Nutz and Boltz, Inc., employs one hundred people; eighty are lawyers and twenty are engineers. Albert, a lawyer at the company, is quiet, likes puzzles, and carries a calculator. Most people, when asked whether Albert is a lawyer or an engineer, will guess that he is an engineer. These people are using __________ to make this faulty guess. A correct guess would have been made if they had used __________.
Answer:
These people are using the representativeness heuristic to make this faulty guess. A correct guess would have been made if they had used base rate information.
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 the representativeness heuristic to make this faulty guess. A correct guess would have been made if they had used base rate information.

Surface area of a cube please HELP HELP HELP
Answer:
The surface area of the cube is 294 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the surface area of a cube is:
(a^2) 6
Explanation behind formula:
a represents the side length. a^2 is the area of one face of the cube. Multiply that by 6 because there are 6 faces on a cube.
(Surface area- the area of each face of a figure)
Use formula with the given:
(7^2) 6 = 294
Surface area is measured in square meters.
(meters in this situation)

(FIRST CORRECT FOR BRAINIEST) Given that triangle GHJ = triangle XYZ, what is m
Answer:
∠ J = 71°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the triangles are congruent then corresponding angles are congruent, so
∠ H = ∠ Y = 38°
Since GH = JH then Δ GHJ is isosceles and the 2 base angles are congruent

My pigg y bank has only pennies and nicklels in it , and 2/7 of the coins are nickel If i remove 84 pennies then 1/3 of the remening are pennies 1} suppose there are initially p pennies and n nickels in the pigy bank write an equation using the fact that 2/7 of the coins initially in the
Answer:
There are 105 pennies in the piggy bank.
There are 42 nickels in the piggy bank.
Step-by-step explanation:
there are:
p pennies in the piggy bank
n nickels in the piggy bank
Then we can define T, the total number of coins, as:
T = p + n
We know that 2/7 of the total number of coins are nickels.
This can be written as:
n = (2/7)*T = (2/7)*(n + p)
And if we remove 84 pennies, 1/3 of the remaining coins are pennies.
This can be written as:
p - 84 = (1/3)*(n + p - 84)
Then we have a system of two equations:
n = (2/7)*(n + p)
p - 84 = (1/3)*(n + p - 84)
Let's solve the system, to do it, we first need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations.
We can isolate n in the first one, to get:
n = (2/7)*(n + p) = (2/7)*n + (2/7)*p
n - (2/7)*n = (2/7)*p
n*(5/7) = (2/7)*p
n = (7/5)*(2/7)*p = (2/5)*p
n = (2/5)*p
Now we can replace this in the other equation:
p - 84 = (1/3)*(n + p - 84)
p - 84 = (1/3)*( (2/5)*p + p - 84)
Let's solve this for p
p - 84 = (1/3)*( (7/5)*p - 84)
3*(p - 84) = (7/5)*p - 84
3p - 252 = (7/5)*p - 84
3*p - (7/5)*p = 252 - 84
(15/5)*p - (7/5)*p = 168
(8/5)*p = 168
p = (5/8)*168 = 105
There are 105 pennies in the piggy bank.
And we know that:
n = (2/5)*p = (2/5)*105 = 42
There are 42 nickels in the piggy bank.

If f(1) = 2 and f(n) = f(n − 1)^2 + 3 then find the value of f(3).
===========================================================
Explanation:
Let's use the recursive rule to find f(2)
We'll plug n = 2 into the second equation to find that...
f(n) = ( f(n-1) )^2 + 3
f(2) = ( f(2-1) )^2 + 3
f(2) = ( f(1) )^2 + 3
f(2) = ( 2 )^2 + 3
f(2) = 4 + 3
f(2) = 7
Notice in the jump from lines 3 to 4, we go from f(1) to 2. So f(2) is dependent on what f(1) is.
In other words, the second term is dependent on the first term.
--------------------
Likewise, f(3) is dependent on f(2)
Plug n = 3 into the recursive definition to find the following
f(n) = ( f(n-1) )^2 + 3
f(3) = ( f(3-1) )^2 + 3
f(3) = ( f(2) )^2 + 3
f(3) = ( 7 )^2 + 3
f(3) = 49 + 3
f(3) = 52
The third term of this recursive sequence is 52.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
The parent function, f(x) = |x|, has no transformations applied to it.
When the number is with the x, it translates the graph horizontally. <->
When the number is outside of the absolute box, it translates the graph vertically. ^ V
When the number is multiply the absolute box on the outside with the x inside, it scales the graph.
So, first lets apply the translations of horizontal and vertical shift.
The graph translated 1 units downwards.
The graph translates 2 units to the right.
g(x) = |x - 2| - 1
We subtract the 2 because that makes it go right, while if we added it would go left.
Now for the scale.
The lines have a slope of [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex], so that is what we are multiplying.
g(x) = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]|x - 2| - 1
^That is your transformed function.

