1. in the experiment of the preceding exercise, the subjects were randomly assigned to the different treatments. men with high blood pressure are assigned at random to one of four diets:
(1) normal diet with unrestricted salt;
(2) vegetarian with unrestricted salt;
(3) normal with restricted salt; and
(4) vegetarian with restricted salt.
2. what is the most important reason for this random assignment?
a. random assignment reduces the amount of variation in blood pressure.
b. random assignment is a good way to create groups of subjects that are roughly equivalent at the beginning of the experiment.
c. random assignment makes it possible to make a conclusion about all men.
d. random assignment eliminates the effects of other variables such as stress and body weight.
e. random assignment prevents the placebo effect from ruining the results of the study.

Eagle sporting goods reported the following data at july ​31, 2016​, with amounts adapted in​ thousands: ​(click the icon to view the income​ statement.) ​(click the icon to view the statement of retained​ earnings.) ​(click the icon to view the balance​ sheet.) 1. compute eagle​'s net working capital. 2. compute eagle​'s current ratio. round to two decimal places. 3. compute eagle​'s debt ratio. round to two decimal places. do these values and ratios look​ strong, weak or​ middle-of-the-road? 1. compute eagle​'s net working capital. total current assets - total current liabilities = net working capital 99400 - 30000 = 69400 2. compute eagle​'s current ratio. ​(round answer to two decimal​ places.) total current assets / total current liabilities = current ratio 99400 / 30000 = 3.31 3. compute eagle​'s debt ratio. ​(round answer to two decimal​ places.) total liabilities / total assets = debt ratio 65000 / 130000 = 0.50 do these ratio values and ratios look​ strong, weak or​ middle-of-the-road? net working capital is ▾ . this means ▾ current assets exceed current liabilities current liabilities exceed current assets and is a ▾ negative positive sign. eagle​'s current ratio is considered ▾ middle-of-the-road. strong. weak. eagle​'s debt ratio is considered ▾ middle-of-the-road. strong. weak. choose from any list or enter any number in the input fields and then continue to the next question.
