imagine an investigation in which 40 students were asked to determine their chronotype by choosing from among four chronotypes instead of three: morning person, night person, neither, or both. If there is no relationship between chronotype and birth month, about what fraction of the students would you expect to pick the chronotype that matches their birth month? why do you think this?

Step-by-step explanation:

A chronotype is a behavioral manifestation of an underlying circadian rhythms of the myriad physical processes.

The chronotype word may be defined as an individual's natural tendency to remain active mostly at certain times of the day. Some people remain active and alert in the early time of the day and some are alert and active in the late night.

The chronotypes are : Morning person, night person, neither/both.

It is assume that the birth month and year of a person influences his or her chronotype. But if birth month is not related to theses personality traits of a person, then it can be expected that nearly 1/3rd of the fraction of the students in class picks the chronotype which corresponds to their birth type.

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
