Answer:
It's a function that associates a real number x with a positive real number using the flowing definition: If the number is not negative (so either positive or 0) the absolute value is x. If x is negative, the absolute value is -x.
This means that to find the absolute value of x you must first determine if x is negative or not, and if it is, multiply it by -1. If it isn't, leave it as it is.
Since the absolute value is a function (of a given number), you can't just plot that number in the number line but the function (so in this case absolute value must be taken first.
The absolute value of x is never negative, so given the absolute value of x we can't determinate if x was positive or negative (if x =/ 0) before the absolute value was taken.
Answer:
a) 83%
b) 0.892
Step-by-step explanation:
percentage that attends class on friday = 74%
percentage that pass because they attend class on friday = 88%
percentage that pass but did not go to school on friday = 20%
a) percentage of students expected to pass the course
= (74% x 88%) +(88% x 20%)
= 0.6512 + 0.176
= 0.8272
= 83%
b) If a person passes the course, what is the probability that he/she attended classes on Fridays
= 74% divided by 83%
= 0.892
Answer: The answer is F.
Step-by-step explanation: It’s F because the number would be multiplied equally because all of the number are multiplied by 2. The rest of them either have variables or variables with numbers in them, which looks kind of funky, so F is the answer. I hope you get it right :). Sorry, if I was late for the reply and if you already figured it out… :(.
Answer:
The sum of reciprocals is 2/3.
You don't need complex numbers to solve this, but if you try to find a and b you will need complex numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b = 2
a*b = 3
1/a + 1/b = x
(a*b)*(1/a + 1/b) = (a*b)x
b + a = (a*b)(x)
2 = 3x
x = 2/3
b = 2 - a
a*(2 - a) = 3
-a^2 + 2a = 3
-a^2 + 2a - 3 = 0
a^2 - 2a + 3 = 0
let's solve the quadratic equation
a^2 - 2a + 3 = a^2 - 2a + 1 + 2 = (a - 1)^2 + 2 = 0
(a - 1)^2 = -2
these options correspond to a and b from the original question.
Answer:
164+3.28
Step-by-step explanation:
(16.4)(10)+(16.4)(0.2)
164+3.28
167.28
