Answer:
a) This is an Observational Study because in this kind of study investigators observe subjects and measure variables of interest without assigning treatments to the subjects. Here, the Gilham et al. (2005) studied two different groups where no treatment or intervention was done. These groups were independent of each other.
b) proportions of children with significant social activity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia = 1020/1272 = 0.80
proportions of children with significant social activity in children without acute lymphoblastic leukemia = 5343/6238 = 0.86
c) Odds ratio can be calculated using the following formula:
OR= \frac{a/b}{c/d}
where: a - Number in exposed group with positive outcome(here this means number of children with significant social activity associated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia)
b- Number of children without social activity having with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
c- Number of children with social activity having without acute lymphoblastic leukemia
d- Number of children without social activity having without acute lymphoblastic leukemia
OR= \frac{1020/252}{5343/895}
OR= 0.6780
d) The 95% confidence interval of this Odds Ratio is 0.5807 to 0.7917.
e) Since the odds ratio lies in this confidence interval indicate that the amount of social activity is associated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The children with more social activity have a higher occurrence of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
I don't know, what did the policeman shout to the math professor as a mob of excited calculus students crowded around these displays on his graphing calculator?
multiply the price by the discount then subtract the answer from the price
4 * 0.20 = 0.80
4-0.80 = 3.20
sale price is $3.20
B. The total area painted is 864; they must buy two cans of paint.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
A rectangle's area can be calculated by multiplying its length and its width. The wall is made up of 5 different types of rectangular walls. All walls are 8 feet tall but the length varies.
Step 2:
The area of the 20 feet long wall = 
The area of the 10 feet long wall = 
The area of the 5 feet long wall = 
The area of the 4 feet long wall = 
The area of the 15 feet long wall = 
The area of all the walls = 432 square feet.
Since there are two sides for every wall, total area = 
square feet.
Step 3:
If one paint can covers 500 square feet,
the number of cans required to paint 864 square feet = 
cans.
so 2 paint cans are needed to paint 864 square feet which is option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since f(0) = f(5) = f(8) = 0, we have f(x) = Ax(x - 5)(x - 8), where A is a real constant.
We know that f(10) = 17.
=> A(10)(10 - 5)(10 - 8) = 17
=> A(10)(5)(2) = 17
=> 100A = 17, A = 0.17.
Hence the answer is f(x) = 0.17x(x - 5)(x - 8).
