3. Suppose that you are asked to conduct a study to determine whether smaller class sizes lead to improved student performance of fourth graders. If you could conduct any experiment you want, what would you do? Be specific. More realistically, suppose you can collect observational data on several thousand fourth graders in a given state. You can obtain the size of their fourth-grade class and a standardized test score taken at the end of fourth grade. Why might you expect...

ANSWER ALL OF THEM IT IS ONE QUESTION PLEASE. 9.2.20 In a study of the effect of wing length on the flight time of paper helicopters, two wing lengths were of interest: 2 cm and 3 cm. Two paper helicopters were made, one with a wing length of 2 cm and the other with 3 cm. All other aspects of the helicopters were made to be as identical as possible. Each helicopter was repeatedly dropped from a height of 10...

Part I-Additional Resources Allowed A study conducted in 2014 looked into the impact of violent video games on aggressive behavior. Researchers randomly assigned 101 volunteers from a UK University to either play LittleBigPlanet 2, a neutral video game, or Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, a violent video game. All participants played the game assigned to them for 30 minutes. Afterwards, researchers asked the participant to prepare an amount of chili sauce for a taste tester Participants were told the taste...

Please asnwer c (iii) and d only. Thank you in advance.
5.16. In an experiment to study the effect of temperature (x) on the yield of a chemical reaction (y), 30 experimental runs were conducted. The level of temperature was carefully controlled at each of five levels, coded as x = -2, -1, 0, 1, 2. Two catalysts were used. For each catalyst three runs were taken at each level of temperature, and the yield was measured. The model y=Bo+Bix...
