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.

What constant do you need to add to each quadratic to complete the square? 1. x2 - 4x = 0 4 2. x2 - 8x = 6 9 3. 3x2 + 18x = 24 1
Radda [10]
1) You must add 4 to each side to complete the square.
2) You must add 16 to each side to complete the square.
3) You must add 27 to each side to complete the square.

Explanation:
1) x²-4x=0
To find the number that we add to both sides, we look at b, the cofficient of x.  It is -4. We divide it by 2 and square it; -4/2 = -2; (-2)² = 4.  This is the value that we add to both sides.

2) x²-8x=6
-8/2 = -4; (-4)²=16
We add 16 to each side to complete the square.

3) 3x²+18x=24
First we can factor a 3 out of the left side:
3(x²+6x) = 24
Our b value is now 6.  6/2 = 3; 3²=9.  The 9 would, however, go in the parentheses, so it would be multiplied by 3, which makes 27; this means we would add 27 to both sides.

Answer this in the next 4 minutes and you can earn the BRAINLIEST answer!!! Please answer ASAP. Thanks in advance! :D

3. is the answer, as you can see D is one and a half units to the right of the y axis at a height of 3 units and C is one and a half units to the left of the y axis with the same height.  So D is "reflected" about the y axis and only the x coordinate changes sign from positive to negative.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer: No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The red line is y=3x+7 and the blue line is y=3x+2

The lines do not intersect at any time. Therefore, this set of equations has no solution. I hope this helps! Pls mark brainliest!! :)

Solve |2x - 1| + 3 = 6.
umka21 [38]

Answer:

x =2                         x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x - 1| + 3 = 6.

Subtract 3 from each side

|2x - 1| + 3-3 = 6-3

|2x - 1|= 3

An absolute value has two solutions, one positive and one negative

2x-1 =3                   2x -1 = -3

Add 1 to all sides

2x-1+1 =3+1             2x-1+1 = -3+1

2x = 4                      2x =-2

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 4/2                 2x/2 = -2/2

x =2                         x = -1
