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.

Question 11 point(s) Jared made Ask Your Teacher cups of snack mix for a party. His guests ate Ask Your Teacher of the mix. How
liq [111]

Answer:

8\frac{1}{2} cups

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the quantity of snack mix Jared guest ate, we multiply the quantity of snack mix the guest ate by the quantity of snack mix Jared made. i.e we determine \frac{2}{3}of12\frac{3}{4} by multiplying both fractions together

quantity of snack mix Jared guest ate = \frac{2}{3}of12\frac{3}{4}=\frac{2}{3}*12\frac{3}{4}=\frac{2}{3}*\frac{51}{4}=\frac{17}{2} =8\frac{1}{2}

Select the correct answer.
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The answer is the first choice, that the outcomes (getting a 2, 4, or 6 or getting a 1, 3, or 5) are equally likely because the frequencies are close.

Step-by-step explanation:

The second choice isn't true because there isn't a lot of variation. If there was, this would mean they aren't equally likely.

The third choice isn't true because it doesn't make a statement about why the odd/even identity of the sets should affect the likelihood. (Besides, we know they are equally likely.)

The fourth choice isn't true because there is not a lot of difference in the relative frequency.

What is the answer to this equation
Scilla [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see

Firstly produce the line to Q such that it passes through and dives Q into two.

The interior angle of the Pentagon at the point Q=sum of its interior angle/5

The angle=540°/5=108°

That would make the exterior angle there=180°-108°=72°

Again,find the interior angle of the heptagon at the point Q=(sum of its interior angles)/7

Angle=900°/7=128.57°≈129°

That would make the exterior angle there=180°-129°=51°

Since Q was divided into the two exterior angles,we sum them up to obtain the angle value of Q

That is 51°+72°=123°
