Four mathematicians have the following conversation:
Alice: I am insane.
Bob: I am pure.
Charlie: I am applied.
Dorothy: I am sane.
Alice: Charlie is pure.
Bob: Dorothy is insane.
Charlie: Bob is applied.
Dorothy: Charlie is sane.
You are also given that:
● Pure mathematicians tell the truth about their beliefs.
● Applied mathematicians lie about their beliefs.
● Sane mathematicians beliefs are correct.
● Insane mathematicians beliefs are incorrect.
Describe the four mathematicians.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: plz mark as brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:The table below shows the net effect of a person’s mental state and occupation on his or her truth telling.

Suppose that Dorothy is telling the truth. Then she is sane (and hence a pure mathematician) and Charlie is sane. Bob says that Charlie is insane, so Bob is not telling the truth. Since he says he’s pure, he’s actually applied and hence Charlie is telling the truth. But then he’s applied and sane applied mathematicians do not tell the truth. This is a contradiction.

Therefore, Dorothy is not telling the truth. Thus, both Charlie and Dorothy are insane (hence Dorothy is pure). Consequently, Bob is telling the truth. Therefore Bob is pure (and sane, since he is a truth teller). Since Charlie says that Bob is applied, he is not telling the truth. Since we know that he is insane, he must be pure.

Since Alice says that Charlie is pure, she is telling the truth. Therefore she is insane and consequently applied.

In summary:

Alice is an insane applied mathematician.

Bob is a sane pure mathematician.

Charlie is an insane pure mathematician.

Dorothy is an insane pure mathematician.

Answer 2

Alice: Alice claims to be insane. If she is telling the truth, then her belief is incorrect, and she is, in fact, sane.

What is a mathematician?

Mathematicians and statisticians solve problems in industry, academia, and government by using formulas and data.

Alice: Alice claims that she is insane. If she's telling the truth, her belief is incorrect, and she's perfectly normal. Alice is thus either pure or applied.

Bob: Bob declares himself to be pure. Bob's belief is correct, and he is indeed pure, because pure mathematicians tell the truth.

Charlie claims to be applied, but Alice claims Charlie is pure. Alice's claim about Charlie is true because applied mathematicians lie, and Charlie is actually pure.

Dorothy: Dorothy asserts that she is sane. Dorothy's belief is correct, and she is indeed sane, because the beliefs of sane mathematicians are correct.

Therefore, the four mathematicians are Alice (either pure or applied), Bob (pure), Charlie (pure), and Dorothy (sane).

A drink is made from 1.5 litres of orange juice and 7.5 litres of lemonade. What fraction of the drink is orange juice? (simplest form)

Answers

Answer: 1/6

==================================================

Explanation:

1.5 liters of orange juice

7.5 liters of lemonade

1.5+7.5 = 9 liters total

1.5/9 = 15/90 is the fractional amount of orange juice. Note how I multiplied top and bottom of the first fraction by 10 to get 15/90. This is the same as moving the decimal point 1 spot to the right for each value.

----------

From here you divide both parts by the GCF 15 to reduce

15/15 = 1

90/15 = 6

Meaning 15/90 = 1/6

So 1/6 of the drink is orange juice.

It is 1/6 !! :) hope this helps

because the maximum point for Fuction 1 is at (4,1) becuase that the highest point/vertex it goes.

You can use a graph to identify the vertex or you can find the minimum or maximum value algebraically by using the formula x = -b / 2a. This formula will give you the x-coordinate of the vertex. Simply replace the x in your original equation with the value of the x-coordinate and then solve for y.

the remainder when the polynomial f(x) =2x^3 + px^2 + qx 18 is divided by (x-1) is 10. When it is divided by x+1 the remainder is 12. Find the values of the consonants p and q

Answers

Answer:

p = 29 and q = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using long division, the remainder when we divide by x − 1 is p+q−16.  The remainder when we divide by x + 1 is p−q−20.

Therefore:

p + q − 16 = 10

p − q − 20 = 12

Add the equations together:

2p − 36 = 22

2p = 58

p = 29

Plug into either equation to find q:

q = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the​ half-life of​ carbon-14 is 5600 years and if a piece of charcoal made from the wood of a tree shows only 72% of the​ carbon-14 expected in living​ matter.

we know

[tex]y=a(b)^{t/h}[/tex]

where y= final amount

a= initial amount

b= growth/decay

t= time elapsed

h= half time

plugging the values we get

taking log on both side

log 0.72 = t/5600 log(1/2)

solving we get t =2654.01465 year

The cost of a pack of candle and a dozen of eggs is $12.5 and $11.3 respectively. If Ridwan intends to buy 2 dozen eggs and half pack of a candle, what should be Ridwan's budget.

Next; is to solve the above problem

We continue by listing out the given parameters

A pack of candle = $12.5

A dozen of egg = $11.3

Required

What is the cost of 2 dozen egg and half pack of candle?

We start by calculating the cost of 2 dozen egg

[tex]Cost = 2 * 1\ dozen\ egg[/tex]

[tex]Cost = 2 * \$11.3[/tex]

[tex]Cost = \$22.6[/tex]

Then, we calculate the cost of half pack of Candle

[tex]Cost = \frac{1}{2} * 1\ pack\ of\ candle[/tex]

[tex]Cost = \frac{1}{2} * \$12.5[/tex]

[tex]Cost = \$6.25[/tex]

Lastly, we add up the two costs;

[tex]Total = \$22.6 + \$6.25[/tex]

[tex]Total = \$28.85[/tex]
