Answer:

-1 $\frac{7}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-8y=15

4x-8y-4x=15-4x

-8y=15-4x

-8y/-8=15-4x/-8

y=-1 7/8+1/2x

slope is -1 7/8

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Given : f(x) = 3x + 1

We get f(2) by substituting x = 2 in the given Function

⇒ f(2) = 3(2) + 1

⇒ f(2) = 6 + 1 = 7

At what value of x does the graph of the following function f(x) have a vertical asymptote? f(x)=1/x+3

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator of f(x) cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined.

Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be and if the numerator is non zero for this value then it is a vertical asymptote.

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3 ← equation of vertical asymptote

Answer:

The change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysing the question one statement at a time.

Before the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space is:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3\}$

And the probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{6}$

$P(1) = \frac{1}{3}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(2) = \frac{1}{2}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{6}$

P(Odd Number) is then calculated as:

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{6}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$

After the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space becomes:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3,3\}$

The probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{7}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{7}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2}{7} + \frac{1}{7}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$

Comparing P(Odd Number) before and after

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$ --- Before

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$ --- After

We can conclude that the change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (8, −8) and a directrix of y = −6?

yarga [219]

The vertex is exactly half way between directrix and focus. In this case the vertex is (8,-7)
(h,k)

P is the distance between the vertex and either the directrix or focus, in this case p = 1.

a = 1/(4p) or 1/(4*1) or 1/4

write the equation in vertex form

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1/4(x-8)^2 -7

THERE ARE 3 BAGS OF APPLES WEIGHING A TOTAL OF 22 1/2 POUNDS. TWO OF THE BAGS WEIGH 6 3/8 POUNDS AND 3 1/4 POUNDS. HOW MUCH DOES

Mkey [24]

I wasn't going to click on this one, but the all-caps enthralled me and hypnotized me.

first off, let's change all the mixed fractions to "improper" and proceed from there, keep in mind that if we subtract the two bags' weight from the total, what's leftover is the 3rd bag's weight.

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{22\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{22\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{45}{2}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{6\frac{3}{8}}\implies \cfrac{6\cdot 8+3}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{51}{8}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{1}{4}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{13}{4}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{sum of the two bags}}{\cfrac{51}{8}+\cfrac{13}{4}}\impliedby \textit{our LCD is 8}\implies \cfrac{(1)51+(2)13}{8}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{51+26}{8}\implies \cfrac{77}{8}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{total}{\cfrac{45}{2}}~-~\stackrel{two~bags}{\cfrac{77}{8}}\impliedby \textit{our LCD is again 8}\implies \cfrac{(4)45-(1)77}{8}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{180~~-~~77}{8}\implies \cfrac{103}{8}\implies \stackrel{third~bag}{12\frac{7}{8}}$
