Scientists want to test a new pair of running shoes. A speed test is performed with two separate groups of participants. The tre

atment group will wear the new pair of running shoes, while the control group will not. It is believed that age and height may affect speed. Which of the following would be most effective in controlling the confounding variables, such as age and height, in this study?
a. A completely randomized design experiment
b. A longitudinal observational study
c. A retrospective observational study
d. A matched-pair design experiment

Answer:

a. A completely randomized design experiment

Step-by-step Explanation:

An experiment that is completely randomised is practically an effective way of controlling and reducing the influence of the confounding variables in a research study, especially when you have a sample that is large enough.

Randomisation will ensure that both the group that will wear the new shoe (treatment group) and the group that will not wear the new shoe (control group) will have averagely the same values for age and height. This will eliminate the chances of these confounding variables of correlating with the independent variable in the study, as there would be no difference, in terms of characteristics, between both groups.

If the largest angle of a triangle is 120° and it is included between sides of 1.5 and 0.5, then (to the nearest tenth) the larg
12345 [234]

Answer:

1.8 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The questions which involve calculating the angles and the sides of a triangle either require the sine rule or the cosine rule. In this question, the two sides that are given are adjacent to each other and the given angle is the included angle. This means that the angle is formed by the intersection of the two lines. Therefore, cosine rule will be used to calculate the length of the largest side of the triangle. The cosine rule is:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B).

The question specifies that a=0.5, B=120°, and c=1.5. Plugging in the values:

b^2 = 0.5^2 + 1.5^2 - 2(0.5)(1.5)*cos(120°).

Simplifying gives:

b^2 = 3.25.

Taking square root on the both sides gives b = 1.8 (rounded to the nearest tenth).

This means that the length of the third side is 1.8 units!!!

___H2 + ___Br2 → ___HBr
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:H2+Br2-->2HBr

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of atoms on the left side must be equal to the amount of atoms on the right side for each element.

On the left you got 2xH and 2xBr.

This means you must have the same amount on the right.

2HBr =2xH + 2xBr

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The staffs takes 7.2 hours to clean 27 rooms

Therefore in one hour, the number of rooms cleaned is

= 7.2/27

= 0.2666

The number of hours required to 15 rooms is

= 0.2666×15

= 4 hours
