ng, Kathy selects one fruit to have with her breakfast.
Select the statement about Kathy's selection that is true.

Answer Choices

1. It is unlikely that Kathy selected a fruit that starts with 'p' because, 5/7<1/2 .


2. It is likely that Kathy selected a banana, because 1/7>1/2 .


3. It is impossible that Kathy selected an orange, because 0/7=0 .


4. It is more likely that Kathy selected an apple than a banana, because there are more apples.

Your answer would be 3. It is impossible Kathy selected an orange because
0/7 = 0.

This is the only true statement.

Kathy did not buy any oranges. She, therefore, has none of them (0 oranges out of the 7 total fruit, 0/7=0). You can't eat what you don't have. 

1. is false because 5/7 is greater than 1/2

2. is false because 1/7 is less than 1/2

      and...
 
4. is false because Kathy has the same number of apples and bananas, giving her equal opportunity to choose either fruit.

Hope this helps! :)

Q(x)= 1/2x - 3; q(x) =-4. Find the value of x
Lelu [443]

Answer:

q(x) =-5

Step-by-step explanation:

I am solving this using Function Notation.

We are given:

q(x)= \frac{1}{2}x - 3

While we are to find:

q(x) =-4

In Function Notation, replace all the "x" you see with the value you are given.

So, in this case,

q(x)= \frac{1}{2}x - 3\\\\=\frac{1}{2}x - 3

Would become

q(x)= \frac{1}{2}x - 3\\\\=\frac{1}{2}(-4) - 3

Now we can solve.

\frac{1}{2}(-4) - 3

Use PEMDAS; Parenthesis first;

\frac{1}{2}(-\frac{4}{1})

Cross divide: 1 cancels 1, -4 ÷ 2 = -2

Hence, we are left with

(-2) - 3

-5

Therefore, the value of x is -5

How do you solve it?
Elis [28]

At heart we're being asked for a line through two points,


(40^\circ \textrm{ C}, 355 \textrm { m/s}) \quad \textrm{and} \quad (49^\circ \textrm{ C}, 360 \textrm { m/s})


In general the line through (a,b) and (c,d) is


(y-b)(c-a)=(x-a)(d-b)


Check that you understand why both (a,b) and (c,d) are on this line.


Here our indepedent variable, instead of x, is T, temperature. Our dependent variable is v, velocity. Substituting,


(v - 355)(49 - 40) = (T - 40)(360 - 355)


9(v - 355) = 5(T - 40)


v-355 = \frac 5 9 T - \frac{200}{9}


v= \frac 5 9 T - \frac{200}{9} + 355


v= \frac 5 9 T + \frac{2995}{9}


That's our answer; let's check it.


When T=40, v = (5/9)40 + (2995/9) = 355 good


When T=49, v= (5/9)49 + (2995/9) = 360 good
