What is the most important difference between an experiment and an observational study? An experiment is conducted in a laboratory and an observational study is conducted outside. An experiment has a treated group and a control group while an observational study does not. In an experiment, the researcher applies a treatment to a randomly assigned group and studies the results, while an observational study just looks at things that have happened without intervention. In an experiment, the researcher studies the effects of medical treatments or other scientific results, while an observational study looks at subjects in the social science arena.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In an observational study, we measure or survey members of a sample without trying to affect them. In a controlled experiment, we assign people or things to groups and apply some treatment to one of the groups, while the other group does not receive the treatment.

Answer 2

In an experiment, the researcher applies a treatment to a randomly assigned group and studies the results, while an observational study just looks at things that have happened without intervention.

What is an experiment?

An experiment is designed to test the effect of an intervention or treatment on a particular outcome, by comparing the results from a group that receives the intervention to a control group that does not receive the intervention. In this way, the experiment can establish cause-and-effect relationships and determine if the treatment has a significant effect.

On the other hand, an observational study does not involve any manipulation of the independent variable. It simply observes and records the relationship between variables. Observational studies cannot establish cause-and-effect relationships and the results may be subject to confounding variables, which can make it difficult to interpret the findings.

Hence, the correct answer would be an option (C).

Step-by-step explanation:

First add the whole numbers, then the fractions:

3 + 5 + 5 + 7 = 20

7/8 + 7/8 + 3/16 + 3/16    Change the 7/8's to 14/16:

= 14/16 + 14/16 + 3/16 + 3/16

=  28/16 + 6 /16

= 34 /16

= 2 2/16

Unit sales for new product ABC have varied in the first seven months of this year as follows: Month Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Unit Sales 148 329 491 167 228 285 441 What is the interquartile range (IQR) of the data? Please specify your answer as an integer. Note: Use the following formula to find quartile locations: Lq=(n+1)⋅(q4) where q is the quartile index (e.g., q=1 for the first quartile) and n is the number of data points.

Answers

Answer:

IQR = 274

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the unit sales for the months as:

148, 329, 491, 167, 228, 285, 441

Let's rearrange in ascending the values in ascending order (from lowest to highest), we have:

148, 167, 228, 285, 329, 441, 491

Here the total number of data, n is 7

Let's find the quartile locations using the formula:

[tex] Lq = (n + 1) * (\frac{q}{4}) [/tex]

where q is quartile index.

For first quartile, Q1:

[tex] Lq = (7 + 1) * (\frac{1}{4}) [/tex]

[tex] Lq = 8 * (\frac{1}{4}) = 2 [/tex]

Thus, the 2nd observation in the data is 167.

Q1 = 167

For third quartile, Q3:

[tex] Lq = (7 + 1) * (\frac{3}{4}) [/tex]

[tex] Lq = 8 * (\frac{3}{4}) = 6 [/tex]

Thus, the 6th observation in the data is 441.

Q3 = 441

The interquartile range, IQR will be:

Q3 - Q1

= 441 - 167

= 274

IQR = 274

Brady can feed, water, and clean up after 24 cows in 120 minutes. McKenna takes 360 minutes to care for 24 cows. How long will it take Brady and McKenna working together to care for 24 cows?

Answers

Answer:

Minutes= 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Brady will take care of 24 cows in 120 minutes.

Rate of Brady = 24/120

Mc Kenna takes care of same 24 cows in 360 minutes.

Rate of Mc Kenna = 24/360

Sum of rates = 24/120 + 24/360

Sum of rates =( 72+24)/360

Sum of rates = 96/360

Sum of rates = 96/360

Let's determine how many minutes it will take them total to take of Same 24 cows

Minutes = 24/rate

Minutes = 24/(96/360)

Minutes =( 24*360)/96

Minutes= 90

The rectangular floor of colbys room is 9 feet long and 6 feet wide. What is the area of the floor

Answers

Answer:

  54 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is the product of length and width:

  A = LW = (9 ft)(6 ft)

  A = 54 ft^2

The area of the floor is 54 square feet.

