When Larry tried to teach his dog Allegra to speak, he gave him 1 sausage - and he barked once. When he
gave him 2 sausages, he barked twice. Then he gave him 3 sausages, and he barked three times.
Larry predicted that Allegra would bark four times if he gave him 4 sausages.
What type of reasoning did Larry use to make his prediction?
A. Deductive reasoning
B. Inductive reasoning
C. Indirect reasoning
D. Circular reasoning

Answers

its c, sorry if i’m wrong

In case of : Allegra barking n = 4 times, when given 4 sausages - Inductive Logic is used.

Given : Allegra barks once & twice & thrice, when Larry gives him 1 & 2 sausages respectively.

So, later he assumes that he would bark 4 times, if given four sausages

Deductive Reasoning is when conclusion related to particular is drawn, based on general universal. Eg : All men are mortal, Ram is a man. Ram is mortal. Inductive Reasoning is when a generalised conclusion is drawn, based on specific case. Eg : Law of gravity based on apple falling.                     Allegra's case of barking n times for n sausages (1, 2,3 ...) is further generalised for other positive numbers & hence 4. Indirect Reasoning relates two events. If A is true leads to B is true, then B is false implies A has also been false. Circular Reasoning is a logical fallacy of beginning with an already assumed true statement.

Chloe has enough sand to fill a sandbox with an extra area of 36 square units she wants the outer edge of the sandbox to use as little as Material possible

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Length = Width = 6\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Area=36[/tex]

Required

The least possible material

Sandboxes usually, are rectangles or squares.

Using the above assumption, the area is calculated as:

[tex]Area= Length * Width[/tex]

[tex]Area= L* W[/tex]

[tex]L * W = 36[/tex]

Make L the subject

[tex]L = \frac{36}{W}[/tex]

The material of the outer edge is calculated by the perimeter.

[tex]Perimeter = 2 * (L +W)[/tex]

[tex]P = 2 * (L + W)[/tex]

Substitute [tex]L = \frac{36}{W}[/tex]

[tex]P = 2 * (\frac{36}{W} + W)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]P = \frac{72}{W} + 2W[/tex]

[tex]P = 72W^{-1} +2W[/tex]

To get the minimum material needed, we differentiate P

[tex]P' = -72W^{-2} + 2[/tex]

Set: [tex]P' = 0[/tex]

[tex]-72W^{-2} + 2 = 0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]72W^{-2} = 2[/tex]

Divide both sides by 72

[tex]W^{-2} = \frac{2}{72}[/tex]

[tex]W^{-2} = \frac{1}{36}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\frac{1}{W^2} = \frac{1}{36}[/tex]

Take positive square roots of both sides

[tex]\frac{1}{W} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]W = 6[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]L = \frac{36}{W}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]L =\frac{36}{6}[/tex]

[tex]L = 6[/tex]

Hence, the dimension with the littlest material as possible is:

[tex]Length = Width = 6\ units[/tex]

hello your question has a missing diagram attached below is the missing diagram

answer :  

Mark the point of intersection S of circles R and P, and construct line QS ( option 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

when constructing a tangent line from one point ( lets say Q as seen in the question ) to a circle P. The next step should be to mark a point of intersection between  the given circles and then construct a line through it

Answer:

Mark the point of intersection S of circles R and P, and construct line QS.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is correct because after you create circle R that intersects circle p, you're supposed to mark the intersection points.  If your in FLVS, it would be in lesson 7.04.  I also got this right on my test.  Good luck!

A shirt originally cost $41.10, but it is on sale for $36.99. What is the percentage decrease of the price of the shirt? If necessary, round to the nearest percent. A. 10% B. 90% C. 11% D. 8%

Answers

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to calculate the decrease

Original price= $41.10

New price= $36.99

= 41.10-36.99

= 4.11

4.11/41.10 × 100

= 0.1×100

= 10%

Hence the percentage decrease is 10%

its d cause there is actually 208 nickles and if u ad 8 more it gives u 216.

Answer: D.

Step-by-step explanation:

52x4=208

Since we know she has 4 times as many nickels as dimes(52), we just have to multiply 52x4 to get 208 nickels

208+8=216

We know that she has 8 more quarters than nickels(208) so we have to add 8 to 208 to get 216 quarters

Answers

Answer:

B. 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

Central angle = 3x + 10°

Inscribed angle = 2x - 17°

Now

Central angle = 2 * inscribed angle

( Central angle is double of the inscribed angle standing on same arc)

3x + 10° = 2 ( 2x - 17°)

3x + 10° = 4x - 34°

4x - 3x = 34 ° + 10°

x = 44°

If the square below is enlarged by a scale factor of 2, what will be the area of the new square? 184 square units 188 square units 192 square units 196 square units

Answers

Answer:

256square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are not given a diagram. Let us assume the side length of the given square is 8 units

If the  the square is enlarged by a scale factor of 2, the side length of the new square will be 2 * 8 = 16units

Since area of a square = L²

Hence the area of the new square =  16²

area of the new square =  256 square units

Hence the area of the new square is 256square units

Note that the side length of the original square was assumed. The values can change depending on the side length of the original square before enlargement
