A tooth-whitening gel is to be tested for effectiveness. A group of 85 adults have volunteered to participate in the study. Of t

hese, 43 are to be given a gel that contains the tooth-whitening chemicals. The remaining 42 are to be given a similar-looking package of gel that does not contain the tooth-whitening chemicals. A standard method will be used to evaluate the whiteness of teeth for all participants. Then the results for the two groups will be compared. 1. After the treatment period, compare the whiteness of the 43 treated adults. 2. A placebo is not being used. 3. After the treatment period, compare the whiteness of the two groups. 4. Randomly select 85 adults to be given the treatment gel. 5. The remaining 42 adults receive the placebo gel. 6. Randomly select 43 adults to be given the treatment gel.

Answer:

(a) 3, 5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In the experiment, 43 are to be given a gel that contains the tooth-whitening chemicals while the remaining 42 are to be given a placebo. Therefore, a placebo is used.

The 43 that will receive the gel are to be selected randomly.

After the experiment, the whiteness of the two groups will be compared to see the effect of the gel.

Therefore for the experiment to be completely random,  3, 5, and 6 apply.

(b)

For the experiment to be double-blind, the researchers who will evaluate the whiteness and interact with the subjects, and the subjects would not know which subjects received either the whitening gel or the placebo.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

{b}^{2}  - 4ac = 0 \\  { ( - k  - 2)}^{2}  - 4(1)(4)  = 0\\  {k}^{2}  + 4k + 4 - 4 = 0 \\ {k}^{2}  + 4k = 0 \\ k(k + 4) = 0 \\  \therefore \: k = 0 \:  or \: k =  - 4

Answer

g(x) = x^3 − x^2 − 4x + 4

End behavior- Falls to the left rises to the right

y intercept-(0, 4)

Zeros- (1,-2,2)

g(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 − 9x − 18

End behavior- Falls to the left rises on the right

y intercept- (0,-18)

Zeros- (-2,-3,3)

g(x) = x^3 − 3x^2 − 4x + 12

End behavior-Falls to the left rises to the right

y intercept-(0,12)

Zeros- (3,-2,2)

g(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 − 25x − 50

End behavior- falls to the left rises to the right

y intercept(0,-50)

Zeros- (-2,-5,5)

g(x) = 2x^3 + 14x^2 − 2x − 14

End behavior- falls to the left rises to the right

y intercept-(0,-14)

Zeros- (-7,-1,1)
