Researchers are investigating whether people who exercise with a training partner have a greater increase, on average, in target

ed exercise intensity compared with people who exercise alone. Two methods of collecting data have been proposed.
ᄋ Method I: Recruit volunteers who are willing to participate. Randomly assign each participant to exercise with a training partner or to exercise alone.

ᄋ Method II: Select a random sample of people from all the people who exercise at a community fitness center. Ask each person in the sample whether they use a training partner, and use the response to create the two groups.

(a) For each method, the researchers will record the change in targeted exercise intensity for each person in the investigation. They will compare the mean change in intensity between those who exercise with a training partner and those who do not.


(i) Describe the population of generalization if method I is used.

(ii) Describe the population of generalization if method II is used.

(b) Suppose the investigation produces a result that is statistically significant using both methods. What can be concluded if method I is used that cannot be concluded if method II is used?

Answer:

We need to analyze the influences of both method I and method II.

(a)

(i) The generalization population for method I includes everyone who is interested in evaluating the effects of working out with a partner compared to working out alone.

(ii) In the case of method II, the generalization population consists of all individuals exercising at a community fitness center.

(b)

Should both methods yield significant findings, the key distinction between the conclusions drawn from method I and method II is that method I's results can be applied to a wider audience since it doesn't limit participant criteria.

The sharks are fed three times a day. During the morning feeding , 2/15 tons of fish is fed. During the afternoon feeding, the w
zzz [12042]

Answer:

1/6 ton of fish is provided during the night feeding.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fish consumed in the morning is \dfrac{2}{15} tons, and the amount of fish served in the afternoon is \dfrac{1}{15} greater than in the morning. This means

\dfrac{2}{15} +\dfrac{1}{15}

Let’s represent the quantity of fish given at night as x, and if the total fish fed throughout the day equals \dfrac{1}{2}, we have

\dfrac{2}{15}+(\dfrac{2}{15} +\dfrac{1}{15})+x=\dfrac{1}{2}

By summing the numerators on the left side, we derive:

\dfrac{5}{15} +x=\dfrac{1}{2}

and subtracting \dfrac{5}{15} from both sides allows us to isolate x:

x=\dfrac{1}{2} -\dfrac{5}{15}

Since \dfrac{5}{15} =\dfrac{1}{3}, we derive

x=\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{3}

The common denominator for the fractions is 6; hence, we write the equation in the form

x=\dfrac{3}{6}-\dfrac{2}{6}

and simplifying the numerators results in:

\boxed{x=\dfrac{1}{6} }

which indicates the amount of tons fed during the night feeding.

A school fundraiser sells 1,200 raffle tickets. Each ticket costs $2. There is one grand prize worth $100 and 5 smaller prizes w
Svet_ta [12483]
The expected loss is $1.83. Step-by-step explanation: The average value for each ticket is calculated as... ($100 + 5($20)) / 1200 = $200 / 1200 ≈ $0.1667 ≈ $0.17. Since purchasing a ticket costs $2.00, your anticipated value becomes... -$2.00 + 0.17 = -$1.83, leading to a loss of $1.83.

If 6 components are drawn at random from the container, the probability that at least 4 are not defective is . If 8 components a
Svet_ta [12483]
The question is missing some information. It should be phrased as follows:

<span><span>A container has 50 electronic components, with 10 identified as defective. If 6 components are randomly selected from the container, what is the probability that at least 4 of them are not defective? Additionally, if 8 components are drawn at random from the container, what is the probability that exactly 3 are defective?

</span>Answers
<span>Part 1.  0.02
Part 2. </span></span>0.0375<span><span>

</span>Explanation
Probability denotes the likelihood of an event occurring. It is computed as:
probability = (Number of favorable outcomes)/(Number of total outcomes)

Part 1
When 6 components are chosen, if 4 are confirmed functioning, then 2 must be defective.
P(at least 4 functional) = 4/40</span>× 2/10
                                            = 1/10 × 1/5
                                            = 1/50
                                            = 0.02

Part 2
Choosing 8 components, if 3 are defective, then 5 are functioning.
P(3 defective) = 3/40 × 5/10
                             = 15/400
                             = 3/80
                            = 0.0375
