Dr. Kang, a cognitive psychologist, conducts an experiment examining the effect of emotion on memory. He provides lists of 15 words to two groups of participants at his university. He puts the names of all the participants in a hat. The first 20 names he assigns to Group A and the last 20 he assigns to Group B. Group A is given a list of words that are very emotional in content (e.g., passion, murder). Group B is given a list of words that are neutral in content (e.g., houseplant, desk). He then measures how many words each group is able to remember after being distracted for 5 minutes by watching a video about the history of the university. He finds that Group A remembers 15% more words than Group B. Use the scenario to answer the following questions (A though C).

A. What is the dependent variable? [1 pt]

Answers

Answer: 24, b

Step-by-step explanation:

So it said "In the Math Club", 67% are not in the literature club. We also know that this 67% is 16 people.

Now we can set up an equation to find the total number of people in the math club. Let's say the total number of people in the Math club is x, so 0.67x = 17, and x = 25.37 rounded. So if 25 people in total, 16 not in the literature club, then that means 25-16 = 9 people are in both the Math club and the Literature club.

So of the students "Not in the Math Club", it said that 78 percent are not in the Literature Club. This means 22 percent are in the literature club. We also know 4 people are in the literature club.

Now we can set up an equation to find the total number of people not in the math club. Let's say the total number of people not in the Math club is x, so 0.22x = 4, x = 18.18 rounded. So if 18 in total, 4 in the literature club, than 14 not in the literature club.

Since x = 9, and y = 14, x+y will equal 23, rounding up to 24 since we rounded down the total number of people.

Parallel Lines

PLEASE HELP I NEED ASAP!

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles do have equal angles and proportional sides, because they are bot right triangles formed on parallel lines.

:)ur welcome

Answer: Choice B

Yes. Right triangles formed on parallel lines have proportional side lengths and congruent angles.

====================================================

Explanation:

Parallel lines always have equal slopes, but different y intercepts.

Recall that slope = rise/run.

The "rise" is the vertical portion of the triangle, while the "run" is the horizontal portion.

So let's say we had a slope of rise/run = 2/3. This means rise = 2 and run = 3.

If we had something like rise/run = 4/6, then that reduces to 2/3, showing that 4/6 = 2/3. They are the same slope.

We can use the SAS similarity theorem to prove the triangles formed in the diagram are congruent based on what is discussed above.

Because the triangles are similar, this means the corresponding angles are congruent. One such pair is the pair of right angles shown.

How would you find out how many sixth through eighth grade students are interested in joining a running club?

Answers

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

How would you find out how many sixth through eighth grade students are interested in joining a running club? Explain how to choose a sample that will give you a good representation of a whole population.

Answer :

the sample should be random

Explanation :

We have to find the number of student from 6th through 8th grade students those who wanted to join a running club by choosing a sample of population. So in order to choose a sample which will provide a good representation for the whole population is that the sample must be a [tex]\text{random sample}[/tex] from  [tex]\text{entire set of students }[/tex] and it should also include enough students to be reliable. The smaller samples have a more variation that lead to a lesser reliable inference.

A line is perpendicular to y=2/3x+2/3 and intersects the point (-2,4). What is the equation of this perpendicular line?

Answers

Answer:

y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{2}{3} }[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Using the point- slope form

with m = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] and (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 4) , then

y - 4 = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] (x - (- 2) ) , that is

y - 4 = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] (x + 2) ← distribute

y - 4 = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 3 ( add 4 to both sides )

y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form

Answers

Answer:

b= (3z-6)/(1+3z)

Step-by-step explanation:

z=(-b+6)/(3b-3)

cross multiple

z(3b-3)=-b+6

open the bracket

3bz-3z=-b+6

make -b the subject of the formula

-b = 3bz-3z-6

-b - 3bz = -3z - 6

factorize the left hand side...

-b(1+3z) = -3z-6

make -b the subject of the formula again

-b = -(3z-6)/(1+3z)

cancel the minus at both sides...

b = (3z-6)/(1+3z)

Answer:

b = [tex]\frac{3z + 6}{3z+1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply solve for "b" , so the formula will be

b = .....

z = [tex]\frac{-b+6}{3b-3}[/tex] ( b > 0 )

z(3b - 3) = - b + 6

3zb - 3z = - b + 6

3zb + b = 3z + 6

b( 3z + 1 ) = 3z + 6

b =  [tex]\frac{3z + 6}{3z+1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Height of a cuboid [tex]h=45\ mm[/tex]

Volume of the cuboid is [tex]V=162\ cm^3[/tex]

End faces are square. So, assume its length to be x

[tex]\therefore x^2\times h=162\\\Rightarrow x^2\times 4.5=162\\\Rightarrow x^2=36\\\Rightarrow x=6\ cm[/tex]

Surface area of cuboid

[tex]\Rightarrow 2(lb+bh+hl)=2(6\times 6+6\times 4.5+4.5\times 6)\\\Rightarrow 2(36+27+27)\\\Rightarrow 180\ cm^2[/tex]

Find the zeros of each quadratic function using any method.
f(x)=(2x+1)(x-3)

Answers

Answer:  x = -1/2    or   x = 3

===================================================

Explanation:

Set each factor equal to zero and solve for x. This is using the zero product property.

(2x+1)(x-3) = 0

2x+1 = 0    or    x-3 = 0

2x = -1     or    x = 3

x = -1/2    or   x = 3

If you graphed the function, you should see that it crosses the x axis at -1/2 and at 3.

In this capacity, her came up with what we now call Locard's Principle of Exchange. The idea is that whenever a person/place/thing comes in contact with another person/place/thing, there is some exchange of trace evidence. He also noted that the intensity and duration of the contact, and nature of the materials determine the extent of the transfer. For example, if you bump into someone on the sidewalk, there will be less exchange than if you spent four hours in their home.Lessons from the JonBenet Ramsey CaseJonBenet RamseyThe 1996 homicide (murder) investigation of six-year-old JonBenet Ramsey provides valuable lessons in proper crime scene investigation procedures. From this case, we learn how important it is to secure a crime scene. Key forensics evidence can be lost forever without a secure crime scene.In the Ramsey case, the police in Boulder, Colorado, allowed extensive contamination of the crime scene. Police first thought JonBenet had been kidnapped because of a ransom note found by her mother. For this reason, the police did not search the house until seven hours after the family called 911. The first-responding officer was investigating the report of the kidnapping. The officer did not think to open the basement door, and so did not discover the murdered body of the girl.Believing the crime was a kidnapping, the police blocked off JonBenet's bedroom with yellow and black crime scene tape to preserve evidence her kidnapper may have left behind. They didn't, however, seal off the rest of the house, which was also part of the crime scene. Then the victim's father, John Ramsey, discovered his daughter's body in the basement of the home. He covered her body with a blanket and carried her to the living room. In doing so, he contaminated the crime scene and may have disturbed evidence. That evidence might have identified the killer.Once the body was found, family, friends, and police officers remained close by. The Ramseys and visitors were allowed to move freely around the house. One friend even helped clean the kitchen, wiping down the counters with a spray cleanerpossibly wiping away evidence. Many hours passed before police blocked off the basement room. A pathologist did not examine the body until more than 19 hours after the crime took place.
