I can see a business major (you can run your own clinic) or psychology major (psychatrist) because they are going to have a purpose in the medical field. Why have a better chance of getting into medical school if you are a non science major than a science major? I am diverse in my classes ( I take art, computer classes, music, language, etc) and I love biology. I'm not just majoring in it so I can have a better chance of getting in. That will be unfair right? Do you have to be aleast realistic when it comes to your major?

ex: does a gallon of milk weigh the same as a gallon of gasoline or motor oil? My thinking is no, b/c the gallon represents volume not weight, and Ive got someone telling me all liquids are equal in weight which Im not a scientist but that doesnt make any sense. help me solve the puzzle.

if v/a=e/b=f/c

why is it true these three things are equal to (v-e+f)/(a+b+c)?

ie. how do u get from v/a=e/b=f/c to
v/a=e/b=f/c=(v-e+f)/(a+b+c)
