Cocaine addiction is very hard to break. Even among addicts trying hard to break the addiction, relapse is common. (A relapse is when a person trying to break out of the addiction fails and uses cocaine again.) A study is conducted to investigate the effectiveness of two drugs, desipramine and lithium, in the treatment of cocaine addiction. The subjects in the six-week study were cocaine addicts seeking treatment. The 72 subjects were randomly assigned to one of three groups (desipramine, lithium, or a placebo, with 24 subjects in each group) and the study was double-blind. Now we are able to consider all three groups together and test whether relapse rate differs by drug. Ten of the subjects taking desipramine relapsed, 18 of those taking lithium relapsed, and 20 of those taking the placebo relapsed.(a) Create a two-way table from the information given. (b) Find the expected counts. Is it appropriate to analyze the data with a chi-square test? (c) If it is appropriate to use a chi-square test, complete the test, give the chi-square statistic, the p-value, and an informative conclusion. Is it appropriate to analyze the data with a chi-square test? (d) If the results are significant, which drug is most effective? Can we conclude that the choice of treatment drug causes a change in the likelihood of a relapse?

1- is the product of two rational numbers irrational or rational? first, make a hypothesis by multiplying two rational numbers. then, use variables such as x=a/b and y=c/d and the closure property of integers to prove your hypothesis. 2- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis. 3- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in part b?