Answer:

area of the rectangular floor = 54 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is the product of the length and width. The floor is rectangular therefore the area of the floor can be calculated by using the area of a rectangle.

area of the rectangular floor = length × width

length = 9 ft

width = 6 ft

area of the rectangular floor = length × width

area of the rectangular floor = 9 × 6

area of the rectangular floor = 54 ft²

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = 4( x + 3/2)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

F(x) =4 x^2 + 12x + 9

= 4 [ x^2 + 3x] + 9

Add (3/2)^2 - (3/2)^2 to the square bracket, we have:

4 [ x^2 + 3x+ (3/2)^2 - (3/2)^2] + 9

4[ (x + 3/2 )^2 - 9/4] + 9

4( x + 3/2)^2 - 9/4 ×4 + 9

4( x + 3/2)^2 - 9 + 9

4( x + 3/2)^2 +0

4( x + 3/2)^2

Note the (3/2)^2 - (3/2)^2 is decoded by dividing b by 2 and squaring it and then subtracting same. Look at the general equation of a circle given below

ax^2 + bx + c

To form a square expression we adopt (b/2)^2 - (b/2)^2 to the general equation provided a = 1;

To make a = 1; we had to factor out 4 from the coefficient of x; making perfect square is of concern when we have ax^2 + bx ; irrespective of 'c' or not.

This is usually referred to as method of completing the square in solving quadratic equation

You launch a water balloon. The function h=-0.08t^2+1.6t+2 models the height h (in feet) of the water balloon after t seconds. What is the initial height of the balloon?

Answers

Answer:

The initial height of the balloon is 2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the balloon in feet after t seconds is given by the following equation:

[tex]h(t) = -0.08t^{2} + 1.6t + 2[/tex]

What is the initial height of the balloon?

This is h when t = 0, that is, h(0). So

[tex]h(0) = -0.08*0^{2} + 1.6*0 + 2 = 2[/tex]

The initial height of the balloon is 2 feet.

Customers arrive at a checkout counter in a department store according to a Poisson distribution at an average of 7 per hour. If it takes approximately 10 minutes to serve each customer, find the mean and variance of the total service time for customers arriving during a 1-hour period. Assume that a sufficient number of servers are available so that no customer must wait for service. What is the probability that the total service time will exceed 2.5 hours? (Use at least four digits after the decimal if rounding.)

Answers

Answer:

the mean service time = 70 minutes

the variance of the total service time for customers arriving during a 1-hour period is 700

the probability that the total service time will exceed 2.5 hours is 0.0012

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Customers arrive at a checkout counter in a department store according to a Poisson distribution at an average of 7 per hour.

If it takes approximately 10 minutes to serve each customer

From the given information:

The mean total service time=  [tex]10 \ minutes * \lambda[/tex]  (i.e the average number to turn up during the hour) .

where;

[tex]\lambda =[/tex]  the average rate per hour i.e  7

Thus; the mean service time = 10 × 7  = 70 minutes

For a Poisson Distribution;

The variance of the  the total service time for customers arriving during a 1-hour period can be expressed by  the relation:

[tex]\sigma(aX) = a* \sigma(X). \\ \\ where ; \sigma = {\sqrt{S^2}} \\ \\ \sigma(service \ time) = 10 * \sigma(arrival \ time) \\ \\S^2 (service \ time) = (10* \sigma(arrival \ time))^2 \\ \\ S^2(service \ time) = 100 * S^2(arrival \ time) \\ \\ = 100*\lambda \\ \\ = 100*7 = 700[/tex]

where S² = variance

What is the probability that the total service time will exceed 2.5 hours?

If we convert 2.5 hours to minutes ; we have

2.5 × 60 minutes =150 minutes

The probability that the total service time will exceed 2.5 hours is as follows:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{S-70}{\sqrt {700}} \ \ \ \ follow \ N(0,1) \\ \\ P(S > 150) = \dfrac{S-70}{\frac{\sqrt{700}>(150-70)}{\sqrt{700}}} \\ \\ =P(Z > -2.5512) \\ \\ =0.0012[/tex]
