It can't be proven correct.

Answer:

A generalization is defined as a broad idea, being applied to a group of people or things that are not entirely true.

Because there are always some examples of individuals or situations, where the generalization does not hold true.

For example-

I see two women wearing hats. So I will generalize that all women wear hats. This is wrong.

And when generalization is true in math like. for count by 10 rule, we know that the ones place stays the same and the tens place changes by one number. Like 21,31,41,51...... Here we can say that generalization is likely correct.

Sarah needs 10 feet of fabric for a project she is working on, but the store only sells the fabric in meters. One meter of fabri

Aleks [24]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The fabric will cost $4.58

D.$4.58

Since it's a conversion exercise, we need to pay special attention to the conversion procedure.

From the statement we know that:

$1ft=0.305m$

So, if she needs 10 feet of fabric, we need to convert it to meters, and then, calculate its cost.

We have that:

$10*1ft=10*0.305m\\\\10ft=3.05m$

Now, we have that each meter of fabric cost $1.50, so, 3.05m of fabric will cost:

$\frac{1m}{1.50(dollars)}=\frac{3.05m}{cost}\\\\cost=\frac{3.05m*1.50(dollars)}{1m}=4.575(dollars)=4.58(dollars)$

Hence, we have that the cost of the fabric will be $4.58.

The correct option is: D.$4.58

Have a nice day!

cestrela7 [59]

True, there are fees associated with investments. These fees are collected by institutions where the investments are placed. Fees include transaction fees, investment management fees, front end and back end fees among others. These fees are placed in order for the services of the financial institutions to continue and these are also mandated and regulated by the government.

N^2+100=20n<br><br> Please show work

adell [148]

Subtract 20n from both sides of the equation.
n^2+100-20n=0
factor using the perfect square rule.
(n-10)^2=0
set the n-10 equal to 0.
n-10=0
add 10 to both sides of the equation.
n=0

Subtract. Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form. 3 3/4 - 7/8

vfiekz [6]

I find that fractions can be tricky, so I convert them to decimals before subtracting.

3 3/4 = 3.75

7/8 = 0.875

3.75 - 0.875 = 2.875

Knowing that 0.875 = 7/8, we now know that our answer is 2 7/8.

Hope this helps!
