A study of tutoring services at a community college shows a strong positive association between time spent in the math lab (in hours) and math exam average (as a percent). Is the following statement valid or invalid? a. Students who spend more time in the math lab tend to have higher exam averages.
b. The tutoring services in the math lab are improving student performance on math exams.
c. To improve student performance in math classes, the college should require students to attend the math lab.

A. Invalid

B. Valid

C. Valid.

Step-by-step explanation: A valid statement or argument is one in which the premise correlates with the conclusion.

It means that if all the premises are true then the conclusions from such premises must also be true. In the above statement, the first conclusion is invalid as it's conclusion does not correlates with its premise when considering the argument. Both conclusions B and C are valid as they correlates with their respective premises when considering the argument or statement made.

answer:   expression= p+p*d%

price reduction + sale price = $625

sale price: $p+$p*d%

where d% is the percentage of discount

step-by-step explanation:

original price = p

price went down by $150 price reduction $p*d%

sale price= $ 475

therefore the price before sale is: $625

and the expression that shows the price before sale is: p+p*d%
