Sheila is looking at some information for the obstacle course she is interested in completing. the x-coordinate is the number of the obstacle, while the y-coordinate is the average time to complete the obstacle, measured in minutes.
(1, 8.25), (2, 9.075), (3, 9.9825), (4, 10.98075)
sheila use an explicit formula to find the average time she will need for the 8th obstacle.
f(8) = 8.25(1.1)^8; f(8) = 17.685
f(8) = 8.25(1.1)^7; f(8) = 16.077
f(8) = 1.1(8.25)^7; f(8) = 2861345
f(8) = 1.1(8.25)^8; f(8) = 23606102

Ascientist studied a population of workers to determine whether verbal praise and/or tangible rewards affect employee productivity. in the study, some workers were offered verbal praise, some were offered tangible rewards (gift cards, presents, and some were offered neither. the productivity of each participant was measured throughout the study by recording the number of daily tasks completed by each employee. which inference might the scientists make based on the given information? a.) the number of daily tasks completed by each employee may influence the dependent variable, which is whether the employee receives verbal praise, tangible rewards, or neither. b.) verbal praise and/or tangible rewards may influence the independent variable, which is the number of daily tasks completed by each employee. c.) verbal praise and/or tangible rewards may influence the dependent variable, which is the number of daily tasks completed by each employee. d.) the dependent variables, which are verbal praise and tangible rewards, may influence the number of daily tasks completed by each employee.
