Answer:
Confounding variable
Step-by-step explanation:
Confounding variables also known as lurking or third variable are varibeks which causes an unwanted or spurious association between an independent and dependent variable. This Confounding variable usually has a relationship between not the independent and dependent variable and if not adequately managed or corrected for, they may cause a relationship which is not intended thereby interfering with the outcome of our research. Such is the correlation between ice cream sale and murder rate.
A third-grade class is using plaster of Paris to make impressions of their hands. Each student needs 12 ounces of plaster to make an impression. There are a total of 20 students in the class. How many pounds of plaster will the teacher need for the activity?
Answer:
15 pounds of plaster
Step-by-step explanation:
First, convert ounces to pounds.
In 1 pound, there are 16 ounces. Create a proportion to convert 12 ounces to pounds.
[tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{12}[/tex]
Cross multiply and solve for x:
16x = 12
x = 0.75
So, each student will need 0.75 pounds of plaster. Multiply this by 20 to find the total amount the teacher will need:
20(0.75)
= 15
So, the teacher will need 15 pounds of plaster
Answer:
15 pounds

A prescription requires 10 mg of tablet. A nurse read the incorrect unit of measurement and gave a patient .1 g of the tablet. Is the patient at risk and she should inform the doctor immediately?
A nurse read the incorrect unit of measurement and gave a patient 100 mg of the tablet.
The patient at risk and she should inform the doctor immediately.
What is a unitary method?Unitary method is a method where we find the value of a single unit from the value of multiple units and the value of multiple units from the value of a single unit.
Given
Prescription requires 10 mg of tablet.
A nurse read the incorrect unit of measurement and gave a patient .1 g of the tablet.
We know
1 g = 1000 mg
0.1 g = [tex]x[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x[/tex] × 1 = 0.1 × 1000
⇒ [tex]x[/tex] = 100 mg
10 mg < 100 mg
By using unitary method we can say that
A nurse read the incorrect unit of measurement and gave a patient 100 mg of the tablet.
The patient at risk and she should inform the doctor immediately.

how do you find volume of sphere, cylinder, cone ? ... explaining please
Answer:
hmmmm
Step-by-step explanation:
Cone
The volume of a cone is linked to the volume of a cylinder. A cone is one third of the volume of a cylinder. The volume of a cone is ¹/₃ × π × r² × l. To calculate the volume we multiply these values together. The answer will be written in units³.
Sphere
The volume of a sphere is ⁴/₃ × π × r³. To calculate the volume we multiply these values together. The answer will be written in units³.
Cylinder
The volume of a cylinder is π × r² × l (r is the radius of the circle and l is the length of the cylinder). To calculate the volume we multiply these values together. The answer will be written in units³. It is more accurate to use π = 3.142 or the π button on a calculator.
A cone is a 3D shape with 2 faces and one edge
A sphere is a 3D shape. It has one continuous face and no edges
A cylinder is a type of prism. It has 3 faces and 2 edges

Answer:
85º and 95º
Step-by-step explanation:
supplementary angle total 180
(8x – 3) + (7x + 18) = 180
Combine like terms
15x + 15 = 180
15x = 165

b. 69.85% of the area under the distribution curve lies to the left of it.
c. 88.10% of the area under the distribution curve lies to the left of it.
Answer:
a) z = 0.12
b) z = 0.52
c) z = 1.18
Step-by-step explanation:
The z values is the area under the curve lying to its left
a) Hence, P (Z<z) = 0.5478
Taking the value of z from the standard normal table, we get -
z = 0.12
b) P (Z<z) = 0.6985
Taking the value of z from the standard normal table, we get -
z = 0.52
c) P (Z<z) = 0.8810
Taking the value of z from the standard normal table, we get -
z = 1.18

Use the given data to find the minimum sample size required to estimate the population proportion.
a. Margin of error: 0.004: confidence level: 95% p and q unknown
b. Margin of error: 0.009, confidence level: 99%; p and q unknown
c. Margin of error: 0.01; confidence level: 95%; from a prior study, p is estimated by the decimal equivalent of 52%.
Answer:
a. The minimum sample size required is of 60,025.
b. The minimum sample size required is of 20,465.
c. The minimum sample size required is 9,589.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
The margin of error is of:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
Question a:
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
p and q unknown means that we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex], which is when the largest sample size is needed.
Margin of error: 0.004
We have to find n for which M = 0.004. So
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.004 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.004\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.004}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.004})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 60025[/tex]
The minimum sample size required is of 60,025.
b. Margin of error: 0.009, confidence level: 99%; p and q unknown
99% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].
Margin of error: 0.009
We have to find n for which M = 0.009. So
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.009 = 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.009\sqrt{n} = 2.575*0.5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.575*0.5}{0.009}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.575*0.5}{0.009})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 20464.9[/tex]
Rounding up:
The minimum sample size required is of 20,465.
c. Margin of error: 0.01; confidence level: 95%; from a prior study, p is estimated by the decimal equivalent of 52%.
Here we have [tex]\pi = 0.52[/tex].
The minimum sample size is n for which M = 0.01. So
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.01 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.52*0.48}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.01\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.52*0.48}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.52*0.48}}{0.01}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.52*0.48}}{0.01})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 9588.6[/tex]
Rounding up:
The minimum sample size required is 9,589.
What two numbers add to 7 and multiply to -44
Answer:
The numbers are 11 and -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let the two numbers be [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex]
such that:
[tex]x + y = 7[/tex]
[tex]x*y = -44[/tex]
Required
Find x and y
Make y the subject in: [tex]x + y = 7[/tex]
[tex]y = 7 - x[/tex]
Substitute [tex]y = 7 - x[/tex] in [tex]x*y = -44[/tex]
[tex]x(7-x) = -44[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]-x^2 +7x = -44[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]x^2 -7x -44=0[/tex]
Expand
[tex]x^2 +4x-11x -44=0[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]x(x +4)-11(x +4)=0[/tex]
Factor out x + 4
[tex](x -11)(x +4)=0[/tex]
Solve for x
[tex]x =11; x =-4[/tex]
Recall that:
[tex]y = 7 - x[/tex]
So:
[tex]y = 7-11 = -4[/tex]
or
[tex]y = 7--4 = 11[/tex]

Explanation:
f(x) is the outer function, so the final output -8 corresponds to f(x)
We see that f(-4) = -8 in the first column of the table. I'm starting with the output and working my way backward to get the input. So we started with -8 and worked back to -4.
Then we move to the g(x) function to follow the same pattern: start with the output and move to the input. We start at -4 in the g(x) bubble and move to 3 in the x bubble.
In short, g(3) = -4
So,
f(g(x)) = f(g(3)) = f(-4) = -8
We see that x = 3 leads to f(g(x)) = -8

In the accompanying diagram, triangle ABC is similar to triangle RST, BC= 12, AC=15, and ST= 8. Find RT.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC is similar to RST,
so BC is corresponding to ST, and AC is corresponding to RT
BC=12 and ST=8
so the scale factor from RST to ABC is 1.5 and the scale factor from ABC to RST is 2/3 because 12*(2/3) is 8, and 8*1.5 is 12.
now apply this to AC to find RT
AC=15
15*(2/3)=10
10*1.5=15
RT =10
Suppose we want to write 2/3 as an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 15. What number must we multiply both the numerator and the denominator by?
