The largest possible value of b is 10, since for some x = x₀ it could be the case that f(x₀) = -5 and g(x₀) = -2; then f(x₀) g(x₀) = -5 × -2 = 10.
Answer: x=18
Step-by-step explanation: 16-18=-2
Good luck! :)
Answer: D. To produce treatment groups with similar characteristics
Step-by-step explanation:
By using randomization in sampling, the Sample would be more representative of the Population it is based off of because different demographic characteristics may be picked.
This leads to a situation where the groups have similar characteristics between themselves thereby making it easier for comparison. For example, Group 1 would have certain types of people that will be represented in Group 2 and Group 3 as well. That way the effects of the drug can be properly studied as it affects different people. For instance, say there are 4 obese people in a sample of 10, instead of group one having all obese people, randomization may be able to give group one, 2 obese people and 2 obese people to group 2 as well. That way when comparing, the effects of the drug on the two groups is easier to be compared because the two groups have similar people.
Answer: x=13
explanation:
-2x+6=-20
subtract 6 from both sides
-2x=-26
divide -2 by both sides
two negatives equals a positive
x=13
Answer:
-5/4 or -1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
the points are (-6, -3) and (-2, -8)
the formula for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1
y2 is -8
y1 is -3
x2 is -2
x1 is -6
(-8+3)/(-2+6)
(-5)/(4)
-5/4 or -1.25
