Answer:

5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 pieces of fruit in the bowl,  tangerines and 5 clementines.

Assuming that they do not put the fruit back

P (tangerine) = number of tangerines/ total = 4/9

Then John keeps his and there are  8 pieces of fruit in the bowl,  

3 tangerines and 5 clementines.

P (Clementine) = number of clementines/ total = 5/8

P (tangerine, no replacement, Clementine) = P (tangerine) * P (Clementine)

                                                                        = 4/9 * 5/8 =5/18

Answer:

5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find each of their probabilities separately

2. John= # of tangerines/ total # of fruit

3. John = 4/9

4. Pam = # of clementines/ total # of fruit left

5. Pam= 5/8

6. Multiply the two together to get the probability that both pick the fruit they want

7. 4/9 times 5/8

8. 5/18

The function f(x) = One-sixth (two-fifths) Superscript x is reflected across the y-axis to create the function g(x). Which order
Gekata [30.6K]

The ordered pair (-3 , \frac{4}{375} ) is on g(x) ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the reflection across the axes

  • If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then its image is g(x) = - f(x)  (change the sign of y)
  • If the function f(x) reflected across the y-axis, then its image is g(x) = f(-x)  (change the sign of x)

∵ f(x)=\frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{x}

∵ f(x) is reflected across the y-axis to create the function g(x)

- Change the sign of x

∴ g(x)=\frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x}

To find the point that lies on g(x) substitute x in g(x) by the x-coordinate of the point if the answer equal to the y-coordinate of the point, then the point lies on it if not then the point does not lie on it

∵ The coordinates of the point are (-3 , \frac{4}{375} )

∴ x = -3 and y = \frac{4}{375}

- Substitute x by -3 in g(x)

∵ g(x)=\frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x}

∴ g(x)=\frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-(-3)}

∴ g(x)=\frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{3}

∵ (\frac{2}{5})^{3}=\frac{2^{3}}{5^{3}}=\frac{8}{125}

∴ g(x)=\frac{1}{6}(\frac{8}{125})

∴ g(x)=\frac{8}{750}

- Divide up and down by 2

∴ g(x)=\frac{4}{375}

∵ The value of g(x) equal to the y-coordinate of the point

∴ The point (-3 , \frac{4}{375} ) lies on g(x)

The ordered pair (-3 , \frac{4}{375} ) is on g(x)
