Hey there,
Let's say that the first piece is x cm
1st = x
2nd = x + 25%
3rd = x - 25%
100% = 240 cm
1% = 240 / 100
      = 2.4cm
x + x + 25 + x - 25 = 100
3x + 25 - 25 = 100
3x = 100 - 25 + 25
3x = 100
3x = 240 cm
x = 240 / 3
   = 80 cm
1st piece = 80 cm
2nd piece = 80 + (25% x 80)
                = 80 + 20
                = 100cm
3rd piece = 80 cm - (25% x 80)
                = 80 cm - 20
                = 60cm

Hope this helps :))

The required domain of the inverse function is x ≤ 0. Hence option D is correct.

f(x) = -x^2

<h3>What are functions?</h3>

Functions is the relationship between sets of values. e g y=f(x), for every value of x there is its exists in set of y. x is independent variable while Y is dependent variable.

Inverse of function f(x) = -x^2
y = -x^2
x = √-y
Now,
Inverse function of f(x) is √-x
Its domain is define as less than or equal to zero.

Thus, the required domain of the inverse function is x ≤ 0.

I don’t know how to solve this problem
miss Akunina [59]

The draws are independent, so

P(\text{red then blue})=P(\text{red})\cdot P(\text{blue})

There is a total of 11 marbles in the bag, so

P(\text{red})=\dfrac3{11}

and

P(\text{blue})=\dfrac5{11}

So

P(\text{red then blue})=\dfrac{15}{121}
