Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From Bayes' theorem is stated mathematically as the following equation:[2]

{\displaystyle P(A\mid B)={\frac {P(B\mid A)\,P(A)}{P(B)}},}

where A and B are events and P(B) ≠ 0.

P(A) and P(B) are the probabilities of observing A and B without regard to each other.

P(A | B), a conditional probability, is the probability of observing event A given that B is true.

P(B | A) is the probability of observing event B given that A is true.

At this point, go through the attached file before you continue with part B.

Part B)

P(silver) = P(silver from SS)+P(silver from GS)

note P(SS)=P(GG)=P(GS) = 1/3

P(silver from SS) = 1

P(silver from GS) = 1/2

hence

P(Silver from SS) = 1/3

P(Silver from GS) = 1/3 *1/2

P(Silver) = 1/3*1+1/3*1/2

required probability = P(Silver from SS)/P(Silver) = 2/3

Find f(x) and g(x) so that the function can be described as y = f(g(x)).<br><br> y = 4/x^2+9
dlinn [17]

I'm assuming all of (x^2+9) is in the denominator. If that assumption is correct, then,

One possible answer is f(x) = \frac{4}{x},  \ \ g(x) = x^2+9

Another possible answer is f(x) = \frac{4}{x+9}, \ \ g(x) = x^2

There are many ways to do this. The idea is that when we have f( g(x) ), we basically replace every x in f(x) with g(x)

So in the first example above, we would have

f(x) = \frac{4}{x}\\\\f( g(x) ) = \frac{4}{g(x)}\\\\f( g(x) ) = \frac{4}{x^2+9}

In that third step, g(x) was replaced with x^2+9 since g(x) = x^2+9.

Similar steps will happen with the second example as well (when g(x) = x^2)

A point (3, –2) is reflected across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis. Find the image of the point after the
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

D. (-3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The original point is (3, -2)

The rule for reflecting across the x-axis is (x, y) -> (x, -y)

(3, -2) -> (3, 2)

The rule for reflecting across the y-axis is (x, y) -> (-x, y)

(3, 2) -> (-3, 2)
