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. All trout under 15 inches had to be released. A study of trout before and after the regulation went into effect showed that the average length of a trout increased by 4.2 inches after the new regulation.-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 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 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.(d) An ecology class used binoculars to watch 23 turtles at Lowell Ponds.

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.

Can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for b if c is 13 and a is 12
Greeley [361]

Answer:b=5

Step-by-step explanation:the formular for pythagoras theory is

C^2=a^2+b^2

13^2=12^2+b^2

169=144+b^2

Collect like terms

169-144=b^2

b^2=25

Take the the square root of both sides

b=square root of 25

b=5

Let (-5,-4) be a point on the terminal side of (theta). Find the exact values of cos, csc, and tan.
Rasek [7]

The exact values of the trigonometric identities cos, csc and tan as required in the task content are; -√41/5, -√41/4 and 4/5 respectively.

<h3>What are the exact values of cos, csc and tan as required in the task content?</h3>

It follows from above that the terminal side of the angle theta as described is on the point with coordinates (-5, -4).

Hence, the points spans 5 units leftwards and r units downwards on x and y axis respectively.

Hence, the length of the line that describes the angle by Pythagoras theorem is;

h = √((-4)² + (-5)²)

h = √41.

Hence, it follows from trigonometric identities that;

Cos (theta) = -5/√41.

Csc (theta) = -√41/4

Tan (theta) = 4/5
