Answer:
D.the treatment group (placebo or reading strategies)
Step-by-step explanation:
This cognitive psychologists wants to find out if better reading strategies when taught to students would have any effect on their test scores.
So the dependent variable in this experiment would be the test scores that she wants to find from the test.
While the independent variable would be the treatment group which is the placebo or treatment. The psychologist wants to measure outcomes in this dependent variable using changes in the independent variable (placebo/treatment).
Her horizontal distance to the rim satisfies the ratio
(10 ft -6 ft)/distance = tan(25°)
so the distance is
distance = (4 ft)/tan(25°) ≈ 9 ft
The scale factor would be 3.5
Let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to "improper" and then proceed,
