Mathematics

goldenfox [79]3 years ago

Answer:

2½

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the Least Common Denominator [LCD], which is 6, then convert 5⅙:

5⅙ → 4 7⁄6

5 \frac{1}{6}  - 2 \frac{2}{3}  = 4 \frac{7}{6}  -  2 \frac{4}{6}  = 2 \frac{3}{6}  = 2 \frac{1}{2}

You see, we regrouped 1 from 5⅙ to make sure that the top mixed number had a higher value than the bottom mixed number, so it is much easier to work with.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Determine whether the situation calls for a survey, an observational study, or an experiment.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The answer is "experiment."

Explanation:

When it comes to finding out whether a new reading program can increase reading comprehension, an experiment is important. <em>This procedure is being used in order to validate a hypothesis, particularly in a research study.</em> In the situation above, you have to validate whether a new reading program can increase the reading comprehension or not.

The experiment consists of the <em>independent, dependent and controlled variables.</em> The independent variables are the ones being changed by the researcher, while the dependent variables tell whether the changes in the independent variable is significant. The controlled variables are the ones that are constant.

The<u> dependent variable above is the reading comprehension, </u>while the <u>new reading program is the independent variable. </u>Examples of controlled variables are the<u> age</u>s of the participants. The age directly affects the reading comprehension, thus it has to be considered.
