Answer:
the answer is partial variation
The complete question is;
A surgeon performed two types of surgeries to treat large kidney stones and small kidney stones. Treatment A on large stones was successful 73% of the time, but on small stones it was successful 93% of the time. Treatment B was successful on large stones 69% of the time, but on small stones it was successful 87% of the time. The overall report stated treatment B was more successful. What may make this claim possible?

Simpson's Paradox
Answer:
Correct Option is Simpson's Paradox
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at all the options, The correct option is Simpson's Paradox because the concept of the other options don't depict the paradox displayed in the question.
Now, Simpson's paradox, is simply a phenomenon in probability and statistics, whereby a trend appears in several different groups of data but will disappear or reverse when these groups are combined. This result is often encountered in many areas of statistics and is very problematic especially when frequency data is given causal interpretations. The paradox can be resolved when causal relations are appropriately addressed in the statistical modeling.
Now, in this question, it concluded that treatment B was more successful than treatment A without considering the conditions under which both treatments were carried out neither did it consider the severity of cases of patients involved in the treatment.
Answer:
The probability of Jessica picking 3 consecutive red markers is: (1/6)
The probability of Jessica's first marker being red, but not picking 3 consecutive red markers is:
(3/5)−(1/6)=(13/30)
So i am bit stuck here
what i think is it shouldn't be that complex it should be as simple as chance of Jessica's first marker being red=chance of getting red 1 time i.e P(First marker being red)=(6/10) can any explain me the probability of Jessica's first marker being red=(13/30)?
Step-by-step explanation:
9x + 36 = 8x - 3
solve for x.
x + 36 = -3
x = -39
