Plug -5 into both of them and divide:

\sf\dfrac{2x-20}{x-1}

\sf\dfrac{2(-5)-20}{-5-1}

Simplify:

\sf\dfrac{-10-20}{-6}

\sf\dfrac{-30}{-6}

\boxed{\sf 5}

Answer:

Option b is correct.

(\frac{f}{g})(-5) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functions:

f(x)=2x-20

g(x)=x-1

Solve: (\frac{f}{g})(-5)

(\frac{f}{g})(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}

Substitute the given function we have;

(\frac{f}{g})(x) = \frac{2x-20}{x-1}

Put x = -5 we have;

(\frac{f}{g})(-5) = \frac{2(-5)-20}{-5-1} =\frac{-10-20}{-6}=\frac{-30}{-6} = 5

therefore, the value of (\frac{f}{g})(-5) is 5.

Classify the following as discrete or continuous random variables.
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

A discrete variable is a variable that can only take some selected given values from a given set, like x ∈ {x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}

While a continuous variable can take any value in the range, like x ∈ {x₁, xₙ}.

1)  The weight of bags of apples, with 10 apples in each bag.

Here the weight depends on the number of apples in the bag, and we can have only whole numbers of apples in the bag, so this is clearly a discrete variable.

2) The number of times required for a modem to dial an internet provider before connecting.

Same as before, here we can have only a whole number of attempts, so this set is discrete.

3) Out of 10 times connecting to an internet provider, the average number of attempts necessary before connecting.

Here we will have an average of 10 integer numbers:

M = \frac{x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_{10}}{10}

so here we have a kinda dense set of possible values, so we can think of this as a continuous variable.

4)  A pair of dice is rolled, and the sum to appear on the dice is recorded.

Here the possible values are whole numbers again, so we can not have values like 3.5, so again, this is a discrete variable.

The ratio of boys to girls in the gym was 4 to 5. How many boys were in the gym if there were 125 girls in the gym?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

If there are 125 girls, and the ratio is boys to girls, then you can divide 125 by 5 to get the multiplication factor. This would be 25. Now you can multiply 25 by 4 to get how many boys were in the gym, which would be 100. To get back to your original ratio, you can divide 100/125 by 25 on top and bottom to get 4:5, or 4/5. :)
