Answer:

(C) 32

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of Permutation and Combination, not probability.

This clarification is given because most questions like this are on Probability and Statistics.

The researcher has recruited 8  participants and must divide them into two groups of 4 people each.

So there's:

GROUP A - Placebo Group

GROUP B - Experimental Group

Since the experiment is on humans - distinct objects - they will have distinct identities. Assume the 8 participants are lined up according to identities 1,2,3,4,  5,6,7,8

[2+2+2+2  +2+2+2+2] × 2 = 16×2 = 32

Problem PageQuestion The Russell family and the Gonzalez family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate fo
Agata [3.3K]

Answer: the Russell family used their sprinkler for 40 hours.

the Gonzalez family used their sprinkler for 20 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hours for which the Russell family used their sprinkler.

Let y represent the number of hours for which the Gonzalez family used their sprinkler.

The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 60 hours. It means that

x + y = 60

The water output rate for the Russell family's sprinkler was 35L per hour. The water output rate for the Gonzalez family's sprinkler was 40L per hour. The total water output of both families was 2200L. It means that

35x + 40y = 2200- - - - - - - - - - --1

Substituting x = 60 - y into equation 1, it becomes.

35(60 - y) + 40y = 2200

2100 - 35y + 40y = 2200

- 35y + 40y = 2200 - 2100

5y = 100

y = 100/5

y = 20

x = 60 - y = 60 - 20

x = 40

a dilation and translation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know its a dilation because the lines of congruency are in the same area but the triangles are of different sizes

we know it's a translation because the triangles are in two different places instead of having something overlap

The graph of the function y=x2 + 5x + 6 has a<br> A) Downward<br> B) Upward
hjlf

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic function in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

• If a > 0 then the graph opens upwards

• If a < 0 then the graph opens downwards

y = x² + 5x + 6 ← is in standard form

with a = 1 > 0

The graph therefore opens upward
