A study claims that the combination of vitamin C with vitamin E is more effective for preventing the flu than vitamin C alone. I

n the study, a group of researchers studied 1132 subjects. The subjects were randomly assigned to out of three study groups. The first group of 310 subjects were instructed to take 600 mg daily of vitamin C. The second group of 418 subjects were instructed to take 600 mg of vitamin C and 200 IU of vitamin E daily. The third group of 404 subjects were instructed to take 600 mg of vitamin C and 400 IU of vitamin E daily. The incidence of flu over a season was recorded. All subjects knew which treatment they were receiving.
In this study, which is the control group?
o the second group of 418 taking 200 IU of vitamin E
o the 1132 subjects
o the first group of 310 taking vitamin C alone
o the third group of 404 taking 400 IU of vitamin E
o There is no control group.

1) In this study, the control group is the first group of 310 subjects that were instructed to take only 600 mg daily of vitamin C. (Option C; that is, group 1).

2) The study is not Blind (Option C).

In an experimental setup to test a theory, A control group is the set of experimental participants that the theory to be tested isn't applied upon.

In the case of testing a new treatment, the control group is the group that the new treatment isn't administered.

For this question, the experiment was set up to test the effectiveness of a combination of vitamin A and vitamin E in treating flu cases rather than using vitamin C alone. Group A is the only group that only the old treatment alone is applied to; group 1 participants received no dosage of the new combination of treatments to be tested involving vitamins A and E, unlike the two other groups.

It is obvious now why the experimental participants of group 1 are the control group.

2) A blind experiment/study is one in which the participants don't know which group they belong to, whether they are in the control group or the other experimental group. Like in this case, if this was a blind study, the participants wouldn't know which group they belonged to or which treatment is administered to them.

A double-blind experiment/study is one in which both the conductors of the experiment and the participants in the experiment wouldn't know which group any participant is in. The conductors wouldn't know which participants were in the control or treatment group and the participants too wouldn't have an idea whether they are in the control or treatment group.

Answer:

The left side   5

The bottom  10

The slanted side  11

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of the triangle, add up the side lengths

x+ 2x+1 + x+5 = 26

Combine like terms

4x+6 = 26

Subtract 6

4x+6-6 =26-6

4x=20

Divide by 4

4x/4 = 20/4

x=4

The left side  x = 5

The bottom  x+5    = 5+5 = 10

The slanted side  = 2x+1 = 2*1 +1 = 10+1 =11

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Option (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete without statements; find the statements as followed,

a). Ricky's claim is incorrect since not all rotations that carry a square onto itself are multiples of 30 degrees.

b). Ricky's claim is incorrect since not all rotations that are multiples of 30 degrees carry a square onto itself.

c). Ricky's claim is correct since any rotation that carries a square onto itself is a multiple of 30 degrees.

d). Ricky's claim is correct since any rotation that is a multiple of 30 degrees carries a square onto itself.

Square ABCD will map onto itself when point A comes to B, C or D by a rotation about the center E with a multiple of measure of angle AEB.

m∠AEB = 90° [Diagonals of a square intersect each other at 90°]

In simpler words, if square ABCD is rotated 90° or it's multiple about the center E, square will overlap itself.

Therefore, Option (a) is correct.
