A study published in 2010 showed that city dwellers have a higher risk of developing anxiety disorders and a higher risk of developing mood disorders than those who live in the country. A follow-up study published in 2011 used brain scans of city dwellers and country dwellers as they took a difficult math test.1 To increase the stress of the participants, those conducting the study tried to humiliate the participants by telling them how poorly they were doing on the test. The brain scans showed very different levels of activity in stress centers of the brain, with the urban dwellers having greater brain activity than rural dwellers in areas that react to stress.

Required:

a. Is the 2010 study an experiment or an observational study?
i. Experiment
ii. Observational study

b. Can we conclude from the 2010 study that living in a city increases a person's likelihood of developing an anxiety disorder or mood disorder?
i. Yes
ii. No

c. Is the 2011 study an experiment or an observational study?
i. Experiment
ii. Observational study

d. Can we conclude from the 2011 study that living in a city increases activity in stress centers of the brain when a person is under stress?
i. Yes
ii. No

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a.It is a controlled experiment because it is clearly seen that an established hypothesis or study is being verified through an experiment, now in this case the hypothesis is tested through an experiment where excessive stress is placed on the Participants during their math exam to effectively verify that people in urban or city areas live with more stress than people in rural areas.

2..As now that the previously established hypothesis has been verified, it is concluded that people who live in the city live with more anxiety and stress than people who live in rural areas.

If a function f(x) is defined as 3x2 + x + 2, what is the value of Lim h-0 f(x+h)-f(x)/h? A. 3x + 1 B. 3x + 2 C. 6x + 1 D. 6x + 2

Answers

Answer:

[tex] f(x+h) = 3(x+h)^2 +(x+h) +2= 3(x^2 +2xh+h^2) +x+h+2[/tex]

[tex]f(x+h) = 3x^2 +6xh +3h^2 +x+h+2= 3x^2 +6xh +x+h+ 3h^2 +2[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] lim_{h \to 0} \frac{3x^2 +6xh +x+h+ 3h^2 +2 -3x^2 -x-2}{h}[/tex]

And if we simplfy we got:

The Sky Train from the terminal to the rental car and longterm parking center is supposed to arrive every eight minutes. The waiting times for the train are known to follow a uniform distribution. What is the average waiting time (in minutes)

Answers

Answer:

Average waiting time = 4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From this question, we are told that the sky train is supposed to arrive every 8 minutes.

Thus, the waiting time of the passengers for the train = 8 minutes.

Then, the average waiting time is simply the mean or 50th percentile of the total waiting time.

So, average waiting time = 50% × 8

Average waiting time = 4 minutes

Which outcome has the highest probability of occurring based on the data? a. A case in Domestic Relations Court being reversed b. A case in Common Pleas Court being reversed c. A case in Municipal Court being reversed d. There is not enough information to determine the answer

Answers

ANSWER: "There is not enough information to determine the answer". Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a case that was ruled by a court to be reversed by a higher court, they must be conditions in the ruling of the lower court that has been reconsidered by the higher court. This is regardless of the jurisdiction of the court or judge that ruled the case.

A case from all the courts in the options can be reversed by a higher court if the courts judgement lacks merit by the higher court, at any given times, irrespective of the court.

Answers

Answer:

a) The standard deviation of the annual income σₓ = 2045

b)

The calculated value Z = 0.608 < 1.645 at 10 % level of significance

Null hypothesis is accepted

The average annual income is greater than $32,000

c)

Null hypothesis is accepted

The average annual income is  equal to  $33,000

d)

95% of confidence intervals of the Average annual income

(26 ,746.8 ,34, 763.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given size of the sample 'n' =100

mean of the sample x⁻ =  $30,755

The Standard deviation = $20,450

a)

The standard deviation of the annual income σₓ = [tex]\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

                                               = [tex]\frac{20,450}{\sqrt{100} }= 2045[/tex]

b)

Given mean of the Population μ =  $32,000

Given size of the sample 'n' =100

mean of the sample x⁻ =  $30,755

The Standard deviation ( σ)= $20,450

Null Hypothesis:- H₀: μ > $32,000

Alternative Hypothesis:H₁: μ <  $32,000

Level of significance α = 0.10

[tex]Z = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{30755-32000 }{\frac{20450}{\sqrt{100} } }[/tex]

Z= |-0.608| = 0.608

The calculated value Z = 0.608 < 1.645 at 10 % level of significance

Null hypothesis is accepted

The average annual income is  greater than $32,000

c)

