Answer:

d. Variable ratio

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to determine that gambling at a slot machine is an example of which reinforcement schedule.

Let us see our given choices one by one.

a. Fixed ratio

We know that in fixed ratio schedule, reinforcement is delivered after the completion of a number of responses. An example of fixed ratio is a reward to every 6th response.

b. Fixed interval

We know that in fixed interval schedule the first response is rewarded only after a specified amount of time has elapsed. An example of fixed interval schedule is weekly paycheck.

c. Variable interval

We know that in variable interval schedule, the reinforcement is delivered at changing and unpredictable intervals of time.

d. Variable ratio

In variable ratio schedule, a response is reinforced after an unpredictable number of responses. Gambling and lottery are examples of variable ratio.

Therefore, option 'd' is the correct choice.

For your vegetable garden, you plan to plant 5 12 of it in corn, 1 6 in different kinds of beans, and 1 12 in tomatoes. You will

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{9}$ part of the garden will be planted in onions and squash combined.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

For your vegetable garden, you plan to plant 5 12 of it in corn, 1 6 in different kinds of beans, and 1 12 in tomatoes.

You will plant the remainder equally in eggplant, onions, and squash.

Now, to find the part of garden that will be planted in onions and squash combined.

Part of garden plan for planting corn = $\frac{5}{12}$

Part of garden plan for planting kinds of bean = $\frac{1}{6}$

Part of garden plan for planting tomatoes = $\frac{1}{12}$

So, adding all the parts of corn, beans and tomatoes:

$\frac{5}{12}+\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{12} \\\\=\frac{5+2+1}{12} \\\\=\frac{8}{12}$

Now, to get the rest of the parts of garden use to plant eggplant, onions, and squash we subtract $\frac{8}{12}$ from 1 whole:

$1-\frac{8}{12} \\\\=\frac{12-8}{12} \\\\=\frac{4}{12}$

As, given planting the remainder equally in eggplant, onions, and squash.

So, each will be planted in part of:

$\frac{4}{12} \div 3$

$=\frac{4}{12}\times \frac{1}{3}$

$=\frac{4}{36}$

On simplifying it:

$=\frac{1}{9}$ .

Thus, $\frac{1}{9}$ part of the garden for each eggplant, onions, and squash.

Now, to get the part of the garden will be planted in onions and squash combined we add $\frac{1}{9}$ part of garden planting for onions and $\frac{1}{9}$ of squash:

$\frac{1}{9} +\frac{1}{9} \\\\=\frac{1+1}{9} \\\\=\frac{2}{9}$

Therefore, $\frac{2}{9}$ part of the garden will be planted in onions and squash combined.

2. Because it is being reflected across the X axis, the X coordinate would change signs, but the Y coordinate would remain the same sign.

A(-6,-4) would become A'(6,-4)

B(-3,5) would become B'(3,5)

C(1,-1) would become C'(-1,-1)

The answer would be the third choice.

3. Reflected across the Y axis, the X would stay the same sign and the Y would change signs.

P(-2,-4) would become P'(-2,4)

Q(2,-5) would become Q'(2,5)

R(-1,-8) would become R'(-1,8)

The answer would be the second choice.

Describe the pattern. Then find the next two numbers in the pattern. 2,8,32,128

s344n2d4d5 [400]

<span>2, 8, 32,128

8/2 = 4
32/8 = 4
128/32 = 4

Each number is being multiplied by 4.
128*4 = 512
512*4 = 2048

512 and 2048 are the next two numbers.</span>
