Question

Althea was working on her car and found a piece left over when she put her carburetor back together. Her neighbor's car was the same make and model, so she knocked on his door to ask if she could take his carburetor apart one piece at a time to determine where she went wrong. This is an example of the ______ heuristic.

Answer 1

Answer:This is an example of the WORKING BACKWARD heuristic.

Step-by-step explanation:

Heuristic is a short way we use to reach a conclusion or make a decision in that particular moment usually based on what we already know.

The working backward heuristic is when we try to resolve a problem by imagining that we have already tackled it and in this way we can work our way back by imagining the steps that we have imaginatively used to resolve it so we visualise each resolution steps going backwards.
