People who eat lots of fruits and vegetables have lower rates of colon cancer than those who eat little of these foods. Fruits a

nd vegetables are rich in "antioxidants" such as vitamins A, C, and E. Will taking antioxidants help prevent colon cancer? A medical experiment studied this question with 864 people who were at risk of colon cancer. The subjects were divided into four groups: daily beta-carotene, daily vitamins C and E, all three vitamins every day, or daily placebo. After four years, the researchers were surprised to find no significant difference in colon cancer among the groups(a) What are the explanatory and response variables in this experiment?(b) Outline the design of the experiment. Use your judgment in choosing the group sizes.(c) The study was double-blind. What does this mean?(d) What does "no significant difference" mean in describing the outcome of the study?(e) Suggest some lurking variables that could explain why people who eat lots of fruits and vegetables have lower rates of colon cancer. The experiment suggests that these variables, rather than the antioxidants, may be responsible for the observed benefits of fruits and vegetables.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). The explanatory variables are the antioxidant group, the response variable is the result of the rate of colon cancer

(b)The design of the experiment is stratified Random sampling. I'll suggest there divided into equal group of 216 each.

(c). Double blind is when the people subjected to the experiment are not in the know if they're given placebo or the real antioxidant

(d) No significant difference mean, there is no convincing relationship that those that engage in using antioxidant have reduced colon cancer rate.

(e) Awareness of its history in family, age also.

What’s the perimeter of this rectangle 2,5+D and 4-1,3D
koban [17]

Answer:

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

2,5+D,4-1,3D

Decimal form;

2,5+D,3,3D

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of a rectangle, add the lengths of the rectangle's four sides. If you have only the width and the height, then you can easily find all four sides (two sides are each equal to the height and the other two sides are equal to the width). Multiply both the height and width by two and add the results.

A country has 32 parks that allow camping and 43 parks that have playgrounds. Of those, 10 parks both allow camping and have pla
Olenka [21]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

32 parks allow camping

43 parks allow playgrounds

10 parks both allow camping and playgrounds

110 total parks

First, we need to add 32, 43, and 10

32 + 43 + 10 = 85

Then, we find the difference of 110 and 85

110 - 85 = 25

Since it isn't a decimal, there is no point in rounding.

Paige used 1 1/2 cups of flour and 1/4 cup of butter to make 12 muffins. How much flour and butter would palat
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

To turn the fraction of 1 1/2 to decimal would be : 1.50 add fifty percent because you have to add 6 to 12 and six is half, so you add half. Half of 150 is 75 so add them you get 225 and as a fraction, that's 2 1/4. Already you have the first part done. Since there is only one answer with 2 1/3 your answer has to be D.
