A key factor preventing foster families from adopting their foster children is ?

1 answer:

6 0

The key factors are:
- loss of federal monetary support if the foster child is adopted. (which makes a family unable to adopt a children unless they belong to upper economic bracket)
- private insurance companies are reluctant to cover preexisting conditions.
<span>- loss of federal support for medical expenses if the foster child is adopted. (combined with the relucatncy of the insurance companies, this often makes a family feel that taking a children from the foster will carry much greater risk compared to the reward that they would obtain)</span>

The correct answer is an experimental study with one independent variable.

This study is an experimental study because it involves investigating a causal relationship between two phenomena. In this study the researcher is investigating the relationship and checking for causality between the size of a group, and its effect on conformity behavior. This study furthermore has an independent variable (i.e. a variable that is manipulated and controlled) which is the size of the group of people staring up at a window.

Explanation:

Sleep rebound: The term sleep rebound is also referred to as REM rebound and is defined as an increasing and lengthening depth and frequency of an individual's eye movement i.e, REM sleep that tends to occur or happen after a long period of an individual dealing with sleep deprivation. If an individual is being prevented from encountering REM sleep then there is a chance of taking less time to acquire REM state than usual.

In the question above, Hamid may be experiencing sleep rebound.

Answer:

$z=1.28$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=58 +1.28*5=64.4$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 64.4.

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the velocity of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(58,5)$

Where $\mu=58$ and $\sigma=5$

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

$P(X>a)=0.10$ (a)

$P(X$ (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.90 of the area on the left and 0.1 of the area on the right it's z=1.28. On this case P(Z<1.28)=0.9 and P(z>1.28)=0.1

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

$P(X$

$P(z$

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

$z=1.28$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=58 +1.28*5=64.4$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 64.4.
