An experiment is conducted examining the effects of a new type of toothpaste on reducing cavities. Individuals in the treatment condition are given the new toothpaste; individuals in the control condition are given the standard toothpaste, but are told that they're receiving the new toothpaste. At the end of the experiment, the control group participants demonstrate a slightly higher decline in cavities. This is an example of a(n):____.
a. Wording bias.
b. Voluntary response bias.
c. Over-sampling effect.
d. Placebo effect.
d. Hawthorne effect.

Answers

Answer 1

The experimental effect highlighted by the scenario described would most likely be an example of placebo effect.

An observed change in the control group which are being given the placebo would have been triggered due to psychological expectation based on the information given. Hence, this is called the placebo effect.

The standard toothpaste was not suppose to cause decline in cavities, however, since the group have been told that they we given the new toothpaste which is said to reduce cavities, this could trigger a psychological change hence causing them to have higher cavity decline.

8. What is the relationship between multiplying and factoring?​

Answers

Answer:

A factor is one of the constants or variables that is multiplied with another factor to produce a term. The term 4x has factors 4 and x. To factor means to separate what is being multiplied. So factoring “takes apart” the product of multiplying.

After driving x miles, the first plan costs

60 + 0.70x

dollars, while the second plan costs

0.80x

dollars.

The plans cost the same when these prices are equal:

60 + 0.70x = 0.80x

Solve for x :

60 = 0.80x - 0.70x

60 = 0.10x

x = 60/0.10

x = 600

Step-by-step explanation:

In y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. With that being said, this will mean that -2 is the slope and -18 is the y-intercept.

4. If the submersible dove straight down, what is the distance between the submersible's starting position at 2:15 and its position at 2:18? Show your work.

Write your answer in the space below.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1. -40 - 180 = -220

2. - 40 - 180 - 175 = -395

3. -395 - 185 = -580

4. starting position of submersible at 2:15 = -40

position at 2:18 = -580

therefore, their distance = -580 -(-40) = -540.

at the fish market, a whole fish costs $4.20. If the body costs $1 more than the tail, and the body costs $2 more than the head, how much does the head cost?

Answers

Answer:

$ 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

if we assume head costs $ x then,

body will cost $x + 2 (2 more than head)

and tail will cost $x+1

x+x+2+x+1 = $ 4.20

or, 3x = 4.20-3

or, x= 1.20/3

therefore, x=0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use this formula to find the slope⤵⤵⤵

[tex] \frac{y _{2} - y _{1} }{x _{2} - x _{1} } [/tex]

(Sorry if it's a bit small btw)

Now we plug in the values accordingly:

-3 - (-3) = -3 + 3 = 0

-19 - (-9) = -19 + 9 = -10

Slope = 0/-10

So we have 0/-10, which means our slope is actually just 0.

(This also means that the line on the graph will be horizontal.)

The chief engineer is in charge of deciding the mountainous road-network that will be kept open (cleared of debris and maintained regularly) during the winter months. Each road connects different small towns in the mountains, and all towns are connected to each other either directly or indirectly. Each road is associated with a value indicating the level of danger in maintaining that road during winter months. There are many subsets of roads such that the roads in such subsets keep the towns connected directly or indirectly. Each subset is assigned a cost of maintenance, which is directly proportional to the highest danger level of the road present in that subset. The engineer wants to select the smallest subset that keeps the towns connected directly or indirectly and that also has the lowest cost of maintenance. Develop an algorithm to find such a subset. Justify the correctness of your algorithm and derive its runtime.

write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 2x+4y= 14 a need goes through (4,6)

Answers

Answer:  4x-2y = 4

This can be simplified to 2x-y = 2

Solving for y leads to y = 2x-2

========================================================

Explanation:

Anything perpendicular to Ax+By = C is of the form Bx-Ay = D

The given equation 2x+4y = 14 tells us that A = 2, B = 4, C = 14.

So Bx-Ay = D updates to 4x-2y = D.

We'll plug in the coordinates of the given point (x,y) = (4,6) to solve for D.

4x-2y = D

D = 4x-2y

D = 4(4)-2(6)

D = 16-12

D = 4

So 4x-2y = D updates to 4x-2y = 4

Optionally, we can divide each term by 2 to go from 4x-2y = 4 to 2x-y = 2

If we wanted to solve for y, then we'd get y = 2x-2

A secured loan would most likely be used to pay for a car, the correct option is B.

We are given that;

The four options

Now,

A secured loan is a loan that is backed up by collateral pledged by the borrower, such as a car or property.

The lender can sell the collateral to cover repayment of the loan if the borrower defaults.

Car, since it is a common type of collateral for secured loans.

College, groceries and a phone are less likely to be used as collateral for secured loans, since they are either intangible, perishable or low-value assets.

Therefore, by loan the answer will be car.
