f(x) = -5x - 15

Let y = f(x)

y = -5x - 15

Switch the x and y places, and solve for y:

x = -5y - 15

-5y = x + 15

y = (x + 15)/-5

y = -(x/5) - 3

So the inverse of : f(x) = -5x - 15 is

-x/5 - 3

8. A box is filled with candies in different colors. We have 40 white candies, 24 green ones, 12

Darya [45]

Answer:

$P(Green\ or\ Red) = 0.30$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$White = 40$

$Green = 24$

$Red = 12$

$Yellow = 24$

$Blue = 20$

Required

$P(Green\ or\ Red)$

The total numbe of candy is:

$Total = 40 + 24 + 12 + 24 + 20$

$Total = 120$

This probability is calculated as:

$P(Green\ or\ Red) = P(Green) + P(Red)$

For each, we have:

$P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{Green}{Total} + \frac{Red}{Total}$

Take LCM

$P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{Green+Red}{Total}$

$P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{24+12}{120}$

$P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{36}{120}$

$P(Green\ or\ Red) = 0.30$

Brian’s school locker has a three-digit combination lock that can be set using the numbers 5 to 9 (including 5 and 9), without r

andreev551 [17]

The possible digits are: 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. Let's mark the case when the locker code begins with a prime number as A and the case when <span>the locker code is an odd number as B. We have 5 different digits in total, 2 of which are prime (5 and 7).

First propability:
</span> $P_A=\frac{2}{5}=40\%$
<span>
By knowing that digits don't repeat we can say that code is an odd number in case it ends with 5, 7 or 9 (three of five digits).

Second probability:
</span> $P_B=\frac{3}{5}=60\%$

How would you write this equation in terms of sin and cos as well as simplify it from there?

ziro4ka [17]

Try this option:
$(1+ \frac{cosx}{sinx})(1- \frac{cosx}{sinx})- \frac{1}{sin^2x}= \frac{sin^2x-cos^2x}{sin^2x}- \frac{1}{sin^2x}=$
$= \frac{sin^2x-cos^2x-sin^2x-cos^2x}{sin^2x}=- \frac{2cos^2x}{sin^2x}.$
