Identify the fallacies of relevance, weak induction, presumption, ambiguity, and illicit transference committed by the following arguments, giving a brief explanation for your answer. If no fallacy is committed, write "no fallacy." When I visited Dr. Ames about my cholesterol, she insisted that I go on a statin drug. She says everybody should be on a statin. And when I saw Dr. Collins for depression, he prescribed Prozac. And when the Prozac gave me nausea, he prescribed Zofran to stop the nausea. Doctors are all the same. They all take their orders from the pharmaceutical industry.
Answer:
Hasty generalization fallacy
Step-by-step explanation:
Fallacy can be said to be a reasoning which leads to the wrong interpretation of a statement or an argument. Although some people intentionally make fallacious statements just to score cheap points or to please the listening audience, but some make fallacious unknowingly, either due to carelessness or by being lackadaisical.
In this case the writer, without enough investigation and proof, comes to a very hasty conclusion that "all doctors are the same". This is termed a hasty conclusion because the writer only had dealings with just two docotors(Dr. Ames and Dr. Collins). So saying all doctors are the same just because of two instance is a rather rash statement.
Therefore, the fallacy commited by the writer here is a fallacy of hasty generalization.
Hasty generalization fallacy occurs when someone has a limited information on a population but makes a conclusion based on a larger population than he/she should.

Hello!
Answer:[tex]\boxed{ \bf The~fraction~is~5/100~or~1/20~when~reduced.}[/tex]
_____________________________________________Explanation:There are 100 centimetres in a metre. So, our denominator will be 100.
The numerator is 5 because that is the number of centimetres.
⇒ [tex]\frac{5}{100}[/tex]
This fraction can be reduced, since 5 goes into the denominator evenly.
5 ÷ 5 = 1
100 ÷ 5 = 20
So, our reduced fraction is [tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are congruent then corresponding angles are congruent, that is
∠ A = ∠ D , thus
3x - 10 = 2x + 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
x - 10 = 10 ( add 10 to both sides )
x = 20
One morning, Marcia works from 08 20 to 11 15.
Find how long slie works for.
Give your answer in hours and minutes.
Answer:
2:55. That's Two hours and 55 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation: From 8:20 to 11:20 would be three hours. But the actual time is five minutes less. There are 60 minutes in one hour. So change one hour to 60 minutes and subtract 5 minutes.
2:60 - :05 = 2:55
Answer:
2 hours and 55 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Take 11:15 and subtract 8:20
11 : 15
-8:20
------------
We need to borrow from the hours
11 becomes 10 and 1 hour = 60 minutes so add 60 to the 15
10 :75
-8:20
------------
2: 55
This is 2 hours and 55 minutes

The graph of the parent function f(x) = x3 is translated to form the graph of g(x) = (x − 4)3 − 7. The point (0, 0) on the graph of f(x) corresponds to which point on the graph of g(x)?
Answer:
The point (0, 0) in the graph of f(x) corresponds to the point (4, -7) in the graph of g(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that when we start with the function [tex]f(x)=x^3[/tex], and then transform it into the function: [tex]g(x)=(x-4)^3-7[/tex]
what we have done is to translate the graph of the function horizontally 4 units to the right (via subtracting 4 from the variable x), and 7 units vertically down (via subtracting 7 to the full functional expression).
Therefore, the point (0, 0) in the first function, will now appeared translated 4 units to the right (from x = 0 to x = 4) and 7 units down (from y = 0 to y = -7).
then the point (0, 0) after the translation becomes: (4, -7)

1 Dentro de seis años tendré el doble de la edad que tenía hace cuatro años. ¿Qué edad tendré dentro de nueve años?
Answer:
23 años
Step-by-step explanation:
Para resolver la situación, consideremos que x es la edad de la persona. Sabemos que dentro de seis años esta tendrá el doble de la edad que tenía hace cuatro años. La edad dentro de 6 años se puede expresar como x+6 y esto será igual al doble de la edad que tenía hace cuatro años, lo que se puede expresar como 2(x-4). De acuerdo a esto:
x+6=2(x-4)
x+6=2x-8
6+8=2x-x
x=14
Ahora que sabemos que la edad de la persona es 14 años, le sumamos 9 y esto da como resultado 23 y esta es la edad que la persona tendrá en 9 años.

