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

Caleb spent 34.95 on 5 pounds of coffee. how much was the coffee per pound?

horsena [70]

It would be $6.99. All you have to do is divide the total (34.95) by pounds of coffee (5). 34.95 / 5 will give you 6.99! You can check this by doing 6.99 * 5, which would again give you 34.95. Contact me if you need any more help. :^)
