Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that three pairs of gloves- a red pair, a blue pair, and a green pair-are in a drawer.  The gloves are removed at random without returning any to the drawer.

We have to find the minimum number that must be removed in order to guarantee having a matched pair of gloves

No of different colours = 3 (red, blue, green)

Hence no of gloves that must be removed = 3+1

If 4 gloves are removed, only 3 can be of different colours 1 will have same colour as any one of the three.

So a pair of same colour would be obtained

Answer is 4

The classroom outside bag had 5 frisbees in it. If 25% of the outside toys are frisbees, then how many total toys are in the bag
malfutka [58]
So 25%=1/4 so technically you just do 5 times 4 since you need 4 more to have a full 4/4 or full 100% so 5 times 4 is 20 so there are 20 totals toys in the bag

Answer:

2x ( x + 5 ) ( x − 2 y )

Step-by-step explanation:

1) factor out 2x from the equation

2) factor out x from the equation

3) factor out -2y from the equation

4) factor out x + 5 from the equation

Which is an equation of the line with a slope of 2/3 passing through the point (4,-1)?
Bond [772]

Answer:

y=2/3x-11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the y intercept, you can input your values into the equation:

b=y1−m⋅x1

When you do that, you get:

b=−1−(2/3)⋅(4)=−11/3

When you convert that equation into y=mx+b form, you get:

y=2/3x-11/3

I don’t understand at all
Savatey [412]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function, f(x) = |x|, has no transformations applied to it.

When the number is with the x, it translates the graph horizontally. <->

When the number is outside of the absolute box, it translates the graph vertically. ^ V

When the number is multiply the absolute box on the outside with the x inside, it scales the graph.

So, first lets apply the translations of horizontal and vertical shift.

The graph translated 1 units downwards.

The graph translates 2 units to the right.

g(x) = |x - 2| - 1

We subtract the 2 because that makes it go right, while if we added it would go left.

Now for the scale.

The lines have a slope of \frac{1}{4}, so that is what we are multiplying.

<u> g(x) = </u>\frac{1}{4}<u>|x - 2| - 1</u>

<u></u>

<u>^That is your transformed function.</u>
