To study the effectiveness of vitamin C in preventing colds, a researcher recruited 200 volunteers. She randomly assigned 100 of

Paul [167]

Answer:

The claim made by the researcher lacks the validity on basis of reasons as indicated in the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The claim made by the researcher is not valid on basis of following reasons:

Interacting variables are not mapped accurately. The additional variables as the health status of the volunteers, eating and fitness habits are not considered in the consideration. This results in a in complete validation.
The placebo effect is not catered accordingly. As the half of the volunteers are taking nothing, this is not the direct influence of the placebo and thus double-blinded testing for placebo effect is to be ensured in future experiments.
The environmental effects are not considered as the effect under study is dependent on the environmental effects, thus the claim is biased and the generalization is not valid.

What is an equation of the line that passes through

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

For the perpendicular of an equation you need to flip the fraction and change the sign from positive to negative or if it's negative to positive. 3/2 is changed to -2/3 which when multiplied by -2 gives you 4/3 and 4/3+5/3 is equal to 3.

Jason inherited a piece of land from his great-uncle. Owners in the area claim that there is a 45% chance that the land has oil.

Licemer1 [7]

So,

We are trying to find the compound probability of there BEING oil and the test predicting NO oil.

The percent chance of there actually being oil is 45%. We can convert this into fraction form and simplify it.

45% --> $\frac{45}{100}$

$\frac{45}{100}--\ \textgreater \ \frac{3*3*5}{2*2*5*5}$

$\frac{3*3*5}{2*2*5*5}--\ \textgreater \ \frac{3*3}{2*2*5}$

$\frac{3*3}{2*2*5}--\ \textgreater \ \frac{9}{20}$

That is the simplified fraction form.

The kit has an 80% accuracy rate. Since we are assuming that the land has oil, we need the probability that the kit predicts no oil.

The probability that the kit detects no oil will be the chance that the kit is not accurate, which is 20% (100 - 80 = 20). We can also convert this into fraction form and simplify it.

20% --> $\frac{20}{100}$

$\frac{20}{100}--\ \textgreater \ \frac{2}{10}$

$\frac{2}{10}--\ \textgreater \ \frac{1}{5}$

That is the probability of the kit not being accurate (not predicting any oil).

To find the compound probability of there being oil and the kit not predicting any oil, we simply multiply both fractions together.

$\frac{9}{20}*\frac{1}{5}$

$\frac{9}{20*5}$

$\frac{9}{100}$

So the probability of there BEING oil and the kit predicting NO oil is 9 in 100 chances.
