Does the type of program people watch influence how much they eat? A total of 94 college students were randomly assigned to one

of three treatments: watching 20 minutes of a Hollywood action movie (The Island), watching the same 20-minute excerpt of the movie with no sound, and watching 20 minutes of an interview program. While watching, participants were given snacks (M&M’S®, cookies, carrots, and grapes) and allowed to eat as much as they wanted. Subjects who watched the highly stimulating excerpt from The Island ate 65% more calories than subjects who watched the interview show. Participants who watched the silent version of The Island ate 46% more calories than those who watched the interview show.36 Identify the explanatory and response variables in this study. Then determine if it is an experiment or an observational study. Explain your reasoning.

Find the area of the shape shown below.
Liula [17]

Answer:

31.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add the areas together

We have a rectangle and a triangle

The area of the rectangle is

A = lw

   = 7*3

   = 21

The area of the triangle is

A = 1/2 bh

   = 1/2 (7)*3

   = 21/2

   = 10.5

Add them together

A = 21 + 10.5

   =31.5

Which statement identifies how to show that j(x) = 11.6ex and k(x) = In (StartFraction x Over 11.6 EndFraction) are inverse func
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

<h2>It must be shown that both j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6}, to show that both equality functions are true, all we need to show is that both  j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x,

For j(k(x));

j(k(x)) = j[(ln x/11.6)]

j[(ln (x/11.6)] = 11.6e^{ln (x/11.6)}

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6(x/11.6) (exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm)

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6 * x/11.6

j[(ln x/11.6)] = x

Hence j[k(x)] = x

Similarly for k[j(x)];

k[j(x)] = k[11.6e^x]

k[11.6e^x] = ln (11.6e^x/11.6)

k[11.6e^x]  = ln(e^x)

exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm leaving x

k[11.6e^x]  = x

Hence k[j(x)] = x

From the calculations above, it can be seen that j[k(x)] =  k[j(x)]  = x, this shows that the functions j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6} are inverse functions.

How many terms are in the algebraic expression Negative 7 + 12 x 4 minus 5 y 8 + x?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Therefore,

There are Four i.e 4 terms in the expression,

-7+12x^{4}-5y^{8}+x

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebraic Expression:

An algebraic expression is a mathematical expression that consists of variables, numbers and operations.

  • Variables with the coefficient is called as Term.
  • Number is also a term.

Here the Expression is

-7+12x^{4}-5y^{8}+x

So,

-7 = One\ Term\\12x^{4}=Second\ Term\\-5y^{8}=Third\ Term\\x=Fourth\ Term

In all there are Four i.e 4 terms in the given expressions.

Therefore,

There are Four i.e 4 terms in the expression,

-7+12x^{4}-5y^{8}+x

. Donny had a 10-foot board. He used the board to make two shelves. One shelf measured 4 feet 7 inches wide and the other shelf
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The length of the missing piece is 2 ft 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the length of the remaining piece of the board given that we have the total length of the board and two other pieces.

Mathematically, the remaining piece length can be calculated by subtracting the lengths of the known pieces

That would be;

10 ft - 4 ft 7 inches - 3 ft 2 inches

In a foot there are 12 inches

Thus

10 ft = 10 * 12 = 120 inches

4 ft 7 inches = 4(12) + 7 = 55 inches

3 ft 2 inches = 3(12) + 2 = 36 + 2 = 38 inches

Thus the length of the remaining piece would now be;

120 -55 -38 = 27 inches

That is same as 24 + 3 inches

24 inches = 2 ft

So 27 inches = 2 ft 3 inches

Lin counts 5 bacteria under a microscope. She counts them again each day for four days, and finds
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Yes, but it is not linear. It is exponential :  f(x) = 5\cdot 2^{x-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first day we have 5 bacteria.

On the second day we will have 5*2 = 10 bacteria.

On the third day we will have 10*2 = 5*2*2 = 5*2^2 = 20 bacteria.

On the fourth day we will have 20*2 = 5*2*2*2 = 5*2^3 = 40 bacteria.

We can see that

                                                f(x) = 5\cdot 2^{x-1},

where x is a number of days and f(x) gives us the number of bacteria.
