Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
let's use g for golf and b for batting cages
So let's start with Sylvester
he plays 5 rounds of mini golf so 5g
and he takes 4 turns in the batting cages so 4b
and he pays 60 dollars for this
SO his equation is 5g+4b=60
Now onto Lin
3g for 3 rounds of golf
6b for 6 turns in the batting cages
He pays 45 dollars
SO his equation is 3g+6b=45
Both equations:
5g+4b=60
3g+6b=45
Now you need to cancel out one variable so you can multiply the first equation by 3 and the second one by -5
15g+12b=120
-15g-30b=-225
Now the g will cancel out when you add both equations
-18b=-105
b=105/18 which is about 5.83 dollars
Now plug in 105/18 into any of the original equations and solve for g
68 is the correct answer. Thank you for your help! Love doing this!
Complete question:
Dr. Lyte wishes to study speed of Reaction Time to press a button in response to the onset of a lamp. The independent variable (V) is the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue) Since only 10 participants are available, she elects to administer the IV within-subjects with all 10 participants being exposed to all five levels of the color variable. The order of the color of the light presentation is to be counterbalanced. Using concepts from the textbook, why would Dr. Lyte need to use counterbalancing in this scenario?
Answer:
Here,
Independent variable (IV) is: the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue)
We are also told only 10 participants are available.
All 10 participants are being exposed to all five levels of the color variable in the same order.
Counterbalancing is said to be a technique used when establishing task order. It helps prevent introduction if cofounding variables.
Dr. Lyte will need to use counterbalancing technique in this scenario because some of the participants may be unable to understand difference in similar colours. Example some participants may not be able to differentiate between orange and red when the red colour comes after orange.
But using counterbalancing technique, Dr. Lyte can avoid such an error.
