Mice and Pain Can you tell if a mouse is in pain by looking at its facial expression? A new study believes you can. The study1 c

reated a "mouse grimace scale" and tested to see if there was a positive correlation between scores on that scale and the degree and duration of pain (based on injections of a weak and mildly painful solution.) The study's authors believe that if the scale applies to other mammals as well, it could help veterinarians test how well painkillers and other medications work in animals. 1"Of Mice and Pain", The Week, May 28, 2010, p. 21. 1. State the null and alternative hypotheses. 2.Since the study authors report that you can tell if a mouse is in pain by looking at its facial expression, do you think the data were found to be statistically significant? 3.If another study were conducted testing the correlation between scores on the "mouse grimace scale" and a placebo (non-painful) solution, should we expect to see a sample correlation as extreme as that found in the original study? 4. If another study were conducted testing the correlation between scores on the "mouse grimace scale" and a placebo (non-painful) solution, should we expect to see a sample correlation as extreme as that found in the original study, if the original study results showed no evidence of a relationship between mouse grimaces and pain?

<u>Explanation:</u>

1. a) Null hypothesis: There is <em>no</em> statistically significant relationship between the mouse grimace scale and the amount of pain felt by mouse.

b) Alternate hypothesis: There is a statistically-significant relationship between the mouse grimace scale and the amount of pain felt by mouse.

2. Yes, because a statistically significant data implies that there is sufficient evidence to believe the study, based on the results of the findings.

3. No, since the variables are different in this case. Here we are dealing with a non-painful solution so there may be no sample correlation as extreme as that found in the original study.

4. Possibly, because every hypothesis is an assumption until it is proven. Thus, in every statistical research, there may be different findings.

Examine the following system of inequalities.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Dotted linear inequality shaded above passes through (0, 4) and (4, 0). Solid exponential inequality shaded below passes through (negative 2,2) & (0,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y > -x+4 ----> inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area above the dotted line y=-x+4

The dotted line passes through the points (0,4) and (4,0) (y and x-intercepts)

and

y \leq -(1/2)^{x} +6 -----> inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area above the solid line y=-(1/2)^{x} +6

The solid line passes through the points (0,5) and (-2,2)

therefore

The solution of the system of inequalities is the shaded area between the dotted line and the solid line

see the attached figure

Anna found the difference between thirteen and the product of four and a number. Which expression represents this phrase, and wh
Elan Coil [88]
The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable.
 We have then:
 n: unknown number.
 We write the algebraic expression:
 13 - 4n
 For n = 3 we have:
 13 - 4 (3) = 13 - 12 = 1
 Answer:
 
An expression that represents this phrase is:
 
13 - 4n
 
its value if n = 3 is:

Despite booming new car sales with their cha-ching
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer to the 1st question: 8 years

Answer to the 2nd question: The year 2022

=======================================================

Further explanation:

x = number of years after 2008

y = average price of a new car

The prices are going up by $1250 per year on average. This is the slope because the slope is the rate of change. So m = 1250.

The y intercept is b = 30100 as this is the price in 2008.

This leads us to go from y = mx+b to y = 1250x+30100

Plug in x = 0 and you should get y = 30100.

Also, plugging x = 6 into the equation leads to y = 37600 to help confirm things.

-----------------

Next, we plug in y = 47600 and solve for x.

y = 1250x+30100

47600 = 1250x+30100

47600-30100 = 1250x

17500 = 1250x

1250x = 17500

x = 17500/1250

x = 14

This means 14 years after the year 2008 is when the average new car price will be $47,600.

2008+14 = 2022

2022-2014 = 8

Therefore, <u>8 years</u> after 2014 (aka the <u>the year 2022</u>) is when the new car average price will be $47,600.
