Why do you think that in real-life examples, you always have a combination of fallacies (as opposed to just one)?

You are considering opening a book store near the campus, and you have begun an analysis of the situation. There are three possible sites under consideration. One is relatively small, the second is of medium size, while the third is large. If you open at site 1 and demand is good, you will generate a profit of $ 18,000. If demand is moderate, your profit is $12000 while with low demand, you will lose $ 6,000. If you open at site 2 and demand is high you will generate a profit of $ 28,000, if demand is moderate you will generate a profit of $1400 but you will lose $11,000 if the demand is low. If you open at site 3 and demand is high you will generate a profit of $ 42,000, if demand is moderate, you will generate a loss of $5000 and you will lose $18,000 if the demand is low You also have the option of not opening either. You believe that there is a 45% chance that the demand will be high, 25% chance that demand will be moderate. A market research study will cost $ 7,000. The…
Suppose we looked at the two variables X and Y , the number of shark attacks and number of iced lemonade sales, respectively. The variable Z denoting temperature would be an example of a (i) lurking variable (ii) confounding variable (iii) categorical variable (iv) dependent variable
14. M&M's As noted in an earlier chapter, Mars Inc. says that until very recently yellow candies made up 20% of its milk chocolate M&M's, red another 20%, and orange, blue, and green 10% each. The rest are brown. On his way home from work the day he was writing these exercises, one of the authors bought a bag of plain M&M's. He got 29 yellow ones, 23 red, 12 orange, 14 blue, 8 green, and 20 brown. Is this sample consistent with the company's stated proportions? Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion.
Mandrake Falls High School is losing a lot of money through its school laboratories. Accidents and misuse of equipment by students are taking their toll on laboratory supplies. In an attempt to remedy this, Mandrake is experimenting with a weekend course in laboratory techniques. For the time being, lack of resources allow only a portion of Mandrake's lab students to take the weekend course: of the 200 students enrolled in lab classes at Mandrake, only 77 have been able to take the weekend course. Mandrake is interested in evaluating the course's effectiveness in propagating safety in the laboratories. During regular lab classes, lab instructors are recording harmful lab incidents: accidents, misuse of lab equipment, etc. The high school is looking at the data and examining two variables: laboratory performance ("involved in no incident", "involved in exactly one incident", or "involved in 2+ incidents") and status regarding lab techniques course ("took the techniques course" or…

Question 3 My friend, Ahmad, is trying to determine which of two opportunities he should invest in (only one of them). His options are Bitcoin and S&P 500. If he invests in Bitcoin, he believes that he has a 10% chance of making 15% profit, a 25% chance of only 8% profit, 15% of losing 10% of his investment capital (-10%), and a 50% chance of no change in his investment capital (0%). IH Ahmad invests in S6PS00, he has a 70% chance for the 8% profit, a 25% chance for no change (0%), 3% chance for losing -10%, and 2% for a 15% profit. Ahmad is indifferent between the following lotteries. 15% o and also indifferent between 15% and If Ahmad wants to invest in what maximizes his expected return on investment, which investment is the best? Please note: x-0.79 and y-0.06. In the box below put the expected utility for the investment he should pick. Write your answer with three decimals.
Please explain the answer alongside the steps. Thank you!

EVE Online is a space-based multiplayer game, where players use spaceships to engage in combat, industry, exploration and other activities. Players can design their own ships, incorporating ship systems that affect a range of different critical variables. In combat situations, one such critical variable is ”capacitor recharge rate”: the capacitor stores energy used for activating both offensive and defensive ship systems. A spaceship that runs out of energy rarely survives for long. The capacitor recharge rate varies with how full the capacitor is currently. The recharge rate is determined by the differential equation dC/dt = 10 M/T [√(C/M) − C/M] where M is the capacitor’s overall capacity for holding energy (measured in gigajoules, GJ), and T is the time (measured in seconds, s) taken to recharge from zero to a standardised fraction of M. a) Using Rolle’s theorem, infer that there is a maximum value for dC/dt for some C ∈ (0, M). b) Treating M and T as constant, show that dC/dt is at…
