The antibody production of 12 male red-winged blackbirds before and after receiving testosterone implants was compared. The unit

s for antibody levels were natural log (10-3 optical density) per minute (ln(mOD/min)). The mean change in antibody production was d = 0.056, and the standard deviation was sd = 0.148 If you were assigned the task of repeating this experiment, and wanted to ensure that you could detect a mean change of 0.03 units with a probability of 0.8, then what sample size would you use? Since we are calculating n for a study of individuals, answers should be rounded up to the next whole number.

Answer:

I you want to ensure that you could detect a mean change of 0.03 units with a probability of 0.8, then you need at least 40 individuals for the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimum required sample size can be found using the formula

N≥(\frac{z*s}{ME} )^2 where

  • N is the sample size
  • z is the corresponding z-score for (0.8 probability) 80% confidence level (1.28)
  • s is the standard deviation (0.148)
  • ME (margin of error) is the margin for detecting mean change (0.03)

Using the numbers we get:

N≥(\frac{1.28*1.48}{0.03} )^2 ≈ 40

Ben and Josh are in the same physical education class. Ben weighs twelve more pounds than josh. Together their weights add to 14
Alborosie
Josh weight 66 pounds and Ben weighs 78 pounds.

Using x to represent Josh's weight, the formula is
x + (x + 12) = 144. Combine like terms to make 2x + 12 = 144. Subtract 12 from each side so that 2x = 132. Finally, divide both sides by 2 to get x = 66, which is Josh's weight. Add 12 pounds to find Ben's weight, which is 78 lbs.

The function c(p)=6⋅2p−1 represents the number of circles on page p in an artist’s book.
Leno4ka [110]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
I think the answer is <span>C) The number of circles on a page is 6 times the number of circles on the previous page. 

</span>If we plugged in p = 1, then it leads to c(p) = 6

This is saying "on page 1 (p = 1), the number of circles on this page is 6"

<span>ie, "There are 6 circles on page 1"</span><span>
