the treatment status of the experimental subjects?

To eliminate grounds for malpractice suits
To ensure subjects were assigned randomly to treatments
To remove a possible source of bias
To make sure nobody is injured
To avoid the placebo effect

A zookeeper weighed an African elephant to be 9 × 103 pounds and an African lion to be 4 × 102 pounds. How many times greater is the weight of the elephant than the weight of the lion? A. 2.25x 10 B. 5 C. 13x10 D. 3.6x10

Answers

Answer:

2.25 x 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we were given :

The weight of the Elephant = 9 × 10³ pounds

The weight of the African Lion = 4 × 10² pounds

We would compare both weights to determine which size is bigger

Weight of Elephant : Weight of Lion

9× 10³ : 4 × 10²

= 9 × 10³/4 × 10²

= 2.25 × 10¹

= 2.25 × 10

The weight of the elephant is 2.25 × 10 times greater than the weight of the lion.

Transformation is the movement of a point from one place to another. If an object is transformed, all the points of the object are being changed. There are different types of transformation which are: Reflection, rotation, translation  and dilation.

Reflection of a point is the flipping of a point. If a point A(x, y) is reflected across the x axis, the new point is A'(x, -y). If a point B(x, y) is reflected across the y axis, the new point is A'(-x, y).

The coordinates of point L on a coordinate grid are (−2, −4), if Point L is reflected across the y-axis to obtain point M, the coordinates of M is at (2, -4).

Tristan wants to buy a car and has a choice between two different banks. One bank is offering a simple interest rate of 3% and the other bank is offering a rate of 2.5% compounded annually. If Tristan decides to deposit $7,000 for 4 years, which bank would be the better deal? 1. a simple interest rate of 3% 2. a compound interest rate of 2.5%

Answers

Answer:

The bank offering simple interest at rate of 3% for four years

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

To find out which deal would be better, we have to find how much accrued on the simple and compound interest.

Data;

Principal (P) = $7,000

Time = 4 years

Simple interest rate = 3%

S.I = PRT / 100

S.I = (7000 × 3 × 4) / 100

S.I = $840

In four years, he would have $7000 + $840 = $7840.

For compound interest,

C.I = P(1 + r/n)^nt

Where n = number of time compounded = 1 (since it's annually)

rate = 2.5% = 2.5/ 100 = 0.025

C.I = 7000(1 + 0.025/1)⁽¹*⁴⁾

C.I = 7000 (1 + 0.025)⁴

C.I = 7000×(1.025)⁴

C.I = 7000 × 1.1038

C.I = $7726.6

In four years he would have $7,726.6

After calculating and evaluating both option, it's advisable for him to select the bank offering a simple interest of 3% for four years

Answer:

x = 20 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, it is important to know that the measure of a line is 180 degrees.  With this in mind, let's build an equation:

3x + 80 + 2x = 180

Now that we have this equation, let's solve for x.

3x + 80 + 2x = 180

5x + 80 = 180

5x = 100

x = 20

Hence, x is 20 degrees.

A medical equipment industry manufactures X-ray machines. The unit cost (the cost in dollars to make each X-ray machine) depends on the number of machines made. If machines are made, then the unit cost is given by the function . What is the minimum unit cost?Do not round your answer.

Answers

Answer:

$14,362

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the minimum unit cost is shown below:

Given that

0.6x^2 - 108x + 19,222

And as we know that the quadratic equation form is

ax^2 + bx + c

where

a = 0.6

b = -108

c = 19,222

Now for determining the minimal cost we applied the following formula which is

[tex]= \frac{-b}{2a} \\\\ = \frac{-(-108)}{2\times 0.6} \\\\ = \frac{108}{1.2}[/tex]

= 90

Now put these values to the above equation

A restaurant serves only tacos and enchiladas. If 60% of everyone who ate at the restaurant on a certain day ordered tacos, what percentage of those who ate at the restaurant ordered enchiladas that day

