Madeline is working to teach her 4-year-old daughter, eliza, how to count. she places 10 buttons in one row with very little spa

ce between the buttons, and 8 buttons in another row with more space between the buttons; therefore, the second row is longer than the first. then madeline asks her daughter which row has more buttons. inevitably, eliza chooses the second row, even though she knows that 10 is more than 8. what is this an example of?

What Eliza is showing is an example of <u>“centration”</u>.

In psychology, centration is the tendency to focus on one significant characteristic in a situation and neglect those characteristics which are more relevant. In this case, Eliza focuses on the length of the row of buttons rather than the exact amount of buttons in a row.

Use the quadratic formula to determine the exact solutions to the equation <br> 6x^2 + 4x - 3 = 0
mezya [45]
To solve quadratics, the most correct and effective way, in my opinion, is the quadratic formula:

{\displaystyle x={\frac {-b\pm {\sqrt {b^{2}-4ac}}}{2a}}.}<span><span>

Plugging it in, we get:

</span></span>\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{16+72} }{12}  =  \frac{-4\pm 2\sqrt{22}}{12} =  \frac{-2\pm \sqrt{22} }{6}

So the final answer is:

\frac{ \sqrt{22}-2 }{6} and \frac{-2- \sqrt{22} }{6}

Use pascal's triangle to expand the binomial<br> (d-5y)^6<br><br> please show work
Ratling [72]
Pascals triangle to the 6th:
1                                     x^0
1 1                                  x^1
1 2 1                               x^2
1 3 3 1                           x^3
1 4 6 4 1                        x^4
1 5 10 10 5 1                x^5
1 6 15 20 15 6 1          x^6<span>

</span>the problem is to the 6th power so your going to use the 6th row of pascals triangle (don't count the first row). these numbers represent the coefficients of the variables

1(d-5y)^6 + 6(d-5y)^5 + 15(d-5y)^4 + 20(d-5y)^3 + 15(d-5y)^2 + 6(d-5y) + 1
then simplify

Find the exact solution of the system of equations of x^2+y^2-4x-6y+4=0 and x^2-4x-3y+4=0
gavmur [86]
We can readily know the x^2-4x+4=3y then use it to replace the same function in the first equation which refers to the 3y+y^2-6y=0 
                                                              y^2-3y=0
                                                             y(y-3)=0
                                                               y1=0 -----------y2=3
