(2x+1)=Jeremy´s age
(2x+3)=Sam´s age.
we suggest this equation:
(2x+1)(2x+3)=783
4x²+6x+2x+3=783
4x²+8x-780=0
x²+2x-195=0

We solve this quadratic equation:
x=[-2⁺₋√(4-4*1*(-195))]/2=(-2⁺₋28)/2

x₁=(-2-28)/2=-15 this solution is not valid.
x₂=(-2+28)/2=13

Jeremy´s age=2x+1=2*13+1=27
Sam´s age=2x+3=2*13+3=29

For what value of x is the function g(x)=x/1-x NOT defined?
VMariaS [17]

The function is definately defined at x=0 but not x=1.

But its just one part of the coordinate (x,y).

If the value of y or f(x) is considered, you'll see that it is never possible to attain f(x)=0. In other terms (x,y)= (0,0) is not a defined point in the graph of the function because the graph doesnt pass through that point.

Now I hope you understood what I meant!

Conclusion- The above function is not defined at all points in the space having the abscissa or x=1 in the coordinate and also at ordinate or y=0 in the coordinate.nation:

Events A and B have probabilities such that P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.25, P(M ∪ N) = 0.425, and P(M ∩ N) = 0.075. Are events A and ev
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

(C)Yes, because P(M) ∙ P(N) = P(M ∩ N)

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events A and B are independent if P(A)P(B)=P(A ∩ B)

Given events A and B such that:

P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.25, P(A ∪ B) = 0.425, and P(A ∩ B) = 0.075

  • P(A)P(B)=0.3 X 0.25 =0.075
  • P(A ∩ B) = 0.075

Since the two expression above gives the same answer, they are independent.

<u>The correct option is C.</u>
