Help with problem in statistics? - statistical significance?
I have the answer, but unfortunately our textbook doesn't list even numbers & I wanted to double check: 26. A study compared surgery & splinting for subjects suffering fr carpal tunnel syndrome. It was found that among 73 patients treated w surgery, there was a 92% success rate. Among 83 patients treated w splints, there was a 72% success rate. Calculations using those results showed that if there really is no difference in success rates b/w surgery & splints, then there is about 1 chance in 1000 of getting success rates like the ones obtained in this study. Form a conclusion about statistical significance, but do not make any formal calculations. Either use results provided or make subjective judgements about the results. a. Should we conclude that surgery is better than splints for the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome? b. Does the result have statistical significance? Why or why not? c. Does the result have practical significance? d. Should surgery be the recommended treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome? ------ Shouldn't it be yes for all the answers?
How did you meet your significant other?
I met my husband when i was 12 yrs old me and a friend were riding bike through a neighborhood close to ours and as were riding i seen two young boys about our age off to the side of the road one was actually fixing his bike chain. As the young girl we were we had always set out to make new friends it just so happened that the two we met ended up becoming very close with us. while fixing his bike i noticed him having trouble and asked to fix he turned down the offer so we left about 5 mins later we pass back by and there still there so i hop off and say let me do it no longer did i hop off i had his bike fixed, at that point we introduced ourselves hi im christie and hi im autumn which was my friends name and then the boys were like hi im cole and this is my friend carlos, and thats when our friendship started we were invited to come hang out and grab a soda and after about 2 yrs of being friends we started dating i was 14 and he was 12 and we both were in middle school. now were grown up im 21 and hes 19 and were married and happier than ever, and weve got almost 8 yrs together. To me he was the most amazing most breathtaking human being i had ever seen and obiously for him he thought the same.
What is the IP subject in 11th and 12th class?
I studied the subject IP in my 11th and 12th standard. The main reason for opting it was that everyone said that C++ is difficult to score in and I was in no mood of studying anything accept JEE, the most popular option was PE but from my past record I knew I sucked at mugging up things so IP was the option left out.This came out very well in IP you learn basics of MySQL, html, and Java so just the very basics of front end developing. This is a pretty basic course doesn’t require much of studying and after this course you wouldn’t have much trouble in C course which is in the first year of engineering.According to me this is the best course as it neither require much studying during the course (as in C) nor before the exam (as in PE) also introduce you to front end developing.
Can we study law after taking science in class 12 ?
Yes. You can pursue law after taking science in classes 11 and 12 in two ways:Straight after class 12th: There are five year long integrated courses like B.A., LL.B. and B.B.A., LL.B. being offered National Law Universities across India and other private universities too. The predominant entrance exams are CLAT, AILET, SET and LSAT. Some universities also take admissions on the basis of marks in class 12.After graduation: There are three year long LL.B. courses that you can pursue after graduation in a field that you like. As far as I know, there is significant demand of scientists and technologists in the patent law area.So, science in class 12 is definitely no bar for you pursuing law. In fact, I personally believe that it instills a unique mindset of logical thinking that will only help you in your legal career should you choose to pursue it.All the best!
Under the education section on a job application, does "Major Studies/Degrees pertain to a high school diploma?
For a person who has no college, the answer is HS Diploma for degree. Under Major/Studies most people who attend the basic curriculum in high school have either a general studies or college prep program. However, you may have attended a specialized curriculum at your local Health Careers High School, or Science and Engineering High School, or maybe you were in a Vocational Tech program that prepared you for a specialized job following high school. These would be the most applicable. If you learned a specialized language skill such as Spanish, it is good, but use care in putting it on the application if you are not at a conversational level. They might hire you and expect you to work in a bilingual position, and then fire you "for cause" based on misrepresentation on your application.
Statistics help! Chi-Square Test for Two-Way Tables?
CHI SQUARED TEST FOR HOMOGENIETY OF SEVERAL CATEGORICAL POPULATIONS Null hypothesis H0: the 4 'populations' are homogeneous with respect to the 'categories'. (i.e., the proportions of each population falling in the first category is the same for all populations, the proportion falling in the second category is also the same for all populations, and so on) Alternative hypothesis Ha: the populations are not homogenous (for at least one of the 2 categories, the proportions are not identical for all populations) r: populations = 4 (Types) k: categories = 2 (Gender) Observed counts are displated in a 'contingency table' consisting of 4 rows, one for each population, and 2 columns, one for each category (a 4 by 2 table).

Why is math important?
Research by the Commonwealth Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST)shows that there is a clear connection between students’ experiences science and mathematics at school and the likelihood that they will continue with science and mathematics in the post-compulsory years or take up science or mathematics related career. Scientific literacy and mathematical understanding also provide young people with the ability to participate in the production and use of scientific knowledge, and to contribute to problem solving and decision making about ethical, social, cultural, environmental, gender, economic and health issues. The Science and Mathematics Strategy aims to improve student engagement in and satisfaction with science and mathematics learning. Specifically it aims to: improve the quality and scope of all science and mathematics teaching and hence the science and mathematics learning outcomes of all students ensure that all students have access to an exciting, comprehensive, relevant and up to date reception to year 12 curriculum in science and mathematics focus on the development of transferable high order science and mathematics skills in students increase retention rates of all students in the senior years and, in particular disadvantaged students in order to increase the participation of these students science, mathematics and technology-based careers promote teaching practices that challenge and inspire and take into account students’ needs and interests examine current structures and pedagogies in South Australian Government schools and ensure they match world’s best practice in science and mathematics education promote pedagogies that enhance literacy and numeracy through science and mathematics learning create sustainable links with science and mathematics based ‘high tech’ business and industry to enhance learning in science and mathematics support an environment that is conducive to innovative and creative thinking and practice in science and mathematics.
