A program that was intended to cure a person’s fear of spiders was offered at a local zoo. Volunteers with a fear of spiders par

ticipated in the program, which included holding a spider for 15 minutes. One month after they completed the program, the participants were contacted and surveyed about the program. Over 90 percent of the participants claimed they were cured of their fear of spiders. Based on the description of the program, which of the following statements is true?
(A) Because over 90% of the participants claimed to be cured, the results prove that holding a spider will cure a person's fear of spiders
(B) Because over 90% of the participants claimed to be cured, the results can be generalized to the population of all people who have a fear of spiders.
(C)Because the participants were volunteers, the study is a census of all people in the local area who have a fear of spiders. confounding variable and the results can be generalized to the population of all people who have a a fear of spider
(D)Because the participants were self-selected, a person's desire to be cured could be a confounding variable.
(E) Because participants held a spider for 15 minutes, the study is an experiment fear of spiders.

Answer:

Option E

Step-by-step explanation:

The volunteers held spider for 15 minutes

90% of participants confessed that they were cured from the fear of spider

The available statement describes the 90% of the participants claimed they were cured of their fear of spiders. The statement also states that the participants held spider for 15 minutes only. These two parameters are only combined in one answer, option E which captures both. Therefore, we can rightfully conclude that the results can be generalized to the population of all people who have a fear of spiders.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

51,200 divided by 52. (52 weeks in a year.) 984.615385 is answer. So each week he gets paid $984.62. So then we multiply that by 3 since we are finding 40% of 3 weeks of pay. $984.62x3= $2953.86. Then we multiply that by 40%.. $2953.86x40%= Answer is $11181.54

The following are the hypotheses for a test of the claim that college graduation statue and cola preference are independent. H0:
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

\chi^2 = 0.579

And the critical value for the significance level used is:

\chi^2_{crit}= 5.991

Since the calculated value is less than the critical value we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the College graduation status and cola preference are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we want to test the following hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: College graduation status and cola preference are independent

Alternative hypothesis: College graduation status and cola preference are dependent

For this case we got a calculated statistic of:

\chi^2 = 0.579

And the critical value for the significance level used is:

\chi^2_{crit}= 5.991

Since the calculated value is less than the critical value we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the College graduation status and cola preference are independent

Figure ABCD is transformed to obtain figure A'B'C'D': A coordinate grid is shown from negative 6 to 6 on both axes at increments
nika2105 [10]

Given:

Vertices of ABCD are A(-4,4), (-2,2), C(-2,-1) and D(-4,1).

Vertices of A'B'C'D' are A'(3,-4), B'(5,-2), C'(5,1) and D'(3,-1).

To find:

The sequence of transformations that changes figure ABCD to figure A'B'C'D'.

Solution:

Part A:

The figure ABCD reflected across the x-axis, then

(x,y)\to (x,-y)

Using this rule, we get

A(-4,4)\to A_1(-4,-4)

Similarly, the other points are B_1(-2,-2),C_1(-2,1),D_1(-4,-1).

Then figure translated 7 units right to get A'B'C'D'.

(x,y)\to (x+7,y)

A_1(-4,-4)\to A'(-4+7,-4)=A'(3,-4)

Similarly, the other points are B'(5,-2), C'(5,1),D'(3,-1).

Therefore, the figure ABCD reflected across the x-axis and then translated 7 units right to get A'B'C'D'.

Part B:

Reflection and translation are rigid transformation, it means shape and size of figures remains same after reflection and translation.

Therefore, the two figures congruent.
