Can an answer be incorrect even if it looks reasonable?

Mathematics

Anna [14]3 years ago

Answer:

  • <em>Yes, an answer can be incorrect even it it looks reasonable.</em>

Explanation:

Yes, an answer can be incorrect even if it looks reasonable, for two main reasons:

  • The assumptions (premises or statements) on which the reasoning is based are wrong.
  • The reasoning sounds good but it is a fallacy.

To avoid the first condition you must be sure about the facts, which may be information from an experiment that you performed or from a source. In order for an answer be correct, make sure your premises are true.

Dealing with the second condition, a fallacy is an argument that seems strictly logical but is misleading: you must learn which reasonings are really valid; this is, that the conclusion unequivocally follows from the premises.

There are rules for the arguments to be valid, and that is the object of logic study.

Fallacies are sometimes used by those interested in supporting a point of view without having true reason on their side. You should have some knowledges about logic to avoid being victim of the fallacies, which can drive you to make wrong decisions.

If a 12 sided regular polygon rotates about its center at which angle of rotation will the image of the polygon coinside with th
Amanda [17]

Answer: 30 degrees

This is the minimum amount of rotation.

Why this value? Well because 360/12 = 30

Consider a triangle with 3 sides. Specifically I mean an equilateral triangle. We can rotate it 120 degrees to have it line up with itself. Now notice that 360/3 = 120.

For a square, we can rotate it 90 degrees and we can say 360/4 = 90

So the general rule is that the minimum angle of rotation is 360/n, where n is the number of sides. This rule only works for regular polygons. Regular polygons have the same side length and the same angle measure (the side and angle measure won't necessarily be equal).

So going back to this 12 sided dodecagon, we have n = 12 and 360/n = 360/12 = 30 as the minimum angle of rotation. Each 30 degree rotation will have the polygon match up perfectly with its old image. The preimage and image will be identical.

118,813,760 different combination license plates can the country produce

<h3 /><h3>permutations and combinations:</h3>

permutations and combinations, the various ways in which objects from a set may be selected, generally without replacement, to form subsets. This selection of subsets is called a permutation when the order of selection is a factor, a combination when order is not a factor. By considering the ratio of the number of desired subsets to the number of all possible subsets for many games of chance in the 17th century, the French mathematicians Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat gave impetus to the development of combinatorics and probability theory.

given that

in a certain country license plates consist of zero or one digit followed by four or five uppercase letters from the roman alphabet

X = 10 × 26 × 26 × 26 × 26 × 26

If three quarters of a number decreased by twenty is equal to eighty two, what is that number?
Studentka2010 [4]

A number is :

x

_________________________________

Three quarters of it means :

\frac{3}{4}x \\

_________________________________

Decrease by 20 means :

\frac{3}{4}x - 20 \\

_________________________________

Equals to 82 means :

\frac{3}{4}x - 20 = 82 \\

_________________________________

What is that number ?

x asked so we must solve the above equation for x.

Let's do it....

\frac{3}{4}x - 20 = 82 \\

Plus sides 20

\frac{3}{4}x = 82 + 20 \\

\frac{3}{4}x = 102 \\

Multiply sides by 4

3x = 102 \times 4

Divided sides by 3

x =  \frac{102 \times 4}{3} \\

x =  \frac{102}{3} \times 4 \\

Simplify

x = 34 \times 4

x = 136

So that number is 136 .

_________________________________

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.