Which expression has the same value as Negative 18 divided by (negative 9)? Negative 18 divided by 2 Negative 12 divided by (negative 3) Negative 10 divided by 5 Negative 8 divided by (negative 4) (for brainliest)
Answer: -8/-4
Step-by-step explanation:
When a negative integer gets divided my another negative integer, it results in a positive number. This means that we can eliminate all the negative symbols in this problem
18/9 = 2
Now all is left to determine which other expression is equivalent to 2
In the expression -10 / 5, since there is only one negative symbol, the postulate for negative number division states that two negative integers makes a positive number, and there is one negative integer and one positive whole number.
18/2 = 9 = incorrect
12/3 = 4 = incorrect
-10/5 = -2 = incorrect
8/4 = 2 = correct
So the expression -8/-4 is equivalent to the expression -18/-9

The altitude of a triangle is 1cm shorter than the base. If the area of the triangle is 15cm2, calculate the altitude.
Answer:
5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We khow that the altitude of this triangle is 1cm shorter than the base
Let H be our altitude and B our base and A the area of the triangleA= (B*H)/2 ⇒ 15=(B*H)/2 H is 1cm shorter than B ⇒ B=H+1H*(H+1)/2=15 ⇒ H*(H+1)=30⇒ H²+H=30⇒H²+H-30+0that's a quadratic equation . Let's calculate the dicriminant .
Let Δ be the dicriminant
a=1b=1c= -30 Δ=b²-4*a*c = 1²-4*1*(-30)=1+4*30=121≥0 Δ≥0⇔ that we have two solutions x and y x= (-1-[tex]\sqrt{121}[/tex])/2= (-1-11)/2= -6 y= (-1+[tex]\sqrt{121}[/tex])/2= 10/2 = 5We have a negative value and a positive one
The altitude is a distance so it can't be negative

Assume m<22=35. Find the measure of all of the other angles in the figure given line L and line P are parallel.
PLEASE HELP!!! ASAP!!!
(Picture included)
Answer:
m∠1 = 145°
m∠3 = 35°
m∠4 = 145°
m∠5 = 145°
m∠6 = 35°
m∠7 = 35°
m∠8 = 145°
Step-by-step explanation:
In the picture attached,
line 'm' and line 'l' are the parallel lines and another line intersects these lines is a transverse.
m∠2 = 35°
Since ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary angles,
m∠1 + m∠2 = 180°
m∠1 + 35° = 180°
m∠1 = 180° - 35°
m∠1 = 145°
∠1 ≅ ∠4 [Vertical angles]
m∠1 = m∠4 = 145°
∠2 ≅ ∠3 [Vertical angles]
m∠2 = m∠3 = 35°
∠3 ≅ ∠6 [Interior alternate angles]
m∠3 = m∠6 = 35°
Similarly, ∠4 ≅ ∠5 [Interior alternate angles]
m∠4 = m∠5 = 145°
∠6 ≅ ∠7 [Vertical angles]
m∠6 = m∠7 = 35°
Write the expression in standard form. -3 + yi = x + 6i
Answer:
The expression in standard form is -3 + 6i
Step-by-step explanation:
Writing complex equation in standard form we have;
-3 + yi = x + 6i
We transfer the real and imaginary parts to be on different sides of the equation as follows;
yi - 6i = x + 3
We factorize the imaginary part;
i(y-6) = x + 3
We note that the real portion on the left hand side of the equation is zero, therefore, we have;
i(y-6) + 0= x + 3
x + 3 = 0
Therefore, x = -3
Substituting the value of x in the first equation, we have;
-3 + yi = -3 + 6i
Comparing gives;
y = 6
The expression in standard form is -3 + 6i.

PLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAASSSSSSSE HEEEEEEEEELP As soon as a new car that costs $25,000 is driven off the lot, it begins to depreciate at a rate of 24.9% annually. About how much money is the car worth after the second year?
Answer:
The value of the car after two years is $14,100.025
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the value of a car after its second year, given the depreciation percentage.
To get the value of the car year after year at the fixed percentage level, what we do is to set up an exponential equation;
V = I(1-r)^t
where V is the present value
I is the initial value = $25,000
r is the rate = 24.9% = 24.9/100 = 0.249
t is the number of years = 2 in this case
So we substitute these values in the depreciation case and have;
V = 25000(1-0.249)^2
V = 25000(0.751)^2
V = $14,100.025
