Answer:

<u>There are 380 ways that 1st and 2nd place can be determined in the race</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 20 possibilities for determine the 1st place

There are 19 possibilities for determine the 2nd place

Number of ways that 1st and 2nd place can be determined = 20 * 19

Number of ways that 1st and 2nd place can be determined = 380

A crossover trial is a type of experiment used to compare two drugs. Subjects take one drug for a period of time and then switch
zysi [14]

Answer:

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{-0.714 -0}{\frac{1.38}{\sqrt{7}}}=-1.369

df=n-1=7-1=6

p_v =2*P(t_{(6)}

We see that the p value is higher than the ususal significance levels commonly used of 1% or 5% so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is not enough evidence to conclude that we have a different response between the two drugs

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given by the problem

Subject  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Drug A  6 3 4 5 7 1 4

Drug B  5 1 5 5 5 2 2

x=value for drug A , y = value for drug B

x: 6 3 4 5 7 1 4  

y: 5 1 5 5 5 2 2

We want to verify if the mean response differs between the two drugs then  the system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_y- \mu_x = 0

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_y -\mu_x \neq 0

We can begin calculating the difference d_i=y_i-x_i and we obtain this:

d: -1, -2, 1, 0, -2, 1, -2

Now we can calculate the mean difference  

\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}=-0.714

Now we can find the the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:

s_d =\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1}}=1.38

And now we can calculate the statistic given by :

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{-0.714 -0}{\frac{1.38}{\sqrt{7}}}=-1.369

Now we can find the degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=7-1=6

We can calculate the p value, since we have a two tailed test the p value is given by:

p_v =2*P(t_{(6)}

We see that the p value is higher than the ususal significance levels commonly used of 1% or 5% so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is not enough evidence to conclude that we have a different response between the two drugs

Martha and sarah leave block p and q towards q and p respectively simultaneously and travel in the same route. After meeting eac
olga_2 [115]

The average speed of Martha and Sarah is 32 km/h.

We need to know about the speed to solve this problem. Speed can be determined as the distance traveled divided by time. It can be written as

v = s / t

where v is speed, s is distance and t is time.

From the question above, we know that:

t sarah = 3 hours

t martha = 5 hours

v sarah = 40 km/h

By using the speed equation, we get the distance

vsarah = s / tsarah

40 = s/3

s = 120 km

Find Martha's speed

vmartha = s / tmartha

vmartha = 120 / 5

vmartha = 24 km/h

Find average speed

v = (vsarah + vmartha)/2

v = (40 + 24) / 2

v = 32 km/h

Hence, the average speed of Martha and Sarah is 32 km/h.
