Is −8 a solution to the equation 3x = 16 − 5x? How do you know?

Answer:

d. Ad hominem

Step-by-step explanation:

A fallacy can be defined as a mistaken or false belief that are based on illogical arguments or reasoning.

However, a lot of people might actually think it to be true but it isn't. There are various types of fallacy, these include;

I. Black or white.

II. Non sequitur.

III. Appeal to moderation.

IV. Bandwagon.

V. Appeal to authority.

VI. Straw man.

VII. Oversimplification or hasty generalization.

VIII. Appeal to ignorance.

IX. Appeal to pity.

X. Ad hominem.

Ad hominem can be defined as a type of fallacy in which the motive, character, or some other aspect of a person is attacked rather than his or her position.

This ultimately implies that, Ad hominem is typically based on prejudices, emotions, or feelings rather than appealing to reason, intellect or substance.

In this scenario, John Bardeen's research work at the Advanced Institute for Physics has progressed so slowly that even his colleagues call him a plodder. As a result, the speaker concluded that it's prudent at present not to take seriously his current theory on how strings constitute the smallest of subatomic particles. Thus, the logical fallacy described above is an ad hominem because John's slowness in his research work is bone of contention for the speaker rather than analyzing and concentrating on his theory about strings.

Answer and Explanation:

The irrelevant alternative criterion states that if two candidates A and B contest for an election and candidate B is preferred to candidate A then any other candidate X should not cause candidate A to win the election.

In this case if Mason was candidate A, then candidate B should still win by the majority criterion method and the irrelevant alternative criterion would still be supported. However if he is candidate B then the irrelevant alternative criterion is not supported.

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

The table represents a proportional relationship.

To find:

The missing value from the table.

Solution:

If y is proportional to x, then

[tex]y\propto x[/tex]

[tex]y=kx[/tex]                 ...(i)

Where, k is a constant of proportionality.

The relationship passes through the point (-3,-1). Substituting [tex]x=-3,y=-1[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]-1=k(-3)[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{-1}{-3}=k[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{3}=k[/tex]

Putting [tex]k=\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{3}x[/tex]           ...(ii)

We need to find the y-value for [tex]x=-12[/tex].

Substituting [tex]x=-12[/tex] in (ii), we get

[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{3}(-12)[/tex]

[tex]y=-4[/tex]

Therefore, the missing value in the table is -4. Hence, option D is correct.

Answer:

After 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Julie invests $ 200 per month in an account that earns 6% interest per year, compounded monthly, and Leah invests $ 250 per month in an account that earns 5% interest per year, compounded monthly, to determine the amount of each after 10 years, the following calculations must be performed:

200 x (1 + 0.06 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X

200 x 1.005 ^ 120 = X

200 x 1.8193 = X

363.88 = X

250 x (1 + 0.05 / 12) ^ 10x12 = X

250 x 1.00416 ^ 120 = X

250 x 1.647 = X

411.75 = X

Therefore, after 10 years, Julie's account balance will be $ 363.88 and Leah's account balance will be $ 411.75, thus Leah will have more money in her account.

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

You first find out how many cubes can fit into each measurement, then multiply them. (2*4*3=24)

Answer:

It will take 24 cubes to fill the rectangular prism.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume of a cube with side lengths of 1/2 cm:

1/2^3 = 1/8

1/8 cm^3

Find the volume of the whole rectangular prism (lwh):

1 x 3/2 x 2

= 3/2 x 2

= 3

3 cm^3

Divide the volume of the prism by the bolume of one cube:

3 ÷ 1/8 = 24

Therefore it will take 24 cubes to fill the prism. Hope this helps!

