Answer:

(C) Whether or not a subject attends preschool

Step-by-step explanation:

In research studies, variables are used to explain differences in another variable. The explanatory variable (also known as independent or predictor variable) is used to explain differences in the response variable (dependent or outcome variable).

<em>It is important to know that the explanatory variable is the variable that is manipulated by the researcher. </em>

The facts that are not being manipulated are the income of the children studied, and what happens after attending or not preschool program. The variable the researcher is manipulating is the assignation to groups that will or will not attend preschool. Therefore the correct answer is:

(C) Whether or not a subject attends preschool

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

It translates to 78n \ge 312 which solves to n \ge 4 after dividing both sides by 78. This means n is equal to 4 or it can be larger than 4.

Sam gave jen 1/2 of his jujubes .jen ate 1/2 ofthe jujubes and gave rest to kyle.kyle kept 8 of the jujubes and gave the last 10
erastovalidia [21]
Let x = the # jujubes Sam had
he gave x/2 to jen
jen eats half of it  =    1/2(x/2) =    x/4
the remaining  x/4 he gave to kyle
kyle kept 8 and gave 10 to Kim
so
             x/4 - 8 = 10
             x/4 = 18
             x =72
thus    jen had 36 jujubes
jen eat    18  jujubes

Which graph is the result of reflecting f(x) = One-fourth(8)x across the y-axis and then across the x-axis? On a coordinate plan
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Which graph is the result of reflecting f(x) = One-fourth(8)x across the y-axis and then across the x-axis?

On a coordinate plane, an exponential function approaches y = 0 in quadrant 2 and incresaes into quadrant 1. It goes through the y-axis at (0, 0.25) and goes through (1, 2).

On a coordinate plane, an exponential function approaches y = 0 in quadrant 1 and increases in quadrant 2. It crosses the y-axis at (0, 0.25) and goes through (negative 1, 2).

On a coordinate plane, an exponential function approaches y = 0 in quadrant 3 and decreases into quadrant 4. It crosses the y-axis at (0, negative 0.25) and goes through (1, negative 2).

On a coordinate plane, an exponential funtion increases in quadrant 3 into quadrant 4 and approaches y = 0. It goes through (negative 1, negative 2) and crosses the y-axis at (0, negative 0.25).
