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.

What is the relative frequency of students that studied independently for more than 2 hours to the total number of students that
AlladinOne [14]

This question is incomplete.

The complete question says;

The two-way table shows the number of hours students studied and whether they studied independently or with a study group.

What is the relative frequency of students that studied independently for more than 2 hours to the total number of students that studied independently?

a) 0.4               c) 0.25                    

b) 0.33            d) 0.11

Table is attached as image

                     

Answer:  C (0.25)

The number of students that studied for more than 2 hours as given in the table are 4.

The total number of people that studied independently include those that studied less than 2 hours and those that studied for more than 2 hours.

Those that studied less than 2 hours independently are 12.

Those that studied more than 2 hours independently are 4.

Hence the total number of people that studied independently is 16.

Therefore the relative frequency of students that studied independently for more than 2 hours to the total number of students that studied independently would be = 4/16 = 1/4 = 0.25.

Which inequality is represented by the graph?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

<h2>NONE OF THEM</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph,

y and x intercepts are (0,-3) and approximately (1.9,0) respectively

for A, C and D : y=53x-3

x intercept the value of y=0, and y intercept x=0.

x and y intercepts are (\frac{3}{53},0 ) and approximately (0,-3) respectively

for B: y=35x-5

 x and y intercepts are (\frac{3}{35},0 ) and approximately (0,-3) respectively

Therefore x and y intercepts for the lines y\leq 53x-3,y>53x-3, y and y they are not equal to the x and y intercepts of the given graph
