Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.
<u>Explanation:</u>
1. a) Null hypothesis: There is <em>no</em> statistically significant relationship between the mouse grimace scale and the amount of pain felt by mouse.
b) Alternate hypothesis: There is a statistically-significant relationship between the mouse grimace scale and the amount of pain felt by mouse.
2. Yes, because a statistically significant data implies that there is sufficient evidence to believe the study, based on the results of the findings.
3. No, since the variables are different in this case. Here we are dealing with a non-painful solution so there may be no sample correlation as extreme as that found in the original study.
4. Possibly, because every hypothesis is an assumption until it is proven. Thus, in every statistical research, there may be different findings.
Point are set up (x,y) you sub the number for x into the equation and see if you get the number for y.
y=4x+3
y=4 (5)+3
y=20+3
y=23
so A isn't the answer
y=4 (17)+3
y=68+3
y=71
B isn't the answer
y=4 (4)+3
y=16+3
y=19
and because 4 is the x value for c and d and there can only be 1 y value for each x you're answer is C because when x=4 y =19 or (4,19)
