<span>60 patients x 40 % = 24 and 80 patients x 30 % = 24. So 24 + 24 = 48</span>

The total number of patients experienced unwanted side effects is 48

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

60 patients are given drug A and drug A has unwanted side effects in 40% of the cases.

So, the number of patients experienced side effects for drug A = 40% of 60 =(0.40*60)= 24

Now 80 patients are given drug B and it has side effects in 30% of the cases.

So, the number of patients experienced side effects for drug B = 30% of 80 =(0.30*80)= 24

So, the total number of patients experienced unwanted side effects = 24+24 =48

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: There are 980 degrees of freedom for the within subjects factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of groups = 20

Number of participants in each group = 50

So, number of participants in 20 groups is given by

20\times 50\\\\=1000

As we know that

Degrees of freedom for the within subjects factor would be

v=n-k\\\\v=1000-20\\\\v=980

Hence, there are 980 degrees of freedom for the within subjects factor.

Multiply.<br> (3x+ 5)(3х - 5)
densk [106]

Answer:

9x^2-25

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this problem by using FOIL:

    - FOIL (First, Outer, Inner, Last)

First: 3x*3x= 9x^2

Outer: 3x*-5= -15x

Inner: 3x*5 = 15x

Last: 5*-5= -25

Now add what we got together:

9x^2 -15x +15x -25

Answer: 9x^2 - 25

Note: Whenever when we see conjugates(coefficients of variables are same but real numbers are opposites) like these we can ignore the outer and inner of the foil process as they cancel out.

Hope this helps!
