You’ve probably heard police officers on television repeat the same line every single time they arrest someone: “You have the right to remain silent.” Have you ever wondered why they always say this? As it turns out, all police officers in the country are required by law to say these words, which are called “Miranda Rights.” They are named after a famous court case from 1966, Miranda v. Arizona.

THE CASE
In 1966, an Arizona man named Ernesto Miranda was accused of kidnapping and assaulting a teenage girl. After a few hours of questioning, he confessed his guilt to a police officer. Later, during his trial, the prosecution
used his confession as evidence to convict him. When the court did find him guilty, his lawyers appealed the case.

The case went all the way to the Supreme Court. The case related to the Constitution, because the 5th Amendment to the Constitution gives everyone the right to stay quiet when they are asked to confess a crime. Miranda’s lawyers argued that Miranda did not know about this right, and therefore his testimony
could not count as evidence in the trial.

THE RESULT
Since Miranda did not know about his 5th Amendment rights, his confession could not be used against him, and the Supreme Court ruled in his favor. The official court decision was over 60 pages long, but Chief Justice Earl Warren read the whole thing out loud for the court. It had two parts:

First, after the police arrest someone, they have to tell that person that they have the right to remain silent, just as it is stated in the 5th Amendment.

Second, the police also have to tell that person they have the right to use a lawyer in the trial and any time prior to that, and that if they cannot afford a lawyer, the government will provide them with one. These rights are both found in the 6th Amendment.

This is why you always hear police officers reciting these important rights whenever they arrest someone. They are called “Miranda Rights” today, named after Ernesto Miranda himself.

MIRANDA RIGHTS TODAY
The basic wording might sound familiar. “You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to you. Do you understand these rights as I have read them to you?” However, there are actually over 945 versions of the Miranda Rights! Every state and county can have its own wording.

Not only that, but the Miranda Rights also have to be translated into many different languages, in case the police arrest someone who does not speak English. There are also simplified versions, because it is important for minors
and the mentally disabled or mentally ill to understand their rights as well.

As it turns out, even 945 versions are not enough to make sure everyone understands what their rights really are. Some researchers have analyzed the wording of Miranda Rights from all over the country, and most versions are too complex for everyone to understand. Some are so complex, they are at the same reading level as a college accounting textbook!

It is extremely important that everyone can understand their right to remain silent and their right to be represented by a lawyer. The law says that, in order to use a suspect’s own confession against him, the court has to prove that the police read them their rights, they completely understood their rights, and that they chose to ignore those rights intentionally. The Constitution gave us these rights for a reason; make sure you understand them!

PART A: What does the word “convict” most closely mean as it is used in paragraph 2?
A. A person who has committed a crime
B. Deceiving someone as a legal tactic
C. To take someone to court
D. To find guilty of a crime

The number of cubes in the rectangle prism will be 320. Then the correct option is D.

Let the prism with a length of L, a width of W, and a height of H. Then the volume of the prism is given as

V = L x W x H

A right rectangular prism is completely filled with small cubes. Each small cube has edges that are 1/4 inches long. The volume of the prism is 5 inches.

Let 'n' be the number of cubes. And all the sides of the cube are congruent. Then the volume of each cube is calculated as,

Volume of cube = (1/4) x (1/4) x (1/4)

Volume of cube = 1 / 64 cubic inches

The volume of the rectangle and the volume of small 'n' cubes will be equal. Then we have

Volume of 'n' cube = Volume of a rectangle

(1 / 64) n = 5

n = 5 x 64

n = 320

The number of cubes in the rectangle prism will be 320. Then the correct option is D.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

√(7² + 2²) = √53 ≅ 7.28

Answer:

i. The equation required = [tex]\frac{remaining amount of the bill}{remaining number of people}[/tex]

ii. Remaining people would pay $10 each.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of people involved = 6

Total bill of their lunch = $72

Mary and Josephine paid = $20 + $12

                              = $32

The remaining bill to be paid = $72 - $32

                              = $40

The rest of the group = 4

Splitting the remaining bill equally,

the equation required = [tex]\frac{remaining amount of the bill}{remaining number of people}[/tex]

                                     =  ($40) ÷ 4

                                     = $[tex]\frac{40}{4}[/tex]

                                    = $10

The amount that each of the remaining people would pay is $10.

Answer:

The runner with a mean running time of 6.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The value range parameters of the three runners are;

The mean running time of the runner, A = 6.2

The mean running time of the runner, B = 7.4

The mean running time of the runner, C = 6.9

The interquartile range of the runner, A = 1.1

The interquartile range of the runner, B = 0.02

The interquartile range of the runner, C = 0.08

Whereby the number of running times for the 3 runners is large, and with the assumption that distribution of the mean is normal, we have

The mean = The mode of  the data

Therefore, the minimum, and maximum running time of the runners are;

Runner A;

Minimum running time = 6.2 - 1.1 = 5.1

Maximum running time = 6.2 + 1.1 = 7.3

Runner B;

Minimum running time = 7.4 - 0.02 = 7.38

Maximum running time = 7.4 + 0.02 = 7.42

Runner C;

Minimum running time = 6.9 - 0.08 = 6.82

Maximum running time = 6.9 + 0.08 = 6.98

The fastest runner has the lowest running time;

Therefore, the fastest runner is runner A with a mean running time of 6.2  with a minimum running time of 5.1

A set of magical wand prices are normally distributed with a mean of 50 dollars and a standard deviation of 4 dollars. A blackthorn wand has a price of 45.20. What proportion of wand prices are lower than the price of the blackthorn wand? You may round your answer to four decimal places

Answer:

0.1151

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = $45.20

μ is the population mean = $50

σ is the population standard deviation = $4

We are solving for x < 45.20

Hence:

z = 45.20 - 50/4

z = -1.2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<45.20) = 0.11507

Approximately to 4 decimal places = 0.1151

Therefore, the proportion of wand prices that are lower than the price of the blackthorn wand is 0.1151

Answer:

The answer is 65

Step-by-step explanation

You need the slant height to find the lateral area of the cone, so using the equation l = √h²+r², you plug in the height for h, the radius for r, and l is the slant height.

l =√12²+5²

l = √144 + 25

l = √169

l = 13

Now that you have the slant height, simply multiply that by the radius and you'll get the lateral area in terms of pi.

Answer:

643737.6

Step-by-step explanation:

1 inch is 2.54 centimeters. 2.54 centimeters is 1 inch. 12x2.54 =30.48. 30.48 is equal to one foot because 12 inches are in 1 foot and one inch is 2.54 centimeters. 1 yard is 3 feet so 30.48x3=91.44. 1 yard is equal to 91.44 centimeters. 1 miles is 1760 yards so 91.44x1760= 160934.4. 1 mile is equal to 160934.4 centimeters. Since 1 mile is equal to 160934.4 centimeters, you have to multiply 160934.4 by 4 to get 4 miles. 160934.4x4=643737.6 and this is your final answer. Therefore, 4 miles is equal to 643737.6 centimeters.
