Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

a. Odds ratio = 1.58

b.  Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning

Explanation:

For case  study                                                  

Let 'a'  represent the total population of people with melanomia = 696                                                      

Let 'b' represent the total number of people with melanomia exposed to indoor tanning  =  1107 – 696 = 411 people

For  control study

Let 'c' represent the total population = 1500

Let 'd' represent the total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning = 1500 - (0.428 * 1500)

                                                          =  1500 - 723

Total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning   = 777 people

                                                       

a. Odds ratio = (a/b) / (d/c) = (696/411) / (777/723)

                                                = 1.69 / 1.07 = 1.58

b. Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning.

Usualmente la recesiones provocan
Over [174]

Answer:

La recesión provoca un aumento en el gasto público del gobierno para hacer que la economía flote hasta que haya estabilidad. Esta es una característica común en la economía y, como tal, ayuda a amortiguar el efecto de una recesión. Se perderán muchos empleos, aumentando así los niveles de desempleo. Por lo tanto, el gobierno tiene que gastar más para ayudar a los afectados a sobrevivir.

Explanation:

Una alta tasa de desempleo y las malas condiciones económicas llevan al gobierno a un mayor gasto durante el tiempo de recesión. El propósito es ayudar a estimular la economía y ayudarla a sobrevivir las dificultades económicas. Un ejemplo típico es el paquete de estímulo de Obama en los Estados Unidos de América en 2009 en respuesta a la gran recesión.
