Answer:
Malcolm is showing evidence of gambler's fallacy.
This is the tendency to think previous results can affect future performance of an event that is fundamentally random.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each round of the roulette-style game is independent of each other. The probability that 8 will come up at any time remains the same, equal to the probability of each number from 1 to 10 coming up. That it has not come up in the last 15 minutes does not increase or decrease the probability that it would come up afterwards.
Answer is D
After dilation the image remain same but it is stretched or shrinked to the original size.
That means the ratio of the sides and the angles between the sides remain same .
Here we did dilation of ABCD which made it to EFGH.
Hence the ratio of the corresponding sides of the original rectangle ABCD should remain same even after dilation.
the corresponding sides are : AB and EF
BC and FG
CD and GH
DA and HE
* Let us find ratio of the sides AB and BC
given that AB= 10 and BC= 14
AB/BC= 10/14 = 5 /7 ( 10 and 14 both are multiple of 2 so we reduced them by a factor of 2 )
* the raio of the corresponding sides EF and FG should be same ( 5/7)
in the option D EF= 25 and FG= 35
so EF/FG= 25/35 = 5 /7 ( both are multiple of 5 so we reduced them by the factor of 5 )
Since ratio of the corresponding sides are coming out to be same for the EFGH given in option D it should be the dilation of the ABCD
Distribute 2/5 and 3/5 into the ():
2/5(a+b)+3/5(a+c)
2/5 a+ 2/5 b+3/5 a+ 3/5 c
combine the like terms:
2/5 a+3/5 a= 5/5 a --> 1a --> a
new simplified equation:
a+2/5 b+3/5 c
Answer:
61 bags of lettuce
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's create two equations representing the cost of bags of lettuce:
Val's Veggies: 250 + 1.50x = V
Sally's Salads: 100 + 4.00x = S
If you buy 60 bags of lettuce from either store, the answers will be equivalent:
If x = 60
250 + 1.50x = V
250 + 90 = V
340 = V
100 + 4.00x = S
100 + 240 = S
340 = S
Now that both equations are equivalent, all we need to do to tip the balance and make Val's Veggies cheaper is purchase one more bag of lettuce:
x = 61
250 + 1.50x = V
250 + 91.50 = V
341.50 = V
100 + 4.00x = S
100 + 244 = S
344 = S
Since V represents the price of a bag of lettuce at Val's Veggies and V is now less than S (Sally's Salads), Val's Veggies is now the cheaper option.
Therefore, 61 bags of lettuce must be purchased in order for Val's Veggies to be the cheaper option.
