A team of psychologists was curious if omega-3 fatty acid supplements could help treat depression in adolescents. They recruited 50 adolescents with varying levels of depression to participate in an experiment. The researchers randomly assigned each subject to take either an omega-3 supplement or a placebo daily, and they monitored subjects' depression levels throughout the study. What is the main reason for randomly assigning the subjects? A. To identify confounding variables
B. To control against nonresponse
C. To reduce the impact of sampling variability
D. To ensure both the subjects and researchers are blind to who is in which group
E. To create groups that are as similar as possible so the main difference between the groups is the treatment

Determine the solution for mc001-1.jpeg

Drag each expression to the correct location on the solution. not all expressions will be used. consider the polynomial 8x + 2x2 - 20x - 5. factor by grouping to write the polynomial in factored form.

1. an economy consists of three workers: larry, moe, and curly. each works 10 hours a day and can produce two services: mowing lawns and washing cars. in an hour, larry can either mow one lawn or wash one car; moe can either mow one lawn or wash two cars; and curly can either mow two lawns or wash one car. a. calculate how much of each service is produced under the following circumstances: a. all three spend all their time mowing lawns. b. all three spend all their time washing cars. c. all three spend half their time on each activity d. larry spends half of his time on each activity, while moe only washes cars and curly only mows lawns b. using your answers to part a, draw a production possibilities frontier and label points a, b, c, and d on your graph. explain why the production possibilities frontier has the shape it does. c. are any of the allocations calculated in part a inefficient? explain.
