Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let the small number be x

Then, the bug number will be: x + 25

Therefore, x + x + 25 = 131

2x + 25 = 131

2x = 131 - 25

2x = 106

x = 106 / 2

x = 53

Small number= 53

Big number = x + 25 = 53 + 25 = 78

2. Let the small number be x

Then, the bug number will be: x + 14

x + x + 14 = 58

2x + 14 = 58

2x = 58 - 14

2x = 44

x = 44/2

x = 22

Small number = 22

Bug number = 22 + 14 = 36

The numbers are 22 and 36.

3. Let number of basketball sold be x

Therefore, number of football sold will be x+3.

Therefore, x + x + 3 = 27

2x + 3 = 27

2x = 27 - 3

2x = 24

x = 24/2

x = 12

12 basketball were sold

Number of footballs sold = 12 + 3 = 15

4. Let calories in bowl of soup x

Hamburger = 2 × x = 2x

Therefore, x + 2x = 738

3x = 738

x = 738/3

x = 246

There are 246 calories in bowl of soup

Calories in hamburgers = 246 × 2 = 492 calories

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Sale Price = $34.8 (answer). This means the cost of the item to you is $34.8. You will pay $34.8 for a item with original price of $43.50 when discounted 20%. In this example, if you buy an item at $43.50 with 20% discount, you will pay 43.50 - 8.7 = 34.8 dollars.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The answer is Option E; both B and C are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Both (b) and (c) are correct. Simpson's paradox is a paradox in which a trend that appears in different groups of data disappears when these groups are combined, and the reverse trend appears for the aggregate data. This result is often encountered in social-science and medical-science statistics, and is particularly confounding when frequency data are unduly given causal interpretations. Simpson's Paradox disappears when causal relations are brought into consideration.

Now, this question is an example of Simpsons paradox because the groups of collected data over a period of time from five major cities showed a trend that StatsAir does better overall, but this trend is reversed when the groups are studied separately to show that air median does better.

So, option B is correct.

Also, City is a variable that influences both the dependent variable and independent variable, causing a spurious association. That is it is the cause of why the 2 results are biased. Thus, city is a lurking variable.

So, option C is also correct
