Ksju [112]3 years ago

Answer:

A placebo is a fake put into place in order to make a user believe something is happening when it is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

A placebo is a fake put into place in order to make a user believe something is happening when it is not. This is used often in medicine, where a doctor may tell a patient they are receiving treatment for some condition, but in fact they are getting nothing. Often times this can actually make a change for the patient due to simply believing they are getting treatment. The placebo effect is also used in Statistics, with 2 groups, one getting the treatment, and one simply receiving a placebo. This is helpful because it shows the effect of treatment or medication more accurately.

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

p = power washer and g = generator

6p + 6g = 90 .....multiply by 4

4p + 8g = 100 ....multiply by -6

---------------------

24p + 24g = 360 (result of multiplying by 4)

-24p - 48g = -600 (result of multiplying by -6)

---------------------add

-24g = - 240

g = -240 / -24

g = 10 <=== the generator cost $ 10 per hr

6p + 6g = 90

6p + 6(10) = 90

6p + 60 = 90

6p = 90 - 60

6p = 30

p = 30/6

p = 5 <==== the power washer costs $ 5 per hr

check...

4p + 8g = 100

4(5) + 8(10) = 100

20 + 80 = 100

100 = 100 (correct)
