- Problem II An education specialist conducts a study to determine which of three teaching methods is most effective with regard to adult ability to solve a particular type of logic problem. From a sample of thirty adult subjects, ten are randomly assigned to receive instruction same test, and each obtains a test score which measures their ability to solve the using each teaching method. At the end of the instruction period, all subjects take the particular type of problem. The specialist believes that several other variables may have an impact on the test scores, and thus includes these variables in the data set and data analysis. The resulting data set includes the following variables: "subject name", "teaching method (standard method, new method A new method B), "test score (0 to 10). "gender (male, femále)", "age (in years)", "high-sehool diploma (yes, no)", "race (Asian, African-American, Caucasian)". 1.

- Help me fast so that I will give Upvote.arrow_forwardLogic reasoning is the foundation of formal methods. Propositional logic and Predicate Logic are conceptually the two most popular logics. A discrete mathematics undergraduate student wants to know how propositional and predicate logics might be used for software testing. This student needs your assistance in his or her search. One suggestion may be to outline the strengths and weaknesses of both logic and its application as a tool for software testing. Which logic is best for formal programme verification, and how should this be done?arrow_forwardHi, We are learning about Logic and Axiomatic Systems. I have trouble: Identifying which statements are simple statement, and compound statement, and why? And what are the connectives involved if a statement is a compound statement? Here are the given statements: Statement 1: Both players start at the same time. Statement 2: Each player decides which of the seven houses in his control he wishes to begin with. Statement 3: He/she picks up all of the shells from his chosen hole, and moves his hand around the board in a clockwise-direction, dropping one shell in each hole or head he passes over but excluding the opponent's head. Statement 4: If the last shell on the player's hand lands on an empty house, then he/she stops and wait for the next turn. Please help me. Thank you!arrow_forward
