A researcher wants to conduct a study to see if cell phones cause headaches. The researcher finds 30 individuals who use cell phones regularly and 30 that do not. Each of the 60 individuals are given a questionnaire designed to determine headache frequency. If the 60 individuals did not know they were participating in the study, which statement about the study is correct? a. It is an experiment where cell phone habits is a blocking variable.
b. It is an observational study.
c. It is a matched-pairs design.
d. It is a randomized experiment.
e. It is a double-blind study.

E. It is a double-blind study.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a double blind study since the 60 individuals who partake in the study did not know they were participating in the study,

A double-blind study is a kind of study whereby the participants involved do not know that they are participating in a study and also don't know who'll end up getting a certain treatment. The aim of this is so that bias can be prevented in the study.

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)

see below

step-by-step explanation:

7.   there are 10 data points in the set.   the middle point is between 5 and 6.   the middle point in the top half is 8   and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term   point 8 = 100   point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final   point 8 = 93   point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6.   b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical .   there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5.   the   iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games.   since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.  

3.   the exam median is much higher than the class median.   the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2.   there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.