Given mean of the Population μ =  $33,000

Given size of the sample 'n' =100

mean of the sample x⁻ =  $30,755

The Standard deviation ( σ)= $20,450

Null Hypothesis:- H₀: μ =  $33,000

Alternative Hypothesis:H₁: μ ≠ $33,000

Level of significance α = 0.05

[tex]Z = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{30755-33000 }{\frac{20450}{\sqrt{100} } }[/tex]

Z = -1.0977

|Z|= |-1.0977| = 1.0977

The 95% of z -value = 1.96

The calculated value Z = 1.0977 < 1.96 at 5 % level of significance

Null hypothesis is accepted

The average annual income is equal to  $33,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

5a + 2b = 0

a is two less than b

So a = b - 2.

Replacing in the above equation:

[tex]5a + 2b = 0[/tex]

[tex]5(b - 2) + 2b = 0[/tex]

[tex]5b - 10 + 2b = 0[/tex]

[tex]7b = 10[/tex]

[tex]b = \frac{10}{7}[/tex]

An automobile manufacturer is concerned about a fault in the braking mechanism of a particular model. The fault can, on rare occasions, cause a catastrophe at high speed. The distribution of the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe is a random variable with variance = 5.
a) What is the probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe?
b) What is the probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe is 0.2650.

(b) Probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe is 0.9596.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the distribution of the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe is a Poisson random variable with variance = 5.

Let X = the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe

SO, X ~ Poisson([tex]\lambda = 5[/tex])

The probability distribution for Poisson random variable is given by;

               [tex]P(X=x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda} \times \lambda^{x} }{x!} ; \text{ where} \text{ x} = 0,1,2,3,...[/tex]

where, [tex]\lambda[/tex] = Poisson parameter = 5  {because variance of Poisson distribution is [tex]\lambda[/tex] only}

(a) Probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe is given by = P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 3)

    P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 3)  =  P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

                   =  [tex]\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{0} }{0!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{1} }{1!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{2} }{2!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{3} }{3!}[/tex]

                   =  [tex]e^{-5} +(e^{-5} \times 5) +\frac{e^{-5} \times 25 }{2} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 125}{6}[/tex]      

                   =  0.2650

(b) Probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe is given by = P(X > 1)

               P(X > 1)  =  1 - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 1)

                             =  1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

                             =  [tex]1-\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{0} }{0!} -\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{1} }{1!}[/tex]

                             =  1 - 0.00674 - 0.03369

                             =  0.9596

Answers

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle shown is an isosceles triangles. Isosceles triangles have a pair of congruent angles which are found at the bottom. These angles are called the base angles. So, when you find the measurement of one of the base angles, then the other base angle will have the same measurement.

We can find the measurement of x by subtracting 130 from 180. We are doing this because all triangles have a sum measurement of 180°. After we do this, then we will divide that number by 2 to find the measurement of x.

180 - 130 = 50

Now, we divide 50 by 2.

50 ÷ 2 = 25

So, the measurement of x is 25°.

A 45 gram sample of a substance that's used to preserve fruit and vegetables has a k-value of 0.1088

Answers

Answer:

The substance's half-life is 6.4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the half life of a substance is given by the time it takes for the substance to reduce to half of its initial amount. So in this case, where they give you the constant k (0.1088) in the exponential form:

[tex]N=N_0\,e^{-k\,*\,t}[/tex]

we can replace k by its value, and solve for the time "t" needed for the initial amount [tex]N_0[/tex] to reduce to half of its value ([tex]N_0/2[/tex]). Since the unknown resides in the exponent, to solve the equation we need to apply the natural logarithm:

[tex]N=N_0\,e^{-k\,*\,t}\\\frac{N_0}{2} =N_0\,e^{-0.1088\,*\,t}\\\frac{N_0}{2\,*N_0} =e^{-0.1088\,*\,t}\\\frac{1}{2} =e^{-0.1088\,*\,t}\\ln(\frac{1}{2} )=-0.1088\,t\\t=\frac{ln(\frac{1}{2} )}{-0.1088} \\t=6.37\,\,days[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to divide one fraction by another, you must multiply by the reciprocal(the reverse of a certain fraction). the reciprocal of 1/6 is 6/1. so:

[tex]\frac{2}{3} / \frac{1}{6}[/tex] =           multiply by the reciprocal of 1/6

[tex]\frac{2}{3} * \frac{6}{1}[/tex] =         cross out

[tex]\frac{2}{1} * \frac{2}{1}[/tex] =         multiply

[tex]\frac{4}{1}[/tex] =               simplify