Answers

Answer:

i. 70%

ii. 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in the question,  it is given that 60% of everyone is ordered tacos so 40% of everyone is ordered enchiladas

i. Now if half ordered tacos that means out of these 30 orders enchiladas.

since 30 ordered tacos that means 70% ordered enchiladas

ii. Now for 3 by 4 we have to assume the number of people who ordered only  enchiladas be x

So,

For both,  it would be 0.75 x

And, the number of people who did not order is 40 as 60 tacos are ordered by people

So, the percentage is

= 40 × 0.75 + 40

= 30 + 40

= 70%

*Marie made a model (shown below) of the square pyramid she plans to build when she grows up. Find the surface area of the model. 8 12 12

Answers

Answer:

336m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle area is half of base times height so: 1/2*8*12=48m^2

There are 4 triangles so 48*4=192

Then the square base area is side times side so: 12*12=144m^2

Then surface area of model is 192m^2+144m^2=336m^2

Answer:

336 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the surface area of this pyramid by finding the surface area of one of the sides, multiplying it by 4 (as there are 4 sides to the pyramid) then adding it to the surface area of the base.

Each side of this (excluding the base) is a triangle, and to find the area of a triangle we use the equation [tex]\frac{b \cdot h}{2}[/tex].

[tex]\frac{12 \cdot 8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{96}{2}[/tex]

48.

So, one side of this is 48. Multiplying it by 4 gets us 192.

Now we have to add the area of the base. The area of the bass is a square with side lengths of 12, so we can square 12 to get the area of the bass. 12² = 144.

Now let's add these numbers:

192+144 = 336

So, 336 m² is what this comes out to.

Given: r || s, and t is a transversal that cuts both r and s. Prove: <1 = <5, <2 = <6, <3 = <7, and <4 = <8 Write a paragraph proof to prove that the corresponding angles shown are congruent.

Answers

Answer:

Lines r and s are parallel as Corresponding Angles given. There are four pairs of corresponding angles: angle 1 and angle 5, angle 2 and angle 6, angle 3 and angle 7, and angle 4 and angle 8. Since r and s are parallel, the slope of r is equal to the slope of s. Since t is a straight line, the slope of t is the same at both intersections, by the definition of a straight line. Thus, the corresponding angles created at both intersections must have the same measure, since the difference of the slopes at each intersection is the same, and the intersections share a common line. So, corresponding angles must have equal measure. Therefore, by definition of congruent angles, corresponding angles are congruent: angle 1 is congruent to angle 5, angle 2 is congruent to angle 6, angle 3 is congruent to angle 7, and angle 4 is congruent to angle 8.

Plane A is descending toward the local airport, and plane B is ascending from the same airport. Plane A is descending at a rate of 2,500 feet per minute. Plane B is ascending at a rate of 4,000 feet per minute. If plane A is currently at an altitude of 14,000 feet and plane B is at an altitude of 1,000 feet, how long will it take them to be at the same altitude? The equation representing plane A’s descent is y = -2,500x + 14,000. The equation representing plane B’s ascent is y = 4,000x + 1,000. In both equations, y represents altitude and x represents time in minutes.

Answers

Answer: 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Plane A's descent :

y = -2,500x + 14,000

Plane B's Ascent :

y = 4,000x + 1,000

where y = altitude x = minute

Time to be at the same altitude :

Being at the same altitude means ;

Plane A's descent = Plane B's Ascent

-2,500x + 14,000 = 4,000x + 1,000

-2500x - 4000x = 1000 - 14000

-6500x = - 13000

x = 13000 / 6500

x = 2

Then, we analyze the circle will have for the circle B:

- It has a center in x=-4 and y=-3.

- It radius can be calculated from the distance from the center (x,y)=(-4,-3) to one of its points (x,y)=(-4, -1). Then, its radius is r=2.

Then, we can write the equation as:

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\\\\h=-4\\k=-3\\r=2\\\\(x+4)^2+(y+3)^2=4[/tex]

we analyze the circle will have for the circle F:
