If a+b=8, b+c=10 and c+a=12, what is the value of a+b+c?

The puzzle is solved by defining each variable in terms of another variable & a number & then making substitutions. Begin by taking each sum to define one of the variables in terms of the other. (Different combinations are available, but I’ll follow the a,b,c order.)

a+b=8 becomes a=8-b

b+c=10 becomes b=10-c

c+a=12 becomes c=12-a

Now subtract two of the equations that contain the same variable. I’ll pick two that contain an a: c+a =12 & a+b=8. Subtracting the latter from the former eliminates the “a”s, leaving c-b=4. Adding b to both sides to isolate c gives c=b+4. From above we can take b=10-c to substitute for b in c=b+4, giving us c=(10-c) + 4). Simplify the right side to c=14-c, add c to both sides, giving 2c=14, & then divide both sides by 2 to obtain c=7.

Replace the c in b=10-c with 7 to

If A = B and B = C, does A = C?

In mathematics = is assumed to be a transitive relationship. Transitivity means precisely what you stated: A = B and B = C implies A = C.

While it’s possible to use = to represent a non-transitive relationship this would be considered an abuse of notation. A ~ B or R(A, B) would be a better way to express the relation in this case.

Similar assumptions are made about operators like + and *. + is generally assumed to be commutative, whereas * can be used for noncommutative operations like matrix multiplication. E.g. A * B != B * A.

Equality in programming is another story entirely.

In many languages = is the assignment operator and == is the equality operator. Assignment is not transitive - it’s not even a relation.There are cases where the equality operator doesn’t define a transitive relation.

Answer: Jennifer didn't randomly assign participants to the control and experimental group.

Step-by-step explanation: In the scenario discussed above, Jennifer failed to perform a random assignment of the participants who took part in the survey, that is the experimental group, those who receive the treatment and the control group, those who don't. Random assignment is required in other to address the issue of bias in our experiment. She was supposed to perform a random assignment of the participants to the two groups instead of asking them to make a choice.
