Which technique for gathering data (observational study or experiment) do you think was used in the following studies?(a) The Co

lorado Division of Wildlife netted and released 774 fish at Quincy Reservoir. There were 219 perch, 315 blue gill, 83 pike, and 157 rainbow trout.-This is an observational study because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.-This is an experiment because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.-This is an experiment because a treatment was deliberately imposed on the individuals in order to observe a possible change in the response or variable being measured.-This is an observational study because a treatment was deliberately imposed on the individuals in order to observe a possible change in the response or variable being measured.(b) The Colorado Division of Wildlife caught 41 bighorn sheep on Mt. Evans and gave each one an injection to prevent heartworm. A year later, 38 of these sheep did not have heartworm, while the other three did.-This is an observational study because a treatment was deliberately imposed on the individuals in order to observe a possible change in the response or variable being measured.-This is an observational study because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.-This is an experiment because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.-This is an experiment because a treatment was deliberately imposed on the individuals in order to observe a possible change in the response or variable being measured.(c) The Colorado Division of Wildlife imposed special fishing regulations on the Deckers section of the South Platte River.

Answer:

For question a, the correct option is: This is an observational study because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.

For question b, the correct option is: This is an experiment because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.

For question c, the correct option is: This is an experiment because a treatment was deliberately imposed on the individuals in order to observe a possible change in the response or variable being measured.

For question d, the correct option is: This is an observational study because observations and measurements of individuals are conducted in a way that doesn't change the response or the variable being measured.

Step-by-step explanation: To give us a background on why the options above were chosen, let us see the difference between Observational study and Experimental study.

In an observational study, the researcher draws inferences from an independent variable that is not under his/her control. While in an experimental study, there in an intervention and the effects of the intervention are studied.

Therefore, in the questions a to d above, all we need to do is identity which variables were influenced and which were merely observed.

For question a, the variables were only observed.

For question b, the variables were influenced.

For question c, the variables were also influenced.

For question d, the variables were merely observed.

ASAP GUYS PLEASE I NEED UR HELP THIS IS SO HARD<br> Solve: 5 − 7 ( z + 1 ) = 7 ( − 9 − 3 z )
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

-\frac{61}{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

Question: 5 - 7(z+1) = 7(-9-3z)

We multiply the number in front of the bracket first, since that is multiplication.

--> 5 -7z -7 = -63 - 21z

--> -7z -2 = -63 - 21z

Now, we move all the z and all the numbers to each side.

--> -7z +21z = -63 +2

--> 14z = -61

--> z = -61/14

This cannot be simplified further, so z is -61/14.

the actual length of a rectangular platform used for assembeling robots is 6 feet. in amal's drawing, the platform measures 1.2
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Actual width = 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of 1.2 to 1  equals the ratio of length to width.

1.2 / 1  = 6 / w  where w is the actual width.

1.2w = 6

w = 6/1.2

w = 5.

Use five different colors to paint the four rectangles A, B, C and D shown in the figure. No two rectangles sharing an edge can
GenaCL600 [577]

There are 120 ways to color the 4 rectangles

<h3>How to determine the number of ways?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Paints, n = 5

Rectangles, = 4

The number of ways to color the rectangles is

Ways = ^nP_r

This gives

Ways = ^5P_4

Apply the permutation formula

Ways = \frac{5!}{1!}

Evaluate the expression

Ways = 120

Hence, there are 120 ways to color the 4 rectangles
