Answer:
125
Step-by-step explanation:
it is the multiflication of 5 by itself 3 times (5×5×5=125)
1.) -4 , -2 , 1 , 3 , |-5|
-4 and -2 are first because they are the least, then 1 and 3 are next. The absolute value of -5 is last because it has the greatest value, 5. (The absolute value of a negative number is the same number but positive)
2.) |8| , -5 , 0 , |-9| , 11
The absolute value if 8 is first because it has the least value, -8. (The absolute value of a positive number is the same number but negative) Then -5 and 0 are next. The absolute value of -9 is next because it is actually 9, and 11 is last because it has the greatest value.
5y = 2x.....y = (2/5)x
y = (2/5)x
10y = 4x.....y = 4/10x....y = (2/5)x
5xy = 2....y = 2/(5x) <==== this does not belong because it is not a linear equation like the rest of them are.
Answer:
To provide a baseline for judging the survival rates of infants who received whole-body cooling
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, the purpose of the experiment is to see whether reducing body temperature for three days after birth increased the rate of survival without brain damage.
Then, the proposed method (whole-body cooling) has to be contrasted with the baseline, in this case, the "usual care". If we want to know if this proposed method is statistically better, we have to compare with these baseline with random sampling out of the same population.
If it is not compared to nothing or to a new method, it wouldn't be possible to conclude if the method is better or not than the usual care.
