Answer:

Hasty Generalization

Step-by-step explanation:

Hasty generalization describes an argument based on the idea that if you have a few cases, you can draw a conclusion.

Hasty generalization occurs when a conclusion is drawn from an inadequate number of cases, without sufficiently analyzing them.

For example-

We say that three cases of asthma have occurred along the park where the high voltage power lines run. And we conclude that - the power lines must be the cause of this illness.

So, this type of conclusion is hasty generalization.

Find the average of e^-x over [0,3]

yaroslaw [1]

The average value of a continuous function f(x) over an interval [a, b] is given by the integral,

$\displaystyle \frac1{b-a}\int_a^b f(x)\,\mathrm dx$

Compute the integral for f(x) = e ⁻ˣ over [0, 3] :

$\displaystyle \frac1{3-0}\int_0^3e^{-x}\,\mathrm dx=\frac13(-e^{-x})\bigg|_0^3=\frac13(-e^{-3}-(-e^{-0})) = \frac13 \left(1-\frac1{e^3}\right) = \boxed{\frac{e^3-1}{3e^3}}$

The measure of the angles of a triangle are in extended ratio 2:2:8. What is the measure of the smallest angle?

sammy [17]

Sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
2x + 2x + 8x = 180
12x = 180
x = 180/12 = 15

Therefore, the smallest angle mmeasures 2(15) = 30 degrees.

John currently has enough money to buy 45 books. If each book cost 10 cents less, John could buy 5 more books. How much money do

Andrews [41]

Set up an equation when x is the cost of a book. If we know that 45 + 5 = 50:
45x = 50(x - .1)
Now, multiply across the parentheses:
45x = 50x - 5 (Now, combine terms over the equal sign)
-50x -50x
-5x = -5 (Now, divide off the -5 from both sides)
/-5 /-5
x = 1
This means that the current cost of a book is $1. This works out if you test it.
Hope this helps!
