Exercise 1.6 introduces a study on the relationship between socio-economic class and unethical behavior. As part of this study 1

29 University of (California Berkeley undergraduates were asked to identify themselves as having low or high social-class by comparing themselves to others with the most (least) money, most (least) education, and most (least) respected jobs. They were also presented with a jar of individually wrapped candies and informed that the candies were for children in a nearby laboratory, but that they could take some if they wanted. After completing some unrelated tasks, participants reported the number of candies they had taken. It was found that those who were identified as upper-class took more candy than others.
A. Identify the population of interest and the sample in this study.
B. Comment on whether or not the results of the study can be generalized to the population, and if the findings of the study can be used to establish causal relationships.

Answer:

(A) Population: UCB undergraduates

Sample: The selected 129 UCB undergraduates

(B) Yes, they can be generalized to the population

No, the findings of this <em>single</em> study cannot be used to establish causal relationships between socio-economic classes and unethical behaviors.

Step-by-step explanation:

STUDY: Relationship between socio-economic class and unethical behavior.

The bases for determining social class here are:  money, education, and respected job.

RESULT: Those who identified as upper class took more candy than others.

(A) Identify the population of interest and the sample, in this study.

The population of interest in this study is UCB undergraduates.

The sample in this study is the 129 UCB undergraduates who were selected and who agreed to take part in the experiment. They were the participants who were divided into the two social classes before the experiment was conducted.

(B) The results of the study can be generalized to the population of UCB undergraduates since it's likely that the results would be same in another group of 129 UCB undergraduates.

The findings or results of the study cannot be used to establish causal relationships unless the study is conducted in more universities and majority of the results are same with this.

Does (2,0) work as a solution to the systems of equations to lines 3x+y=6 and 3x-y=6
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if (2,0) works as a solution to the systems of equations, we plug in the values of x and y and simplify. If the results are equal, then (2,0) is a solution.

3x + y = 6:

  • 3(2) + 0 = 6
  • 6 + 0 = 6
  • 6 = 6
  • (2,0) is a solution to this equation.

3x - y = 6:

  • 3(2) - 0 = 6
  • 6 - 0 = 6
  • 6 = 6
  • (2,0) is a solution to this equation.

Therefore, the answer is yes, it does work as a solution.

Please help me with this
N76 [4]

Answer:

ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

One pair of corresponding angles (in the bottom left/right) are already marked for us, and we're also given a pair of corresponding sides (the 8cm ones on the left and right). The two triangles have one more angle in common too - the one they're overlapping on the top corner. So, we have:

- Two pairs of congruent corresponding angles, and

- A pair of congruent corresponding sides between them,

which is enough information to call the triangles congruent by Angle-Side-Angle (ASA).
