Answer:

<h3> (f/g)(x) = 4x³ - 8x - 5</h3>

<h3>(f/g)(2) = 11</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x⁴ + 4x³ - 8x² - 13x - 5

g(x) = x + 1

To find (f/g)(2) first find (f/g)(x)

To find (f/g)(x) factorize f(x) first

That's

f(x) = 4x⁴ + 4x³ - 8x² - 13x - 5

f(x) = ( x + 1)( 4x³ - 8x - 5)

So we have

(f/g)(x) =  \frac{( x + 1)( 4x³ - 8x - 5)}{x + 1}

Simplify

We have

<h3> (f/g)(x) = 4x³ - 8x - 5</h3>

To find (f/g)(2) substitute 2 into (f/g)(x)

That's

(f/g)(2) = 4(2)³ - 8(2) - 5

= 4(8) - 16 - 5

= 32 - 16 - 5

= 11

<h3>(f/g)(2) = 11</h3>

Hope this helps you

On a scale drawing with a scale of 1 cm: 3 m , the height of a tree is 5 cm. How tall is the actual tree?
Neko [114]
In 3 metres there are 300 centimetres. Each centimetre on the scale is 300 centimeters, or a ratio of 1:300. The tree is 5 centimetres on the scale. Each centimeter on the scale is 300 centimetres, therefore 5 centimetres on the scale is 1500 centimetres. 1500 centimetres is equal to 15 metres.

At a certain charity fundraiser, some guests will be randomly selected to receive a gift. The probability of receiving a gift is
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

a) Your answer for part a (I got 3/28) is wrong.

Odds are always expressed as ratios after calculating. Therefore, the odds in favour of receiving a gift = 3:22

b) Your answer in part b(I got 7/9) is correct.

The probability of the box having a toy is 7/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above has to do with odds and probability.

It is important to note that odds are expressed in the form of ratios while probabilities are expressed as fractions.

a) At a certain charity fundraiser, some guests will be randomly selected to receive a gift. The probability of receiving a gift is 3/25. Find the odds in favor of receiving a gift.(I got 3/28)

The formula for calculating odds from probability is Odds = Probability / (1 - Probability).

Probability = 3/25

Odds =(3/25)/(1 - 3/25)

= (3/25)/22/25

= 3/25 ÷ 22/25

= 3/25 × 25/22

= 3/22

Note that odds are always expressed as ratios.

Therefore, the odds in favour of receiving a gift = 3:22

Your answer for part a (I got 3/28) is wrong.

The correct answer is 3:22

b) A child has a box of candies which might have a toy inside. The odds against the box having a toy are 7/2. What is the probability of the box having a toy? I got 7/9.

The formula for calculating probability from odds is P = Odds / (Odds + 1).

Odds = 7/2 or 7:2

We convert the odds to fraction when calculating

Probability = Odds / (Odds + 1).

Probability = (7/2)/ (7/2 + 1)

Probability = (7/2)/9/2

Probability = 7/2 ÷ 9/2

= 7/2 × 2/9

= 7/9

Probability is always expressed as a fraction.

Therefore, the probability of the box having a toy is 7/9.

Your answer in part b(I got 7/9) is correct.