y = 4x + 5 ; y = x - 4
Answer:
(- 3, - 7 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 4x + 5 → (1)
y = x - 4 → (2)
Substitute y = 4x + 5 into (2)
4x + 5 = x - 4 ( subtract x from both sides )
3x + 5 = - 4 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
3x = - 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = - 3
Substitute x = - 3 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y
Substituting into (2)
y = x - 4 = - 3 - 4 = - 7
solution is (- 3, - 7 )

Using divisibility tests, check whether the number 240720 is divisible by
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 11. (Give reason)
Answer:
Let's see each case.
a) 2
We know that a number is divisible by two if it ends in {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}
In our case, we have 240,720
We can see that it ends with a zero, so it is divisible by 2.
b) 3
A number is divisible by 3 only if the sum of its digits is a multiple of 3.
For our number, the sum of the digits gives:
2 + 4 + 0 + 7 + 2 + 0 = 2 + 4 + 7 + 2 = 6 + 9 = 15
15 is a multiple of 3, then 15 is divisible by 3.
then 240,720 is divisible by 3.
c) 4
A number is divisible by 4 if the last two digits form a number that is divisible by 4.
In this case, the last two digits are 2 and 0, so they form the number 20
and we know that 20 = 4*5 is a multiple of 4.
then 20 is divisible by 40
then 240,720 is divisible by 4
d) 5
A number is divisible by 5 if it ends in 0 or 5.
Our number ends in a 0, so it is divisible by 5.
e) 6
A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 and 3.
We already know that our number is divisible by 2 and 3, so we can conclude that it is also divisible by 6.
f) 8
A number is divisible by 8 if, in the case where the hundreds digit is odd, the number obtained from the last two digits plus 4 must be divisible by 8.
in the case where the hundreds digit is even, the number formed by the last two digits must be divisible by 8.
In our case the hundreds digit is 7, so it is odd, so we will use the first criteria.
The last two digits form the number 20
if we add 4, we get:
20 + 4 = 24
And 24 is a multiple if 8: 8*3 = 24
Then 24 is divisible by 8, then 240,720 is divisible by 8.
g) 9
Similar for the case of the 3, a number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.
We know that the sum of the digits of our number is 15, which is not divisible by 9, then our number is not divisible by 9
h) 10
A number is divisible by 10 if the last digit is a zero.
In this case the last digit is a zero, so 240,720 is divisible by 10.
i) 11
A number is divisible by 11 if:
starting from the left, you need to add and subtract each subsequent digit, if this is divisible from 11, then the original number is divisible by 11.
Then for 240,720 we have:
2 - 4 + 0 - 7 + 2 - 0 = -2 - 5 = -7
-7 is not divisible by 11, so our number is not divisible by 11

a) = 6 cm, 0 - 70°
b) r=14 cm, 0 = 104°
c) r=5 cm, 0 = 80
8 cm
1.
3. Find and hence the shaded area when:
a) AB = 10 cm, r= 10 cm
b) AB=8 cm, r = 5 cm
4. How far is a chord of length 8 cm from the centre of a circle of radius 5 cm?
5. How far is a chord of length 9 cm from the centre of a circle of radius 6 cm?
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer Fig 1 as attached
1a. angle a = angle b = 25°
AM = 8 x cos 35° = 6.553
so AB = AM x 2 = 13.1
1b. Area of sector OAB / Area of the circle
= 130 / 360
Area of sector OAB = 8x8xpi x 130/360
= 23pi
1c. Area OAB = 2 X ( AM x OM) /2 = AM x OM
OM = AM x tan (angle a) = 13.1 x tan 25°
= 6.109
so Area OAB = 6.553 x 6.109 = 40.03
1d. Area of the minor segment
= Area of sector OAB - Area of triangle OAB
= 23pi - 40.03
= 32.23
