Identify the ethical issue(s) in each experiment. Beginning in the 1940s, the Department of Medicine at the University of Chicago tested anti-malaria medications on inmates at the Stateville Penitentiary. Inmates readily volunteered, as their parole would be reviewed upon completion of their sentence. Inmates who participated in the study reported that they were informed of the risks involved in participating in the study, including the possibility of death.
In the 1960s, Stanley Milgram studied the willingness of subjects to obey an authority figure, even at the risk of being harmed. The subjects believed they were taking part in a study on learning. They were assigned to the role of teacher and were ordered to administer electrical shocks with increasing voltage to the learner whenever the learner made an error. The learner was an actor who remained unharmed. The subjects were not initially told that it was a study of obedience, as this might affect the outcome, and they were not prepared for possible psychological distress.
In the 1950s and 60s, Saul Krugman infected mentally disabled children enrolled at the Willowbrook State School in New York with hepatitis in order to better understand how the disease spread and how it could be combatted. Parents agreed to enroll their children in the study in exchange for admission to the school.

Answer:

1. Subjects were not aware of the purpose of the experiment.

2. Subjects were not aware of all potential risks.

Subjects were not aware of the purpose of the experiment.

3. Subjects were coerced into participating

Explanation:

Ethics are the moral principles and codes that guide our daily decisions and actions. Ethical issues in conducting experiments or research aim at protecting the dignity of subjects or participants in the research. Major ethical issues in conducting research include: Respect for anonymity and confidentiality, beneficence(should not harm participants), and informed consent(independently volunteers after clear comprehensive information on research).

1. Experiment violates informed consent as participants were not aware of the purpose of research.

2. Experiment violates informed consent and beneficence as participants weren't fully informed and faced the risk of being harmed.

3. Experiment violates beneficence and informed consent as participants faced the risk of being harmed and did not independently volunteer for the research.

A caterer is agrranging 72 ham sandwiche and 48 pimento cheese sandwiches on serving trays. He would like to arrange the sandwiches so tht each tray has the same number of each kind of sandwich. The number of ham sandwiches on a tray does not need to equal the number of pimento cheese sandwiches on the tray. What is the maximum number of traysthe caterer can use? .

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest number of trays the caterer can split the 72 ham sandwiches  and 48 pimento cheese sandwiches into can be determined by calculating the highest common factor and 48 and 72

Factors of 48 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.

Factors of 72= 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 72.

the highest common factor is 48 ad 72 is 24

Find the equation of a quadratic function in general form whose graph has points: (-2, 3) (0, 3) and (-4,-5).

Try your best to show complete work & explain your strategy.

Answers

Answer:

-x²-2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing I noticed is that the first and second point has the same y intercept despite being only 2 x coordiantes away. This must mean that the vertex's x coordiante is probably (-1,4)

Because the vertex is probably (-1,4) the graph must also be concave down because the point (-4,-5) is below it

writing this in vertex form we get

-a(x+1)²+4

Where a is some constant

solve for a by plugging in (0,3)

3= -a(0+1)²+4

3= -a+4

-1= -a

a=1

therefore the equation looks like

-(x+1)²+4

expanding this so that it's in stantard form...

-(x²+x+x+1)+4

-x²-2x+3

Answers

Answer:

The length of the arc is 10 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, the length of an arc is calculated as;

theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

theta represents the central angle subtended by the arc which is a right angle according to the question (a right angle is 90 degrees)

r is the circle radius which is 20 inches

so we have the length of the arc as;

90/360 * 2 * pi * 20 = 40 pi/4 = 10 pi

RU is a line which needs to equal 180 degrees. This means angle VSR + VSU needs to equal 180.

VSU = 100

VSR = 180 - 100 = 80

Answer: VSR = 80

Answer:

∠ VSR = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ VSR and ∠ VSU are adjacent angles and sum to 180° , then

∠ VSR + 100° = 180° ( subtract 100° from both sides )

In right ΔDEF, DF = 20, m∠ F = 90˚, EF = 17. Which of the following is true? Does option 5 apply

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

ΔDEF is a right triangle with two sides,

EF = 17 units

DF = 20 units

By applying Pythagoras theorem in the given triangle,

(20)² = DF² + (17)²

DF² = 400 - 289

DF = √111

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this will help you mark me as brinalist friend please

The amount paid for the 5 pound of almond by Nachelle is $27.75.

What is meant by the term equation?In its most basic form, an equation is a numerical declaration that demonstrates that two formulas are equal. 3x + 25 = 14, for example, is an equation whereby a 3x + 25 and 14 are 2 expressions separated by a 'equal' sign.

Let 'p' be the number of pounds of almonds purchased by Nachelle.

Let 'c' be the total cost paid.

The cost of per pound of the almonds is $6.50 per pound.

The amount of the coupon is $4.75.

Thus, the equation will be ;

c = 6.50p - 4.75   ......equation.

For number of pounds p = 5.

c = 6.50×5 - 4.75

c = $27.75

Thus, the amount paid for the 5 pound of almond by Nachelle is $27.75.

Draw a diagram of the archway modeled by the equation y = -x2 + 5x + 24. Find and label the y-intercept and the x-intercepts on the sketch. Then find and label the width of the archway at its base and the height of the archway at its highest point, assuming the base of the archway is along the x-axis.

Answers

Answer:

1) Please find the attached drawing of the archway created with MS Excel

2) The y-intercept is (0, 24)

The x-intercepts are (-3, 0), and (8, 0)

3) The width of the archway at its base is 11

The height of the archway at its highest point = 30.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function representing the archway is y = -x² + 5·x + 24

1) Please find attached the required drawing of the archway created with MS Excel

2) The y-intercept is given by the point where x = 0

Therefore, we have, the y-value at the y-intercept = -0² + 5×0 + 24 = 24

The y-intercept = (0, 24)

The x-intercept is given by the point where y = 0

Therefore, the x-values at the x-intercept are found using the following equation;

0 = -x² + 5·x + 24

x² - 5·x - 24 = 0

By inspection, we have;

x² - 8·x + 3·x - 24 = 0

x·(x - 8) + 3·(x - 8) = 0

∴ (x + 3) × (x - 8) = 0

Either (x + 3) = 0, and x = -3, or (x - 8) = 0, and x = 8

Therefore, the x-intercepts are (-3, 0), and (8, 0)

3) The width of the archway at its base = The distance between the x-values at the two x-intercepts

∴ The width of the archway at its base = 8 - (-3) = 11

The highest point of the arch is given by the vertex of the parabola, y = a·x² + b·x + c, which has the x-value of the vertex = -b/(2·a)

∴ The x-value of the vertex of the given parabola, y = -x² + 5·x + 24, is x = -5/(2×(-1)) = 2.5

Therefore;

The y-value of the vertex, is y = -(2.5)² + 5×2.5 + 24 = 30.25 = The height of the archway at its highest point

∴ The height of the archway at its highest point = 30.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

it is right answer

Answer:

x = 24, y = 131

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in Δ ABC = 180°

Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

72 + 35 + 25 + 2x = 180 , that is

2x + 132 = 180 ( subtract 132 from both sides )

2x = 48 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 48

--------------------------------------------

Similarly in the lower triangle

25 + x + y = 180

25 + 24 + y = 180

49 + y = 180 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

y = 131
