Given that 3/5 know fortran
1/6 know cobol
1/10 know both fotran and cobol
the fraction of programmers who knows at least one of the two programs will be:
3/5+1/6+1/10
=13/15
the fraction of programmers who don't know either of the two will be:
1-13/15
=2/15
thus the answer is 2/15

Which of the following is the equation of a line parallel to the line y = 3x + 2,
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x + 2 is in this form with slope m = 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (10, 1) into the partial equation

1 = 30 + c ⇒ c = 1 - 30 = - 29

y = 3x - 29 ← in slope- intercept form

Subtract y from both sides

0 = 3x - y - 29 ( add 29 to both sides )

29 = 3x - y, thus

3x - y = 29 ← in standard form → B

Answer:

The inverse of the function is ±sqrt( (x+4)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the function equal to y

y = 2x^2 -4

Exchange x and y

x = 2y^2 -4

Solve for y

Add 4 to each side

x+4 = 2y^2 -4+4

x+4 = 2y^2

Divide each side by 2

(x+4)/2 = 2/2y^2

(x+4)/2 = y^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt( (x+4)/2 )= sqrt(y^2)

±sqrt( (x+4)/2 )= y

The inverse of the function is ±sqrt( (x+4)/2
