Researchers want to compare the effectiveness of an extract of St. John's Wort with placebo in outpatients with major depression. They recruited 200 adult outpatients diagnosed as having major depression and having a baseline Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) score of at least 20. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either St. John's Wort extrat, 900 milligrams per day (mg/day) for 4 weeks, increased to 1200 mg/day in the absence of an adequate response thereafter, or a placebo for 8 weeks. The response variable was the change on the HAM-D over the treatment period. After analysis of data, it was concluded that St. John's Wort was not effective for treatment of major depression.

Required:
a. What type of experimental design this is?
b. What is the population that is being studied?
c. What is the response variable in this study?
d. What are the treatments?
e. Identify the experimental units.
f. What is the control group in this study?

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers is between 85.40% and 92.60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the proportion:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 500, \pi = \frac{445}{500} = 0.89[/tex]

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.89 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.89*0.11}{500}} = 0.8540[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.89  + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.89*0.11}{500}} = 0.9260[/tex]

For the percentage:

Multiply the proportion by 100.

0.8540*100 = 85.40%

0.9260*100 = 92.60%

The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers is between 85.40% and 92.60%.

Answer:

44°

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of angles formed from the intersection of two lines opposite to each other at the point of intersection (vertex) is called vertically opposite angles. These vertically opposite angles are congruent to each other (that means they are equal).

Since opposite angles are equal, the equation needed to calculate w is given as:

80° = 36° + w

w = 80° - 36°

w = 44°

You are given the equation [tex]f(x)=x+6[/tex] and [tex]g(x)=x^4[/tex]. When you combine G(F(x))  your equation would come out as [tex]g(f(x))=x^4(x+6)[/tex]. Once you distribute the equation you will get [tex]g(f(x))=(x+6)^4[/tex]

Therefore you answer choice would be B. [tex](x+6)^4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to  compare the VMT of mid western households and southwestern households. For this two independent random samples of households from both areas and their VMT were recorded:

Be

X₁: VMT of a mid western household

Midwest

16.2 , 14.6 , 11.2 , 24.4 , 9.4 12.9 , 18.6 , 16.6 , 20.3 ,15.1 , 17.3 , 10.8 , 16.6 , 20.9 , 18.3

n₁= 15

∑X₁= 243.20

∑X₁²= 4175.98

X[bar]₁= 16.21

S₁²= 16.64

S₁= 4.08

X₂: VMT of a southwestern household

22.2, 19.2 , 9.3 , 24.6 ,20.2 , 15.8, 18.0 , 12.2 , 20.1 , 16.0 , 17.5 , 18.2 , 22.8 , 11.5

n₂= 14

∑X₂= 247.60

∑X₂²= 4633.24

X[bar]₂= 17.69

S₂²= 19.56

S₂= 4.42

The parameters of study are the population means, if the claim is that the VMT of households is different in both areas, then you'd expect the population means to be different too.

The hypotheses are:

H₀: μ₁ = μ₂

H₁: μ₁ ≠ μ₂

α: 0.05

Assuming both populations are normal and since both population variances are equal the test to apply is an independent samples t test pooled variance:

[tex]t= \frac{(X[bar]_1-X[bar]2)-(Mu_1-Mu_2)}{Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } } ~~t_{n_1+n_2-2}[/tex]

[tex]Sa^2= \frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2} = \frac{14*16.67+13*19.56}{15+14-2}= \frac{487.66}{27} = 18.06[/tex]

Sa= 4.249= 4.25

[tex]t_{H_0}= \frac{(16.21-17.69)-0}{4.25*\sqrt{\frac{1}{15} +\frac{1}{14} } }= -0.937= -0.94[/tex]

Critical value approach:

This test is two-tailed, this means that the rejection region is divided in two tails:

[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; \alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.025}= -2.052[/tex]

[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; 1-\alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.975}= 2.052[/tex]

The decision rule is:

If [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≤ -2.052 or if [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≥ 2.052, reject the null hypothesis.

If -2.052 < [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] < 2.052, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The calculated value is within the "no rejection region" so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Using the p-value approach:

The p-value is the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the calculated value of the statistic under the null hypothesis ([tex]t_{H_0}[/tex]). Just as the significance level, the p-value is two tailed, you can calculate it as:

P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + P(t₂₇ ≥ 0.93)= P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + (1 - P(t₂₇ < 0.93)= 0.1796 + ( 1 - 0.8204)= 0.1796*2= 0.3592

p-value= 0.3592

The p-value is always compared to the significance level, the decision rule for this approach is:

If the p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If the p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The p-value is greater than α, so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level, there is no significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis. You can conclude that the population means of the VMT for households of the Midwest  South ers households.

I hope this mhelps!

Answer: The measure of angle B is 31 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

180 -149 = 31

Answer:

31 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that 149 degrees and b are on a line. If they are next to each other they are called adjacent angles. There is a rule that adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees. So we subtract 149 from 180 and we get 31 degrees for angle b.

The difference of the equation is A = ( x² - 3x - 12 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Let the first equation be P = x / ( x² - 2x - 15 )

Let the second equation be Q = 4 / x² + 2x - 35 )

Now , A = P - Q

On simplifying , we get

A = x / ( x² - 2x - 15 ) - 4 / x² + 2x - 35 )

Taking the LCM , we get

A = x ( x + 7 ) - 4 ( x + 3 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )

A = x² + 7x - 4x + 12 / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )

A = ( x² - 3x - 12 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )

Therefore , the value of A is ( x² - 3x - 12 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )

Hence , the equation is A = ( x² - 3x - 12 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )

Answer:

  You can work no more than 10 hours teaching, and must work at least 5 hours cashiering. The remaining hours can be worked at the other job until the goal is reached.

Step-by-step explanation:

The restrictions give rise to two inequalities. If we  ...

  let x represent teaching hours

  let y represent cashiering hours

then the restrictions are ...

  x + y ≤ 15 . . . . total hours cannot exceed 15

  6x +8y ≥ 100 . . . . you want to earn at least $100

The solution set for these inequalities is a triangular area on a graph with vertices at ...

  (x, y) = (10, 5), (0, 12.5), (0, 15)

You must work at least 5 hours cashiering, and the remainder of necessary time at teaching.

The complete question is;

A marine biologist is preparing a deep-sea submersible for a dive. The sub stores breathing air under high pressure in a spherical air tank that measures 78.0 cm wide. The biologist estimates she will need 2600 L of air for the dive. Calculate the pressure to which this volume of air must be compressed in order to fit in to the air tank. Write you answer in atmospheres

Answer:

10.5 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for Volume of a sphere is;

V = (4/3)πr³

r = 78/2 = 39 cm

V = (4/3)π(39)³

V = (4/3)*π*59319

V = 248475 cm³

Now, from conversions, 1000 cm³ = 1L

So,

V = 248475/1000

V = 248.5 L

This is the volume of the storage tank

If we assume that the 2600 L of air is measured at 1 atmosphere pressure, then we will obtain the following relationship:

From Boyles law,

P1 × V1 = P2 × V2

Thus;

(1 atm) × (2600 L) = (P2) × (248.5 L)

P2 = 2600/248.5

P2 = 10.463 atmospheres

Approximating to 3 significant figures is; P2 = 10.5 atm
