One of the major advantage of the two-condition experiment has to do with interpreting the results of the study. Correct scientific methodology does not often allow an investigator to use previously acquired population data when conducting an experiment. For example, in the illustrative problem involving early speaking in children, we used a population mean value of 13.0 months. How do we really know the mean is 13.0 months? Suppose the figures were collected 3 to 5 years before performing the experiment. How do we know that infants haven’t changed over those years? And what about the conditions under which the population data were collected? Were they the same as in the experiment? Isn’t it possible that the people collecting the population data were not as motivated as the experimenter and, hence, were not as careful in collecting the data? Just how were the data collected? By being on hand at the moment that the child spoke the first word? Quite unlikely. The data probably were collected by asking parents when their children first spoke. How accurate, then, is the population mean?
Gabe had 372 apples and r grapes. The total of grapes and apples gabe has are 509. How many grapes did gabe have?
Answer:
9.3
Step-by-step explanation:
if both travel at same speed they will take equal distance and time to reach the middle and collide.
hence, 27/2 =13.5km
speed=distance/time
time = distance/speed
time= 13.5/87 = 0.15517mm hr
0.15517×60 = 9.31minutes
Answer:
-6 ≤ x < ∞
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the domain of the function y = √(x+6) -7.
<h3>Domain</h3>
The domain of a function is the set of x-values for which the function is defined. On a graph, it is the horizontal extent of the graph.
The square root function is undefined for negative arguments, so that limits the domain of the given function:
x+6 ≥ 0
x ≥ -6 . . . . . domain of the given function
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
When the domain is written in interval notation, both the left and right ends of the interval must be specified.
[-6, ∞)
The square bracket identifies -6 as being part of the domain. The parenthesis is used with ∞, because that number has no specific value.
In general, if we have
then
Thus, the first answer choice is correct.