Answer:

mean = 7

median = 7

range = 9

mid range = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3, 5, 6, 7, 7, 9, 12

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest values of a set of observations

Range = highest value - lowest value

12 - 3 = 9  

Median can be described as the number that occurs in the middle of a set of numbers that are arranged either in ascending or descending order

3, 5, 6, 7, 7, 9, 12

median = 7

Mean is the average of a set of numbers. It is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the total number

Mean = sum of the numbers / total number

(6 + 12 + 5 + 7+  7 + 3 + 9) / 7 = 7

Mid range = (highest value + lowest value) / 2

(12 + 3) / 2 = 7.5

Answer:

533.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression;

64.050÷0.12

Express first as a fraction

64.050 =  64050/1000

0.12 = 12/100

Divide both fractions

= 64050/1000÷12/100

= 64050/1000 *100/12

= 64050/10 * 1/12

= 64050/120

= 533.75

Hence the required answer is 533.75

Answer:

h=2

Step-by-step explanation:

f is translated right 2 units (so h=2) and up 2 units (so k=2)

The value of h is 2.

Translation of functions is defined as the when each point in the original graph is moved by a fixed units in the same direction.

There are horizontal translation and vertical translation of functions.

A function f(x) when translated horizontally leads to the function g(x) which is equal to g(x) = f(x ± k) where k is the units to which the function is translated.

And the vertical translation leads to the function g(x) = f(x) ± k, where k is the units to which the function is translated.

Here the original function is, f(x) = 3ˣ.

The point corresponding to x = 0 in f(x) is x = 2 in g(x).

That is (0, 1) is translated to (2, 3).

f(x) is horizontally translated to the right.

3ˣ translates to 3ˣ⁻².

Hence the value of h is 2.

Answer:

0.0668 = 6.68% probability a randomly selected year will have an average snowfall above 200 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Normally distributed with a average of 170 inches, and a standard deviation of 20 inches.

This means that [tex]\mu = 170, \sigma = 20[/tex]

What is the probability a randomly selected year will have an average snowfall above 200 inches?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 200. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{200 - 170}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9332.

1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

0.0668 = 6.68% probability a randomly selected year will have an average snowfall above 200 inches.

Answer:

26.32%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that both children are boys would be a sequence of events. Therefore, in order to calculate this we need to multiply the probability of the first baby being a boy with the probability of the second baby being a boy. Since the probability of any baby being a boy is 51.3%, we simply multiply this value in decimal form by itself.

51.3 / 100 = 0.513

0.513 * 0.513 = 0.263169 or 26.32%

Answer:

2107 marbles can be stored in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a merchant keeps marble in a cylindrical plastic container that has a diameter of 28cm and height of 35cm, and a marble has a diameter of 25mm, to determine the number of marbles that can be stored in such a container if air space accounts for 20 % between marbles, the following calculation must be performed, knowing that the volume of a cylinder is equal to height x π x radius²:

35 x 3.14 x (28/2) ² = X

109.9 x (14 x 14) = X

109.9 x 196 = X

21,540.4 = X

In turn, the volume of each 25mm diameter marble is equal to:

25mm = 2.5cm

4/3 x 3.14 x 1.25³ = X

4.18666 x 1.953125 = X

8.1770 = X

21,540.4 x 0.8 = 17,232.32

17,232.32 / 8,177 = 2,107.41

Therefore, 2107 marbles can be stored in the container.

Answer:

The rate at which the distance between the cars increasing two hours later=52mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Speed of one car, x'=48 mi/h

Speed of other car, y'=20 mi/h

We have to find the rate at which the distance between the cars increasing two hours later.

After 2 hours,

Distance traveled by one car

[tex]x=48\times 2=96 mi[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]Distance=Time\times speed[/tex]

Distance traveled by other car

[tex]y=20\times 2=40 mi[/tex]

Let z be the distance between two cars after 2 hours later

[tex]z=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex]z=\sqrt{(96)^2+(40)^2}[/tex]

z=104 mi

Now,

[tex]z^2=x^2+y^2[/tex]

Differentiate w.r.t t

[tex]2z\frac{dz}{dt}=2x\frac{dx}{dt}+2y\frac{dy}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]z\frac{dz}{dt}=x\frac{dx}{dt}+y\frac{dy}{dt}[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex]104\frac{dz}{dt}=96\times 48+40\times 20[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dz}{dt}=\frac{96\times 48+40\times 20}{104}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dz}{dt}=52mi/h[/tex]

Hence, the rate at which the distance between the cars increasing two hours later=52mi/h
