Answer: The placebo group serves as the control group because this group corresponds to the reference point that will be compared to the other group.

Step-by-step explanation:

The control group is a reference point in an experiment they usually never receive any treatment and serves as benchmark to compare other test result which are measured. The control groups also includes individual with similar characteristics like those been tested e.g Age, health history.

Members in a control group are usually given placebos and usually do not know that they are part of the control group. This helps the researcher determine the effectiveness of the study being carried out.

Factor the expression 20k + 50
Yuliya22 [10]
Answer is 10(2k+5)

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

Work Shown:

20k+50 = 10*2k + 10*5
20k+50 = 10(2k+5)

Note how we can distribute the 10 back in to check our work
10(2k+5) = 10(2k)+10(5) = 20k+50
so that confirms we have the right answer

Another thing to notice is that 10 is the largest factor that we can pull out of 20k and 50. The value 10 is the GCF (greatest common factor) of 20 and 50.
