Answer:

  A)  True

Step-by-step explanation:

In an experiment that has the purpose of testing the efficacy of a procedure or drug, comparison is made against the efficacy of a placebo, a procedure or drug that is <em>intended to have no effect whatever</em>.

__

Famously, a placebo is often found to be nearly as effective (or even more effective) than the procedure or drug on trial. This effect is known as "the placebo effect."

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the technique performs differently than the traditional method, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu =10.1  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 10.1

t=\frac{10.5-10.1}{\frac{1.4}{\sqrt{12}}}=0.990    

p_v =2*P(t_{(11)}>0.990)=0.343    

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL  reject the null hypothesis, so we can't conclude that the technique performs differently than the traditional method at 10% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=10.5 represent the sample mean

s=1.4 represent the sample standard deviation

n=12 sample size  

\mu_o =10.1 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.1 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the technique performs differently than the traditional method, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu =10.1  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 10.1  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{10.5-10.1}{\frac{1.4}{\sqrt{12}}}=0.990    

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=12-1=11  

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(t_{(11)}>0.990)=0.343  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL  reject the null hypothesis, so we can't conclude that the technique performs differently than the traditional method at 10% of signficance.

Answer:

The factors of 2q²-5pq-2q+5p are (2q-5p) (q-1)....

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is:

2q²-5pq-2q+5p

Make a pair of first two terms and last two terms:

(2q²-5pq) - (2q-5p)

Now factor out the common factor from each group.

Note that there is no common factor in second group. So we will take 1 as a common factor.

q(2q-5p) -1(2q-5p)

Now factor the polynomial by factoring out the G.C.F, 2q-5p

(2q-5p) (q-1)

Thus the factors of 2q²-5pq-2q+5p are (2q-5p) (q-1)....

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of -2/3 and passes through point (-3, -1)? y=-2/3x+1.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

y = -2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the equation using the slope. It should look like this: y = -2/3x + b. Next, find the y intercept by plugging in the point. This is what it looks like: -1 = -2/3(-3) + b. Multiply -2/3 by -3 to get 2. This is what it should look like now: -1 = 2 + b. Subtract 3 from both sides to get -3 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in -3 for b. This is your final equation:

y = -2/3x - 3

Hope this helped! :)
