Answer:
To provide a baseline for judging the survival rates of infants who received whole-body cooling
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, the purpose of the experiment is to see whether reducing body temperature for three days after birth increased the rate of survival without brain damage.
Then, the proposed method (whole-body cooling) has to be contrasted with the baseline, in this case, the "usual care". If we want to know if this proposed method is statistically better, we have to compare with these baseline with random sampling out of the same population.
If it is not compared to nothing or to a new method, it wouldn't be possible to conclude if the method is better or not than the usual care.
Answer:
y +8 = -4(x -8)
Step-by-step explanation:
You recognize that the given equation is in slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
with m = 1/4 and b = 5.
A perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of this value of m, so the desired slope is ...
-1/m = -1/(1/4) = -4
The point-slope form of the equation for a line is ...
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . for slope m through point (h, k)
Using m=-4 and (h, k) = (8, -8), the point-slope form of the equation for the line you want is ...
y +8 = -4(x -8)
The answer is 3/4 hope i help
