Alarge university wanted to study the relationship between completing an internship during college and students' future earning potential. prom the same graduating class, they selected a random sample of 80 students who completed an internship and 100 students who did not complete an internship and examined their salaries five years after graduation. they found that there was a statistically higher mean salary for the internship group than for the noninternship group. which of the following interpretations is the most appropriate? a. there could be a confounding variable, such as student major, that explains the difference in mean salary between the internship and no internship groups.b. we cannot infer anything from these data since the distribution of salaries is likely right skewed.c. you cannot draw any valid conclusions because the sample sizes are different.d. more students should complete internships because having an internship produces a higher salary.

Suppose the government decides to issue a new savings bond that is guaranteed to double in value if you hold it for 20 years. assume you purchase a bond that costs $25. a. what is the exact rate of return you would earn if you held the bond for 20 years until it doubled in value? (do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. if you purchased the bond for $25 in 2017 at the then current interest rate of .27 percent year, how much would the bond be worth in 2027? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. in 2027, instead of cashing in the bond for its then current value, you decide to hold the bond until it doubles in face value in 2037. what annual rate of return will you earn over the last 10 years? (do not
