Answer:

3 treatment conditions were compared in the study.

14 individuals participated in the study.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Part (A) How many treatment conditions were compared in the study?

There are two sets of degrees of freedom; one for the numerator and one for the denominator.

F ratio is defined as: $df=(df_{\text{Between treatment}}, df_{error})$

The formula for between treatment is: $df_{\text{Between treatment}}=k-1$

Substitute $df_{\text{Between treatment}}=2$ in above formula.

$2=k-1$

$k=3$

Therefore, 3 treatment conditions were compared in the study.

Part (B) How many individuals participated in the study?

The error degree of freedom is $df_{error}=(k-1)(n-1)$

Substitute $df_{error}=26$ and k=3 in above formula.

$26=(3-1)(n-1)$

$26=2(n-1)$

$14=n$

Hence, 14 individuals participated in the study.

Find the general solution for cos x = 0, where n is an integer.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

First we solve this equation:
x = cos^-1(0) = pi/2 and 3pi/2

Now, this is the answer for angles between 0 and 2pi

but there are "negative angles" and angles larger than 2pi
so the general solution that includes all of these cases is:

x = pi/2 + n*pi

here n is any integer.

Jason would like to estimate the probability of heads coming up more than once in 3 coin flips. To do this, he has a computer ra

Umnica [9.8K]

The total number of tries = 10

The tries are { <span>110 111 100 000 101 111 100 000 011 010 }
</span><span />
Where: 0 representing heads and 1 representing tails

The tries which are heads came up more than once in 3 coin flips { 100 000 100 000 010 }

The number of the tries which are heads came up more than once in 3 coin flips = 5

∴ The probability of heads coming up more than once in 3 coin flips = 5/10 = 1/2

What is the distance points for (2,-2) and (0,-9)

Ksivusya [100]

The distance between two points (2,-2) and (0,-9) is 7.3 units, which is obtained by graphical method and formula method.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

Two points are (2,-2) and (0,-9)

Step:1

By graphical method,

For two points (2,-2) and (0,-9)

First point (2,-2)

The values of x=2 and y=-9 noted in the graph

Second point (0,-9)

The values of x=0 and y=-9 noted in the graph

Now join the two points, measure the distance between the two points,

Distance between points are 7.3 units.

( OR )

Step:1

By formula method,

Distance = $\sqrt{(x_{2}- x_{2}) ^{2}+ (y_{2}-y_{1}) ^{2} }$

Where,

( 2,-2) are ( $x_{1},y_{1}$ )

(0,-9) are ( $x_{2},y_{2}$ )

From the values,

= $\sqrt{(0- 2) ^{2}+ (-9+2) ^{2} }$

= $\sqrt{(- 2) ^{2}+ (-7) ^{2} }$

= $\sqrt{4+49 }$

= $\sqrt{53}$

= 7.280

≅ 7.3

Distance = 7.3

Result:

The distance between two points (2,-2) and (0,-9) is 7.3 units, which is obtained by graphical method and formula method.

Jessica is organizing a guided tour of the rain forest. The average profit per person that the touring company makes is given by

Allushta [10]

As a practical equation, this one doesn't make much sense -- why would the profit per person have a term proportional to the number of people? Let's just go with it.

$18x + \dfrac{35}{x}$

$= \dfrac{18x^2}{x} + \dfrac{35}{x}$

$= \dfrac{18x^2 + 35}{x}$

That's the answer to the first part.

35/x represents a portion of the profit that's 35/x per person, or a constant $35 per tour.
