Answer: D) the significance level of the test

=======================================================

Explanation:

The significance level of the test, also known as "alpha", is the probability of making a type 1 error. A type 1 error is where you reject the null hypothesis but it was true all along.

The null hypothesis is where we test a certain probability distribution (eg: normal distribution). Specifically we gather a sample of values and compute the test statistic. If the probability of getting that test statistic or more extreme is smaller than alpha, then we reject the null. This probability value is known as the p-value.

If you lower the alpha value, then that will make it more likely you do not reject the null. Consider an example where alpha = 0.10 to start with. If you get a p-value of 0.02, then you would reject the null. The same would apply for alpha = 0.05; however, with alpha = 0.01, the p-value is no longer smaller than alpha. At this point we do not reject the null. Your textbook may use the phrasing "fail to reject the null".

Going in the opposite direction, increasing the alpha value will make it more likely to reject the null. Each time you adjust the alpha value, keep the p-value to some fixed number (between 0 and 1).

Marcus wants to use a model to determine the difference
grigory [225]

Electron transfer theory describes the parameters which control the rate at which an electron is transferred from one atom or molecule to another.

<h3>What was the basic principle of Marcus theory?</h3>
  • In theoretical chemistry, Marcus theory is a theory originally developed by Rudolph A. Marcus, starting in 1956, to explain the rates of electron transfer reactions – the rate at which an electron can move or jump from one chemical species.
  • Marcus' method (also referred to as Marcus's method and Method of Marcus) is a structural analysis method which was designed to design concrete slabs with rectangular, orthogonal shapes. It represents an adaptation of the strip method.
  • Marcus Hush theory (M-H theory) was developed in 1956 by Rudolph A. Marcus which explains the fundamentals of the redox/ electron transfer reactions in terms of the rate of jumping/moving an electron from oxidant species (electron donor) to the reductant (electron acceptor).
  • The "Marcus Inverted Region" (MIR) is that part of the function of rate constant versus free energy where a chemical reaction becomes slower as it becomes more exothermic.

We want to see how we can model the difference: -8 - 3 + 3

The correct option is D:

"add 3 positive counters and 3 negative counters"

We know that Marcus starts with 8 negative counters, corresponding to the first term in our difference.

Now, let's study the math of our expression.

-8 - 3 + 3

Remember that we can perform the operation in any order we want, so we can write this as:

-8 + (-3 + 3)

Notice that the thing inside the parentheses is equal to zero, so we have:

- 8 + (-3 + 3) = -8

So to not change the value, we add 3 and we subtract 3.

Now if we have 8 negative counters, and we want to add 3 positive counters and not change the value, then we also need to add 3 negative counters to "cancel" the 3 positive counters we added.

Then the correct option is D.

Nancy has a big chocolate bar shaped like a rectangular prism. It is 15 centimeters long, 14 centimeters wide, and 2 centimeters
Leya [2.2K]

Answer: 420 cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume V of a rectangular prism is given by:

V=(length)(width)(thickness)

If the chocolate bar has the following dimensions:

length=15 cm

width=14 cm

thickness=2 cm

Its volume is:

V=(15 cm)(14 cm)(2 cm)

V=420 cm^{3}

The values of x and y vary directly
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

y = (1/4)x

Step-by-step explanation:

"Direct variation" here signifies y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Then y = kx.  Here we are to find k using the info that x = 12 and y = 3:

3 = k(12), or

k = 3/12, or k = 1/4

Then y = (1/4)x

Find the perimeter of this shape
telo118 [61]
To find the circumference of a semi-circle, it would be 1/2<span> π × d. So, pi (3.14) times the diameter, 5 would be 15.7, but then we would need to multiply it by 1/2 to get the circumference for half the circle, and that will get you 7.85. Now you can add all the lengths now. 7.85 + 7 + 5 + 7 = 26.85. Hope this helps! Let me know if you still don't get it. <3</span>
