STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

These people are using <u>the representativeness heuristic </u>to make this faulty guess. A correct guess would have been made if they had used <u>base rate information</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Representativeness heuristic occurs when the similarity of items or events causes individuals to be perplexed about the likelihood of a given result. People usually make the error of guessing that two comparable things or occurrences are more closely related than they are. Therefore, the similarity of an engineer and a calculator confuse the people to guess that Albert is an engineer.

Base rate information refers to the information provided by base rates which are a type of statistic that is used to describe the percentage of a population that exhibits a certain feature. Base rates suggest the likelihood of something based on the lack of other facts. Using the information in the question as an example, if 20% of the employees were engineers and 80% were lawyers, the base rate of lawyers is simply 80%. This implies that Albert is a lawyer, but we won't know for sure until we look at the total number of workers that the base rate information reveals that he is a lawyer.

Therefore, these people are using <u>the representativeness heuristic </u>to make this faulty guess. A correct guess would have been made if they had used <u>base rate information</u>.

Answer: ||, |||, |


Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Segments UV and WZ are parallel with line ST intersecting both at points Q and R respectively.We prove that corresponding angles are congruent as follows:               Statements                                                            Reasons

segment UV is parallel to segment WZ                                 Given                    Points S, Q, R, and T all lie on the same line.                       GivenII.)  m∠SQT = 180°                                                     Definition of a Straight AngleIII.) m∠SQV + m∠VQT = m∠SQT                               Angle Addition Postulate I.)   m∠SQV + m∠VQT = 180°                                   Substitution Property of Equalitym∠VQT + m∠ZRS = 180°                                      Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem

m∠SQV + m∠VQT = m∠VQT + m∠ZRS                Substitution Property of Equality

m∠SQV + m∠VQT − m∠VQT = m∠VQT + m∠ZRS − m∠VQT

m∠SQV = m∠ZRS                                                  Subtraction Property of Equality

∠SQV ≅ ∠ZRS                                                        Definition of Congruency Therefore, the most logical order of statements and reasons I, II, and III to complete the proof is ||, |||, |. I hope this helped.
