Answer:

                \dfrac{1}{30}

Step-by-step explanation:

6 symbols and 4-symbol code so number of combinations wich doesn't contain the same symbol twice would be:

6•5•4•3 = 360

If code starts with a star followed by triangle that means only one posibility for first two symbols and code doesn't containing the same symbol twice means that left 4 symbols for next two.

So number of combinations of code starting with a star followed by triangle and doesn't containing the same symbol twice will be:

1•1•4•3 = 12

The probability that a randomly chosen code starts with a star followed by triangle and doesn't contain the same symbol twice:

\dfrac{1\cdot1\cdot4\cdot3}{6\cdot5\cdot4\cdot3}=\dfrac{1\cdot1}{6\cdot5}=\dfrac{1}{30}

Do lulus way. If you change the angles, you will not have a pentagon anymore. If you subtract, it wouldn’t be the same ratio:)

Consider the piecewise-defined function given by the graph. What are these values?
maksim [4K]

Answers:

f(-3) = -1

f(-1) = 2

f(3) = 5

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

Explanations:

Draw a vertical line through -3 on the x axis. Make sure this vertical line crosses the orange graph. Mark this point of intersection and then draw a horizontal line from this point to the y axis. You should find that it touches -1 on the y axis. Check out the attached image to see this process in action.

Those steps basically say that x = -3 leads to y = -1. Since y = f(x), this means f(-3) = -1

Through similar steps, you should find that f(-1) = 2 and f(3) = 5

Note that the open hole/circle does not count. So if you land on an open hole, just keep going until you hit a closed circle on the other piece of the graph.
