A researcher in environmental science is conducting a study to investigate the impact of a particular herbicide on fish. He has

60 healthy fish and randomly assigns each fish to either a treatment or a control group. The fish in the treatment group showed higher levels of the indicator enzyme. Suppose a test of significance was correctly conducted and showed no statistically significant difference in average enzyme level between the fish that were exposed to the herbicide and those that were not.
a. What conclusion can the graduate student draw from these results?

Answer:

The herbicide has no impact on fish

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental research includes to divide the concerned group 'fishes' here into 'treatment' & 'control' group, to study impact of a treatment. Hypothesis test the statistical significance of  propositions. Null hypothesis signifies no impact, alternate hypothesis signifies impact.

Let averages enzyme level of treatment & control be Xt & Xc

  • Null Hypothesis [H0] : Xt = Xc, or Xt - Xc = 0
  • Alternate Hypothesis [H1] : Xt ≠ Xc, or Xt - Xc ≠ 0

If hypothesis test suggests that there is no significant difference between treatment & control group enzyme level, so we reject H0 & accept H1. It implies that the herbicide has no significant impact on fishes enzymes.

Marta_Voda [28]

Let X equal the remaining time she needs to practice.

You would have 2x

The combined total needs to be 6 hours or greater.

You need to add the amount she already practiced to 2x.

Now you have: three and one fourth + 2x

This needs to be greater than or equal to 6.

Answer: three and one fourth + 2x ≥ 6

Which story represents the equation six sevenths times one fourth?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:  (C) Victoria has six sevenths of a pizza. She ate one fourth of it for dinner. How much pizza did Victoria eat for dinner?

Step-by-step explanation: One clue is "of" in the story and which matches "times" in the equation sentence. The question is is about multiplication.

Words such as "more" "and" & "total" are usually clues that the question is about addition. "Give" "take" "difference" & "have/are left" are clues that there is subtraction in the process.
