A survey of physicians in 1979 found that some doctors give a placebo to patients who complain of pain for which the physician c

an find no cause. If the patients' pain improves, these doctors conclude that it had no physical basis. The medical researchers who conducted the survey claimed that these doctors do not understand the placebo effect. Why?

Below are the few reasons:

- There may have been a physical basis and yet the placebo can seem like it worked due to the patients mindset that they will get better. 
<span>- Also, the doctors must not tell the patient that they will be taking a placebo. They must assure the patient that the "pill" will cure their problems.</span>

inysia [295]

Answer: $52.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Today's price= $58.63

Yesterday's price= y

Difference= $5.92

y+5.92 = 58.63

y = 58.63 - 5.92

Ms. Mwanted to estimate the height of the Republic Plaza building in downtown Denver. She has an app on
Volgvan

Answer:

<em>The height of the bullding is 717 ft</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Right Triangles</u>

The trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, tangent, etc.) are defined as relations between the triangle's side lengths.

The tangent ratio for an internal angle A is:

\displaystyle \tan A=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}

The image below shows the situation where Ms. M wanted to estimate the height of the Republic Plaza building in downtown Denver.

The angle A is given by his phone's app as A= 82° and the distance from her location and the building is 100 ft. The angle formed by the building and the ground is 90°, thus the tangent ratio must be satisfied. The distance h is the opposite leg to angle A and 100 ft is the adjacent leg, thus:

\displaystyle \tan 82^\circ=\frac{h}{100}

Solving for h:

h = 100\tan 82^\circ

Computing:

h = 711.5 ft

We must add the height of Ms, M's eyes. The height of the building is

711.5 ft + 5 ft = 716.5 ft

The height of the building is 717 ft

Each year for 4 years, a farmer increased the number of trees in a certain orchard by of the number of trees in the orchard the
Neko [114]

Answer:

The number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s say that x is number of trees at the begging of the first year, we know that for four years the number of trees were incised by 1/4 of the number of trees of the preceding year, so at the end of the first year the number of trees wasx+\frac{1}{4} x=\frac{5}{4} x, and for the next three years we have that

                             Start                                          End

Second year     \frac{5}{4}x --------------   \frac{5}{4}x+\frac{1}{4}(\frac{5}{4}x) =\frac{5}{4}x+ \frac{5}{16}x=\frac{25}{16}x=(\frac{5}{4} )^{2}x

Third year    (\frac{5}{4} )^{2}x-------------(\frac{5}{4})^{2}x+\frac{1}{4}((\frac{5}{4})^{2}x) =(\frac{5}{4})^{2}x+\frac{5^{2} }{4^{3} } x=(\frac{5}{4})^{3}x

Fourth year (\frac{5}{4})^{3}x--------------(\frac{5}{4})^{3}x+\frac{1}{4}((\frac{5}{4})^{3}x) =(\frac{5}{4})^{3}x+\frac{5^{3} }{4^{4} } x=(\frac{5}{4})^{4}x.

So  the formula to calculate the number of trees in the fourth year  is  

(\frac{5}{4} )^{4} x, we know that all of the trees thrived and there were 6250 at the end of 4 year period, then  

6250=(\frac{5}{4} )^{4}x⇒x=\frac{6250*4^{4} }{5^{4} }= \frac{10*5^{4}*4^{4} }{5^{4} }=2560.

Therefore the number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.
