If we want to compute 
, we have to substitute every occurrence of 
with 
in the definition of the function:
Similarly, computing 
means to substitute the input with 2:
So, we have
And finally
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Rebecka already chose a retriever, so the puppies left for Aaron to pick are:
2 poodles
2 terriers
1 retriever
Total: 4
Number of retrievers left after Rebecka's pick: 1
p(Aaron picks retriever) = 1/4
Approximately 7.4 inches. You can use the Pythagorean theorem to get you diagonal or hypotenuse.
Answer: n = 75; p = 30
Explanation: (a) 5p + 4n = 450 where p is for pen and n is for notebook.
(b) 10p + 3n = 525
We can use the elimination method to solve these two equations.
1. Multiply the first equation by 2 so that 10p will cancel out:
2(5p + 4n = 450)
- 10p + 3p = 525
10p + 8n = 900
- 10 p + 3n = 525
5n = 375
2. Divide by 5 to get n alone: n = 75
3. Plug 75 into the first equation: 5p + 4(75) = 450
5p + 300 = 450
4. Subtract 300 from 450: 5p = 150
5. Divide by 5 to get p alone: p = 30
We can test if this is correct by plugging our answers into the second equation:
10(30) + 3(75) = 525
300 + 225 = 525
525 = 525
This is a true statement, which means that our answers are correct.
