In spring 2014, faculty from the City University of New York (CUNY) reported on a randomized controlled trial they conducted. Th

e goal of the experiment was to determine whether community college students who assess into elementary algebra could be successful if they were placed directly into college-level statistics (with extra support). The experiment was conducted at three urban CUNY community colleges. At the time of their recruitment into the experiment, participants did not plan to major in a subject requiring college algebra. Students who assessed into elementary algebra and agreed to participate in the study were randomly assigned to one of three treatments: 1) traditional elementary algebra, 2) traditional elementary algebra with extra support in a weekly workshop, or 3) college-level statistics with extra support in a weekly workshop.

Answer:

Explanatory variable: Extra support by faculties

Response variable: whether community college students who have assess into elementary algebra could be successful if they were placed directly into college-level statistics.

Confounding Variable: Ability of students to get passing grades.

It is an experiment to check if the hypothesis is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

An explanatory variable is a type of independent variable. An explanatory variable is that variable that explains changes in another variable. It can be anything that might affect the response variable. The explanatory variable is used to predict or explain differences in the response variable. In an experimental or research study, the explanatory variable is the variable that is manipulated by the researcher.

From the information given,

Explanatory variable: Extra support by faculties.

The response variable is also known as the dependent/outcome variable. Here, its value can be predicted or its variation can be explained by the explanatory variable. In an experimental study, this is the outcome that is measured after manipulation of the explanatory variable

From the question above,

Response variable: whether community college students who have assess into elementary algebra could be successful if they were placed directly into college-level statistics.

A confounding variable is that outside influence that changes the effect of a dependent and independent variable. This extraneous influence is often used to influence the outcome of an experimental design. The Confounding Variable in the above is:

Confounding Variable: Ability of students to get passing grades.

It is an experiment to check if the hypothesis is true.

A. When solving the system of linear equations 6x+y = 1 and 7x+2y = -3 with substitution, it is easiest to first solve the equat
nalin [4]

Answer:

6x + y = 1

y = 1 - 6x

7x + 2(1 - 6x) = -3 substitute 1 - 6x in for y

7x + 2 - 12x = -3 combine like terms

2 - 5x = -3 subtract 2 from both sides

-5x = -5 divide by -5

x = 1

Write an expression for the eighth partial sum of the series using summation notation
balandron [24]

Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

9/10 + 6/5 + 3/2...........

We find the difference between the terms

\frac{6}{5} - \frac{9}{10}

\frac{12}{10} - \frac{9}{10} = \frac{3}{10}

We will get the same difference when we subtract consecutive terms.

so , d= 3/10, a= 9/10

we find the formula for nth term

a_n = a+(n-1) d

a_n = \frac{9}{10} + (n-1)\frac{3}{10}

a_n = \frac{9}{10} +\frac{3}{10}n-\frac{3}{10}

a_n = \frac{6}{10} +\frac{3}{10}n

a_n = \frac{3}{5} +\frac{3}{10}n

we need to find eighth partial sum so we  take n=1 to 8

sum of 8 terms (\frac{3}{5} +\frac{3}{10}n)

So option B is correct

How many pounds of carbon dioxide would you prevent from entering the atmosphere in one year, if you were to replace a 100-watt
VikaD [51]
That's an excellent question but we don't have enough information to answer it. We would need to know how the electrical energy is generated. Nuclear, hydroelectric, coal burning, wind, and natural gas burning all produce different amounts of carbon for the same amount of electrical energy. If the utility that supplies your house uses nuclear or wind, then you can leave both bulbs shining 24/7 and they're not responsible for any carbon.
