Malcolm has been watching a roulette-style game at a local charity bazaar. The game has only ten numbers on the wheel, and every

number except 8 has come up as a winner during the last 15 minutes. Malcolm decides to bet $10 on number 8, because it eventually has to come up. In this case, Malcolm is showing evidence of…

Answer:

Malcolm is showing evidence of gambler's fallacy.

This is the tendency to think previous results can affect future performance of an event that is fundamentally random.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each round of the roulette-style game is independent of each other. The probability that 8 will come up at any time remains the same, equal to the probability of each number from 1 to 10 coming up. That it has not come up in the last 15 minutes does not increase or decrease the probability that it would come up afterwards.

The point M(-6, -4) is translated 2 units right. What are the coordinates of the resulting point, M′?
fredd [130]
B) (-4, -4)

When moving to the right you are moving to a more POSITIVE region on the x-axis; meaning, the y-value (vertical axis) does not get affected unless you’re moving up or down.

Remember: (-6, -4)
X = -6
Y = -4

If you move 2 units to the right (x-axis) you go from -6 + 2 which equals -4. And again, you’re not moving up and down so your
y-value stays the same and your new coordinates are (-4, -4)

Which stem-and-leaf plot has a median of 3.2<br><br><br><br> page.2
DiKsa [7]
Find the median of each set:-

Median is middle number of a data set. If a data set has an odd number of numbers then the median is the middle number when ordered form least to greatest but if its an even number you have to find the mean for the middle 2 numbers when ordered for least to greatest. 

A.

1.2, 2.4, 3.2, 3.2, 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 4.7

Even numbers = 8
3.2 + 3.6 = 6.8
6.8 ÷ 2 = 
Median = 3.4
So this shows that A isn't the answer because the median of A is 3.4, not 3.2. 

B.

1.6, 2.8, 2.9, 3.1, 3.3, 3.6, 4.2, 4.5

Even numbers = 8
3.1 + 3.3 = 6.4
6.4 ÷ 2 = 3.2
Median = 3.2
<span>So this shows that B is the answer because the median of B is 3.2.

C. 

1.8, 2.0, 2.0, 2.2, 3.2, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9
</span>
Even numbers = 8
2.2 + 3.2 = 5.4
5.4 ÷ 2 = 2.7
Median = 2.7
<span>So this shows that C isn't the answer because the median of C is 2.7, not 3.2.
</span>
D. 

1.4, 1.7, 2.9, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.2, 3.2, 4
Odd numbers = 9
Median = 3.1

<span>So this shows that D isn't the answer because the median of D is 3.1, not 3.2.
</span>
The stem and leaf plot which median is 3.2 is B.

Answer:

a = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

4(a-2) = 2(a-4) + 2a

4a - 8 = 2a - 8 + 2a

4a - 2a - 2a = -8 + 8
