You are called to an emergent cesarean section of a full term neonate due to non-reassuring fetal heart rate tracings. Mother was noted to have a uterine rupture. Apgars were 0 at 1 minute of life, 3 at 5 minutes of life, and 4 at 10 minutes of life. The neonate required a full resuscitation following birth including intubation/ventilation, chest compressions, two 10 ml/kg normal saline boluses, and several doses of epinephrine. The neonate has an abnormal neurological exam compatible with severe hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy and has been having seizures. At 24 hours of age, the Na+ level is 128,  the creatinine is 1.6, and the urine output is 0.5 ml/kg/hr.  Which of the following actions are appropriate?

Multiply, and then simplify if possible.

Simplify,

Find the equation of the line that contains the given point and with the given slope. Write the equation in slope-intercept form, if possible. slope=3

A researcher was interested in evaluating an intervention that would impact body mass. The researcher was also interested in evaluating if there were sex differences in body mass. The researcher recruited 10 males and 10 females for the study. For the 10 males, 5 males were randomly assigned to the intervention and 5 males were randomly assigned to a control condition. Similarly, for the 10 females, 5 females were randomly assigned to the intervention and 5 females were randomly assigned to a control condition. How many Main Effects are there in this design (statistically significant or not statistically significant)?
