A research group interested in understanding the effect of listening to classical music on learning mathematics conducted a study. One hundred students were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The first group listened to classical music as they learned a new lesson. The second group learned the same lesson with no music playing. Both groups were tested on the new material to determine how much they learned. The results for the two groups were compared. What kind of study is this? (2 points) This is an observational study because students were randomly assigned to groups. This is an observational study because a treatment was applied to both groups. This is an experiment because a treatment was applied to a group. This is an experiment because students were able to choose which group to join. DESCRIPTION SUBMIT

High school seniors with strong academic records apply to the nation’s most selective colleges in greater numbers each year. because the number of slots remains relatively stable, some colleges reject more early applicants. suppose that for a recent admissions class, an ivy league college received 2851 applications for early admission. of this group, it admitted 1033 students early, rejected 854 outright, and deferred 964 to the regular admission pool for further consideration. in the past, this school has admitted 18% of the deferred early admission applicants during the regular admission process. counting the students admitted early and the students admitted during the regular admission process, the total class size was 2375. let e, r, and d represent the events that a student who applies for early admission is admitted early, rejected outright, or deferred to the regular admissions pool. suppose a student applies for early admission. what is the probability that the student will be admitted for early admission or be deferred and later admitted during the regular admission process?
