Child Health and Development Studies (CHDS) has been collecting data about expectant mothers in Oakland, CA since 1959. One of t

he measurements taken by CHDS is the weight increase (in pounds) for expectant mothers in the second trimester. In a fictitious study, suppose that CHDS finds the average weight increase in the second trimester is 14 pounds. Suppose also that, in 2015, a random sample of 40 expectant mothers have mean weight increase of 16 pounds in the second trimester, with a standard deviation of 6 pounds. At the 5% significance level, we can conduct a one-sided T-test to see if the mean weight increase in 2015 is greater than 14 pounds. Statistical software tells us that the p-value = 0.021
Which of the following is the most appropriate conclusion?

a. There is a 2.1% chance that a random sample of 40 expectant mothers will have a mean weight increase of 16 pounds or greater if the mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers is 14 pounds.
b. There is a 2.1% chance that mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers is 14 pounds in 2015.
c. There is a 2.1% chance that mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers is 16 pounds in 2015.
d. There is 2.1% chance that the population of expectant mothers will have a mean weight increase of 16 pounds or greater in 2015 if the mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers was 14 pounds in 1959.

Identify the sequence as arithmetic geometric or neither -8, -3, 6, 11, -22
melomori [17]

Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

Check if it's arithmetic:

-8, -3, 6, 11, -22

+5  +6   +5  -33

Nope

Check if geometric:

-8, -3, 6, 11, -22

*3/8  *-2 *11/6 *-2

Nope

So it's neither

The quality-control manager of a large factory is concerned about the number of defective items produced by workers. Thirty work
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

a. There is no blocking variable, and incentive plans will be randomly assigned to the workers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) is a standard experimental design where experimental units or subjects are grouped as blocks (also known as replicates). In RCBD, subjects within each block are randomly assigned to the experimental units within a block. RCBD is a type of design that reduces variability by controlling variation within each treatment, thereby enhancing the estimation of the treatment effects (combinations of the factor levels of the different factors).

Zack, Rachel, and Maddie are unraveling a huge ball of yarn to see how long it is. As they move away from each other, they form
Korolek [52]
We are tasked to solve the three angles given that we have the measurements of the sides such as
a = Zack to Rachel distance
b = Rachel to Maddie distance
c = Maddie to Zack distance

a =3
b =2.5
c =4

Solving the angles we need to use Law of Cosines:
cos A = 2.5² + 4² -3² /2*2.5*4
A = 48.59°

cos B=3² + 4² - 2.5² / 2*3*4
B = 38.625°

C=180 - 48.59° - 38.625°
C= 92.79°

The three angles are 48.59°,38.63° and 92.79°.
