A cosmetics company decides to compare its new nail polish product, Bella, with three other nail polish brands: Primrose, Shine,

and Glo. In an experiment, participants are divided into four groups. Each group of women is asked to wear nail polish from one of the four brands. The results for Primrose, Shine, and Glo are compared with those for Bella, and a conclusion is drawn. What does the type of nail polish represent in this case?

Answer=B
The explanatory variable is another term for the independent variable. The independent variable is the 'thing' that YOU decide to change/manipulate in an experiment. The type of nail polish given was the independent variable for this experiment.

Consider the accompanying data on breaking load (kg/25mm width) for various fabrics in both an unabraded condition and an abrade
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The critical value for a one-tailed test with 7 degrees of freedom and level of significance α=0.01 is tc=2.998.

The test statistic (t=1.729) is below the critical value and falls within the acceptance region, so it is failed to reject the null hypothesis.

At a significance level of 0.01, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the true difference is significantly bigger than 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a matched-pair t-test for the difference.

We have the null and alternative hypothesis written as:

H_0: \mu_d=0\\\\H_a: \mu_d>0

We have n=8 pairs of data. We calculate the difference as:

d_1=U_1-A_1=36.4-28.5=7.9

Then, with this procedure we get the sample for d:

d=[7.9,\, 35,\, 5.5,\, 4.2,\, 6.7,\, -3.7,\, -0.9,\, 3.3]

The sample mean and standard deviation are:

M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{8}(7.9+35+5.5+. . .+3.3)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{58}{8}\\\\\\M=7.25\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{7}((7.9-7.25)^2+(35-7.25)^2+(5.5-7.25)^2+. . . +(3.3-7.25)^2)}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{985.08}{7}}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{140.73}=11.86\\\\\\

Now, we can perform the one-tailed hypothesis test.

The significance level is 0.01.

The sample has a size n=8.

The sample mean is M=7.25.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=11.86.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{11.86}{\sqrt{8}}=4.1931

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{7.25-0}{4.1931}=\dfrac{7.25}{4.1931}=1.729

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=8-1=7

This test is a right-tailed test, with 7 degrees of freedom and t=1.729, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

\text{P-value}=P(t>1.729)=0.0637

As the P-value (0.0637) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

At a significance level of 0.01, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the true difference is significantly bigger than 0.

If we use the critical value approach, the critical value for a one-tailed test with 7 degrees of freedom and level of significance α=0.01 is tc=2.998. The test statistic is below the critical value and falls within the acceptance region, so it is failed to reject the null hypothesis.

Is ( − 3,2 ) a solution of -4x - 10y &lt; -9?<br><br>Yes or no
yanalaym [24]

Replace x and y in the equation with the given point and solve:

-4(-3) - 10(2) = 12 -20 = -8

-8 is not less than -9

(-3,2) is not a solution.

What is the area of this trapezoid?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer: 357 cm²

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, were asked to find the area of the trapezoid shown. Remember that a trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides. The formula for the area of a trapezoid is shown below

The b's are the bases or the parallel sides and the h represents the height.

So in the trapezoid shown, the bases are 15 cm and 27 cm and the height is 17 cm.

Plugging this information into the formula, we have .

Next, the order of operations tells us that we must simplify inside the parentheses first. 15 cm + 27 cm is 42 cm and we have

1/2 × 42 cm is 21 cm and we have (21 cm)(17 cm) which is 357 cm².

So the area of the trapezoid shown is 357 cm².

Please help me with the following questions. Thanks in advance!!
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Eight

590 = 1800 e^(-0.4t)     Divide by 1800

0.32778 = e^(-0.4t)       Put the value for e in the denominator.

0.32778 = 1 / e^(0.4t)   Notice the sign's gone. Multiply both sides by e^(0.4t)

0.32778 *e^(0.4t) = 1    Divide by 0.32778

e^(0.4t) = 3.0508          Take the natural log of both sides.

0.4t = 1.11542                 Divide both sides by 0.4

t = 2.78855

You should put this in the original equation to see if it checks. It does.

=============================

Nine

3^(3 - 3x) + 6 = 42         Subtract 6 from both sides

3^(3 - 3x) = 36               Take the log of both sides.

(3 - 3x) ln(3) = ln 36

(3 - 3x) *1.098612 = 3.58352   Divide by 1.098612

3 - 3x = 3.26186             Subtract 3 from both sides

- 3x = 0.26186                 Divide by - 3

x = - 0.087287
