The total number of blue beads with Ivan is $\boxed{\bf 42}$ .

Further explanation:

It is given that Ivan has $6$ times as many blue beads as red beads.

The total number of beads are $49$ .

Calculation:

Assume the beads of red color are denoted by $R$ and the beads of blue color are denoted by $B$ .

Now, given that there are total $49$ beads and this can be written in the form of an equation as follows:

$\boxed{R+B=49}$ ......(1)

Also, given that Ivan has $6$ times as many blue beads as red beads and this can written as follows:

$\boxed{6R=B}$ ......(2)

Substitute the value $6R=B$ in equation (1), we get

$\begin{aligned}R+6R&=49\\7R&=49\\R&=\dfrac{49}{7}\\R&=7\end{aligned}$

Therefore, Ivan has $7$ red beads.

Substitute $R=7$ in equation (1).

$\begin{aligned}B&=6\cdot 7\\&=42\end{aligned}$

This implies that number of blue beads are $42$ .

Thus, the total number of blue beads with Ivan is $\boxed{\bf 42}$ .

Let

x--------> the number of blue beads

y--------> the number of red beads

we know that

$x+y=49$

$x=49-y$ -------> equation $1$

$x=6y$ ------> equation $2$

equate equation $1$ and equation $2$

$49-y=6y\\ 6y+y=49\\ 7y=49\\\\ y=\frac{49}{7} \\ \\ y=7$

find the value of x

$x=6*7\\ x=42$

therefore

the answer is

Ivan has $42$ $blue beads$

Answer:

D. The small p value and the small effect size suggest that the observed difference between the drug placebo groups are likely to be due to sampling error. This study should be replicated with a larger sample size.

Step-by-step explanation:

The p value is determined for any test before making a conclusion. If the p-value is smaller than critical value then we reject the null hypothesis which means that drug is not effective for the reducing depression. A very small p-value usually lesser than 0.05 indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis.

Need help with trig problem in pic

Sidana [21]

Answer:

a) $cos(\alpha)=-\frac{3}{5}\\$

b) $\sin(\beta)= \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

c) $\frac{4+3\sqrt{3} }{10}\\$

d) $\alpha\approx 53.1^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The problem tells us that angle $\alpha$ is in the second quadrant. We know that in that quadrant the cosine is negative.

We can use the Pythagorean identity:

$tan^2(\alpha)+1=sec^2(\alpha)\\(-\frac{4}{3})^2 +1=sec^2(\alpha)\\sec^2(\alpha)=\frac{16}{9} +1\\sec^2(\alpha)=\frac{25}{9} \\sec(\alpha) =+/- \frac{5}{3}\\cos(\alpha)=+/- \frac{3}{5}$

Where we have used that the secant of an angle is the reciprocal of the cos of the angle.

Since we know that the cosine must be negative because the angle is in the second quadrant, then we take the negative answer:

$cos(\alpha)=-\frac{3}{5}$

b) This angle is in the first quadrant (where the sine function is positive. They give us the value of the cosine of the angle, so we can use the Pythagorean identity to find the value of the sine of that angle:

$cos (\beta)=\frac{1}{2} \\\\sin^2(\beta)=1-cos^2(\beta)\\sin^2(\beta)=1-\frac{1}{4} \\\\sin^2(\beta)=\frac{3}{4} \\sin(\beta)=+/- \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} \\sin(\beta)= \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

where we took the positive value, since we know that the angle is in the first quadrant.

c) We can now find $sin(\alpha -\beta)$ by using the identity:

$sin(\alpha -\beta)=sin(\alpha)\,cos(\beta)-cos(\alpha)\,sin(\beta)\\$

Notice that we need to find $sin(\alpha)$ , which we do via the Pythagorean identity and knowing the value of the cosine found in part a) above:

$sin(\alpha)=\sqrt{1-cos^2(\alpha)} \\sin(\alpha)=\sqrt{1-\frac{9}{25} )} \\sin(\alpha)=\sqrt{\frac{16}{25} )} \\sin(\alpha)=\frac{4}{5}$

Then:

$sin(\alpha -\beta)=\frac{4}{5}\,\frac{1}{2} -(-\frac{3}{5}) \,\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} \\sin(\alpha -\beta)=\frac{2}{5}+\frac{3\sqrt{3} }{10}=\frac{4+3\sqrt{3} }{10}$
