Answer:  \bold{\dfrac{x-7}{2}=5\qquad \rightarrow \qquad x = 17}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Monica has some cookies: x

She gave seven to her sister: x - 7

Then she divided the remainder into 2: \dfrac{x-7}{2}

She still had five cookies left: \dfrac{x-7}{2}=5


To solve, multiply both sides by 2, then add 7 to both sides.

\dfrac{x-7}{2}(2)=5(2)\qquad \rightarrow \qquad x - 7 = 10

x - 7 = 10\qquad \rightarrow \qquad x = 17

A treatment group are those group that received some special treatment from the researcher, it can also be called the experimental group. According to the research, the treatment group are those who are in the POVERTA scheme. That is the 320 communities.

A controlled group are those group that were not given any special treatment, but are , separated and studied. According to the research the controlled group are those 185 communities

3. This research provides evidence that being in a community receiving POVERTA benefits is associated with a lower rate of childhood illness. Because after two years, it was noticed the children in the community that receives POVERTA has low rate of illness, than the children in a community that doesn't receive the benefits of POVERTA.

4. This study does not provide evidence that being in a community receiving POVERTA benefits causes a lower rate of childhood illness. Because the research did not involve treatment of illnesses and they is no experimental evidence that shows that POVERTA benefits is interrelated with illness, as illness involves the internal functions of human body.

5. Such study will be called a "RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED EXPERIMENT". Because their randomly isolated themselves, and the POVERTA treatment was not given to them. The researcher was not based in selecting them not to participate.
