A researcher is interested in the effects of exercise on mental health and he proposes the following study: Use stratified rando

m sampling to ensure representative proportions of 18-30, 31-40 and 41- 55 year olds from the population. Next, randomly assign half the subjects from each age group to exercise twice a week, and instruct the rest not to exercise. Conduct a mental health exam at the beginning and at the end of the study, and compare the results.
(a) What type of study is this? (observational or experimental study)?
(b) What are the treatment and control groups in this study?
(c) Does this study make use of blocking? If so, what is the blocking variable?
(d) poin Does this study make use of blinding?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The type of study described in the question is referred to as an experimental study.

(b) The treatment group is the group that exercises 2 times a week, whereas the control group is the group that does not exercise.

(c) Yes, the study under consideration makes use of blocking.

The blocking variables are 18-30-year-olds, 31-40-year-olds, and 41-55year olds.

(d) No, the study under consideration did not make use of blinding because the patients know if they are in the group that exercises or the one that doesn’t.

If you cut a 35 inch long stick in two pieces in the ratio 2:3, how long would each part be?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

14 : 21

Step-by-step explanation:

---> 2:3 ----> 2+3=5

---> Stick's length = 35 inches

<u />

<u>For the first portion</u>

2/5 x 35

2/1 x 7

= 14 inches

<u>For the second portion</u>

3/5 x 35

3/1 x 7

= 21 inches

To confirm: 14 + 21 = 35 inches

14 : 21

Divide both by 7

2 : 3

Determine which equation is belongs to the graph of the limacon curve below.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have functions of r(θ)

In our graph, we can see that the minimum value of r is when θ = 0°, and the maximum value is when θ = 180°.

We also know that the graph is in the square (-5, 5)x(-5, 5) and you can see that the maximum radius is almost less than 5.

Then let's analyze the options:

A) r = 3 - 2*cos(θ)

the maximum is at the right angle, but the maximum is:

r = 3 -2*(-1) = 5, so this maximum value is bigger than the one in the graph.

B) r = 3 - sin(θ)

For the sin functions, the maximum and minimum do not correspond with the values i write earlier, so we can discard this option.

C) r = 3 - cos(θ)

The maximum is: r = 3 - (-1) = 4, so this may be the correct answer.

the minimum is r = 3 - 1 = 2,

this is a possible equation for our circle.

D) r = 2 - 2*cos(θ)

Here, when θ = 0, we have: r = 2 - 2*1 = 0, but in the graph we can see that the radius is not 0 when θ = 0, so we can discard this option.

So the only option that makes sense is option C.

There are 18 in Nevada. 

Multiply 55% by 40, and you get the amount for California. (Which is 22.)

Subtract 40 by 22, and you get 18.
