A study was done on the batting averages for two baseball players: Hitmore and Bunter. Data were collected over a period of time

for baseball parks that are natural and artificial turf. It was found that Hitmore does better overall (.e., has a better batting average). However, for both natural and artificial turf separately, Bunter does better. Which of the following is correct?
This is an example of a negative association between variables.
This is an example of Simpson's Paradox.
"Turf" is a lurking variable in this example
Both (B) and (C) are correct
This situation is mathematically impossible

Answer:

Both (B) and (C) are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Explaining in simple terms, The Simpson's paradox simply describes a phenomenon which occurs when observable trends in a relationship, which are obvious during singular evaluation of the variables disappears when each of this relationships are combined. This is what played out when hitmire appears to d well on both of natyraknamd artificial turf when separately compared, but isn't the same when the turf data was combined. Also, performance may actually not be related to the turf as turf may Just be. a lurking variable causing a spurious association in performance.

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

4.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

6600 * 107/100 = 66*107 = 7062.

3500 * 101/100 = 35x101 = 3535

7062+3535=10597. Original worth: 10100

10597-10100 = 497

497/10100 = 0.0492079208, or 4.92%, rounds to 4.9%

What is the range of the function f(x) = 3x2 + 6x – 8?
timama [110]

Answer:

Range is {y | y ≥ –11}


Step-by-step explanation:

This is quadratic equation.

<em>A quadratic equation's range can be found if we find the vertex.</em>

For quadratic equations that have a positive number in front of  x^{2} , it is upward opening and thus <u>all the numbers greater than or equal to the minimum value of vertex is the range.</u>


The formula for vertex of a parabola is:

Vertex =  (-\frac{b}{2a}, f(-\frac{b}{2a})

Where,

  • a is the coefficient of x^{2}
  • b is the coefficient of x

From our equation given, a=3  and  b=6

Now, x coordinate of vertex is  x=-\frac{b}{2a}\\x=-\frac{6}{(2)(3)}\\x=-\frac{6}{6}\\x=-1

y coordinate of the vertex IS THE MINIMUM VALUE that we want. We get this by plugging in the x value [ x=-1 ] into the equation. So we have:

3(-1)^{2}+6(-1)-8\\=-11


Hence, the range would be all numbers greater than or equal to -11  

Third answer choice is the right one.
