Answer: Our required probability is 0.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of window seats = 12

Number of aisle seats = 8

Total number of seats = 12+8 = 20

According to question, the next person to buy a ticket will be assigned to one of those seats.

Probability that the next person will be assigned to an aisle seat is given by

\dfrac{\text{Number of aisle seats}}{\text{Total number of seats}}\\\\=\dfrac{8}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\=0.4

Hence, our required probability is 0.4.

Which function has a simplified base of 4RootIndex 3 StartRoot 4 EndRoot? f(x) = 2(RootIndex 3 StartRoot 16 EndRoot) Superscript
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

  f(x)=4\sqrt[3]{16}^{2x}

Step-by-step explanation:

We believe you're wanting to find a function with an equivalent base of ...

  4\sqrt[3]{4}\approx 6.3496

The functions you're looking at seem to be ...

  f(x)=2\sqrt[3]{16}^x\approx 2\cdot2.5198^x\\\\f(x)=2\sqrt[3]{64}^x=2\cdot 4^x\\\\f(x)=4\sqrt[3]{16}^{2x}\approx 4\cdot 6.3496^x\ \leftarrow\text{ this one}\\\\f(x)=4\sqrt[3]{64}^{2x}=4\cdot 16^x

The third choice seems to be the one you're looking for.

If a graph of y=-4x+2 we’re changed to a graph of y= - 4x+5, how would the y- intercept change ?
viktelen [127]

The y-intercept would elevate up the y-axis by 3

This is because the y-intercept in y= -4x+2 is 2 and when you change it to y= -4x+5 you are moving the intercept to a y of 5.
