Are anesthetics safe? The National Halothane Study was a major investigation of the safety of anesthetics used in surgery. Recor

ds of over 850,000 operations performed in 34 major hospitals showed the following death rates for four common anesthetics:
Anesthetic A B C D
Death 1.7% 1.7% 3.4% 1.9%
There seems to be a dear association between the anesthetic used and the death rate of patients. Anesthetic C appears to be dangerous.
A) Select the best explanation for why we call the National Halothane Study an observational study rather than an experiment, even though it compared the results of using different anesthetics in actual surgery.
B) When the study looked at other variables that are confounded with a doctor's choice of anesthetic, it found that Anesthetic C was not causing extra deaths. Suggest several variables that are mixed up with what anesthetic a patient receives.

Answer:

a) An experiment is conducted based on random observations not on certain selected observations.

b) age, blood type etc

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We call the National Halothane Study an observational study rather than an experiment, because the anesthetics  were not randomly chosen. They were prescribed by the doctors.

An experiment is conducted based on random observations not on certain selected observations.

b) There are factors such as age, sex, intensity , limit, tolerance and reactivity of the patient with the particular anesthetics chosen. If these are not carefully studied the results may not be as rewarding as desired.

If an anesthetics is chosen wihtou knowing the age or blood type for tolerance it may result in dangerous situations.

Some patients are highly tolerant with certain medications but others may die.

deff fn [24]
Answer: He can completely decorate 11 cars

Explanation: since he puts 2 snowflakes on each of the 4 windows on one car, in total Jack uses 8 snowflakes per car. If he makes 90 snowflakes, 90 divided by 8 gives you the amount of cars he can decorate. 90/8 = 11.25, but since you can’t have .25 cars the answer is 11.

In a seminar of 1200 people, 65 percent were women, How many men were in the seminar?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

420

Step-by-step explanation:

If there were 1200 people, and 65 percent were women, that means the rest of the crowd are men, which is 35 percent. By multiplying 35 percent by the overall population, 1200, (1200*35/100), you'll get 420 men.

A box is to be constructed with a rectangular base and a height of h cm. The length, l, of the box is 10 cm, and the width, w, i
Svetradugi [14.3K]
<span>The formula for the volume of a box is: Volume = L*W*H We know that the length is 10 cm. We know that the width is twice the height, so W = 2H. Then our volume equation is: Volume = 10*2H*H Volume = 20*H^2 Since H^2 is in the equation, this is a quadratic equation.</span>

​= <br> The solution set is <br> ​ 1/2(10x+16)-13=-3/5(15x-35)
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer: 13/7 or as a decimal 1.857142857

How did i get the answer:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

so 1/2 of 10 is 5, 1/2 of 16 is 8

-3/5 of 15 is -9 and -3/5 of -35 is POSITIVE 21

all together should look like 5x+8+−13=−9x+21

(now we have to combine like terms)

8+ -13= -5

5x -5 = -9x+21

Step 2: Add 9x to both sides

5x + 9x= 14x

14x -5 = 21

Step 3: Add 5 to both sides.

21+5= 26

14x=26

Step 4: Divide both sides by 14.

26/14= 1.85714286 or 13/7
