A headline in a major newspaper read, "Breast-fed youth found to do better in school."a. Do you thinkthis statement was based on
an observational study or a randomized experiment? Explain.b. Given your answer in part (a), which of these two alternative headlines do you think would be preferable: "Breast-feeding leads to better school performance" or "Link found between breast-feeding and school performance"? Explain.
Such a statement is said to be Randomized experiment as the kids in the school have been selected at random and their performances are observed and recorded. Later it is inquired if they are breast fed or not. This information is later assessed and a conclusion is reached. This type of research or experiment is Randomized experiment.
Considering that the experiment is Randomized, the statement should be "Link found between breast-feeding and school performances". This statement does not restrict the performances of the student specifically on breast-feeding but shows a probable affect of it.
It tells you that when you translate it you add 2 to the x-coordinate and subtract 7 from the y-coordinate. This means that the point E, (8, 8), would become (8 + 2, 8 - 7) or (10, 1).
