The effect of the time of day a psychology class is taught on test scores is being studied in an experiment. The difficulty of test questions has been identified as an extraneous factor that could also affect test scores. How can the difficulty of test questions best be addressed to minimize its effect in the experiment? A. Direct control by requiring every class to take the same test B. Blocking into groups based on the teacher of the class C. Replication of the experiment at different times of the year D. Randomization of students in morning and afternoon classes P. S if anyone knows prob and stats I need help really bad

Factor k2 - 17k + 16. a.(k - 2)(k - 8) b.(k - 1)(k + 16) c.(k - 1)(k - 16)

Right triangle xyz has a right angle at vertex y and a hypotenuse that measures 24 cm. angle zxy measures 70º. what is the length of line segment xy? round to the nearest tenth. 8.2 cm 8.7 cm 22.6 m 25.5 cm

Amachine that produces a special type of transistor (a component of computers) has a 2% defective rate. the production is considered a random process where each transistor is independent of the others. (a) what is the probability that the 10th transistor produced is the first with a defect? (b) what is the probability that the machine produces no defective transistors in a batch of 100? (c) on average, how many transistors would you expect to be produced before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (d) another machine that also produces transistors has a 5% defective rate where each transistor is produced independent of the others. on average how many transistors would you expect to be produced with this machine before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (e) based on your answers to parts (c) and (d), how does increasing the probability of an event a↵ect the mean and standard deviation of the wait time until success?
