A university was interested in examining the overall effectiveness of its online statistics course, along with the effectiveness

of particular aspects of the course. First, the university wanted to see whether the online course was better than a standard course. Second, the university wanted to know whether students learned best using Excel, using Minitab, or using no statistical package at all. The university randomly selected a group of 30 students and administered one of the different variants of the course (i.e., traditional or online, coupled with one of the three software options) to each student. The success of each variant was measured by the students' average improvement between a pre-test and a post-test.
i. Is this a controlled experiment or observational study?
ii. What are the explanatory variables?
A. The students mean pre-test average score.
B. Whether the course was online or traditional.
C. Whether the course was online or traditional and the statistical software used.
iii. The response variable is:
A. the students' mean post-test score.
B. the difference between the students' mean pre-test and post-test scores.
C. an evaluation of course quality provided by an independent rater.
iv. How many treatment groups are there in this study?
A. 3
B. 4
C. 5
D. 6
E. 7

Answer:

i. This is controlled experiment

ii. C. Whether the course was online or traditional and the statistical software used.

iii. B. The difference between students mean pre-test and post-test scores.

iv. D. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is controlled experiment because the university is observing students who take either online course or a standard course. The students have 3 different software available which they can learn. The students are observed based o pre test and post test results.

Determine where V(z)=z4(2z−8)3 is increasing and decreasing.
Marat540 [252]

Answer and Explanation:

A function is said to be increasing, if the derivative of function is f’(x) > 0 on each point. A function is said to be decreasing if f”(x) < 0.

Let y = v (z) be differentiable on the interval (a, b). If two points z1 and z2 belongs to the interval (a, b) such that z1 < z2, then v (z1) ≤ v (z2), the function is increasing in this interval.

Similarly, the function y = v(z) is said to be decreasing, when it is differentiable on the interval (a , b).

Two points z1 and z2 Є (a, b) such that z1 > z2, then v (z1) ≥ v(z2). The function is decreasing on this interval.

The function y = v (z)

The derivative of function Y’ = v’(z) is positive, then the function is increasing.

The function y = v (z)  

The derivative of function y’ is negative, then the function is decreasing.
