Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The product will only be of the required form if the two chosen factors are of the form (x +by) and (x -by).
For the factor (x+y), there is also a factor (x-y) on the list. For the factor (x+5y), there is no factor (x-5y) available.
So, of the (4·3)/2 = 6 possible ways to choose two expressions from the four given expressions, only one pair of the 6 will have a product of the required form.
The probability is 1/6.
The last one is the right answer
The answer is D {9,24,30}

x = - 1/3
y = 3x - 2
Problem solve for y
y = 3(-1/3) - 2
but 3 * (1/3) = 1
and 3 * (- 1/3) = - 1
So y = -1 - 2
y = - 3
Think of this as a money question. If you are one dollar in the whole and you spend 2 more, you are not 3 in the whole which is minus 3.
Answer:
Correct choice is 4, f(6) = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
f(6) means x = 6. If you look at the piecewise function, x = 6 meets the criteria for the second equation which is just 15. You need the first equation ONLY if x is less than 4.
