At a school, there are two different math classes for children of the same age. The two classes have different teachers. The school principal is interested in gauging the effectiveness of two different teaching methods and asks each teacher to try one of the methods. At the end of the semester both classes are given the same test and the results are compared. In this experiment, what is the treatment variable?
Give an example of a variable that could confound the results.

Answer from: dorkygirl

Treatment variable = Teaching methods

Confounding variable = Teacher's teaching prowess

Step-by-step explanation:

The treatment variable here is that variable which is applied on the student in other to ovtujba measure of the dependent or response variable, the response variable here is the test score, while the treatment variable is the independent variable, which are the teaching methods.

The confounding variable is that variable which is capable of causing a spurious association in our measurement and also has an effect on the test score. However, this variable isn't taken into account during our experiment. One possible confounding variable could be the Teacher's individual teaching prowess regardless of the teaching method. This could cause the student to get a better grasp of what is being taught by one teacher than the other.

Answer from: Quest

see below

step-by-step explanation:

7. there are 10 data points in the set. the middle point is between 5 and 6. the middle point in the top half is 8 and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term point 8 = 100 point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final point 8 = 93 point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6. b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical . there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5. the iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games. since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.

3. the exam median is much higher than the class median. the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2. there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.
