Answer:
The gambler's fallacy, also known as the Monte Carlo fallacy or the fallacy of the maturity of chances, is the erroneous belief that if a particular event occurs more frequently than normal during the past it is less likely to happen in the future (or vice versa), when it has otherwise been established that the probability of such events does not depend on what has happened in the past. Such events, having the quality of historical independence, are referred to as statistically independent. The fallacy is commonly associated with gambling, where it may be believed, for example, that the next dice roll is more than usually likely to be six because there have recently been fewer than the usual number of sixes.
The term "Monte Carlo fallacy" originates from the best known example of the phenomenon, which occurred in the Monte Carlo Casino in 1913.[1]
<span>Using processing software (Excel) or even a decent scientific calculator. You input the values and generate the best fit cubic equation.
For number 1, the equation is
y = 8x10</span>⁻⁵ x³ - 0.0097 x² + 0.374 x + 1.083
where x is the number of years since 1900
y is the pounds cheese consumed
For number 2, the equation is
y = -3x10⁻⁵ x³ + 0.0028 x² + 0.2155 x + 1.7736
For number 3
P(-1) = 18
You can try by plugging each ordered pair and seeing if the equation comes out true.
(5, 1)
2 * 5 - 1 = 9
That's correct so C is the correct answer.

Hello there! We are talking about 86 being part of a number, so we are looking for the whole. To find the number we are looking for, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
86/x = 45/100
86 is 45% of a number. We know the part, so now we are looking for the whole. 45% is part of 100%, so we put that part together. Cross multiply the digits. 100 * 86 is 8,600. 45 * x is 45x. That simplifies to 8,600 = 45x. Now, divide each side by 45 to isolate the x. 45x/45 cancels out. 8,600/45 is 191.1111111 or 191 1/9 in fraction form. There. x = 191 1/9 86 is 45% or 191 1/9
Note: Or, if you have to round to the nearest whole number, the answer is 191, or if you have to round to the nearest tenth, the answer is 191.1. It all depends on if the answer needs to be rounded or exact.
