Answer:</h3>
4. -3
5. 3
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
4. For x > -2, the value of a is the slope of the line. The line goes down 3 units for each 1 to the right, so the slope is -3/1 = -3. Then a = -3.
___
5. The ordered pair (h, k) is typically used to name the point to which a function is translated. The vertex of the function f(x) = |x| is (0, 0). When it is translated to (h, k), the function becomes ...
... q(x) = |x -h| +k
If the new vertex is (3, 0), then h = 3 and k = 0. This is consistent with the equation shown. (k = 0 means q(x) = |x -h|.)
Answer:
x = 2√2
y = 2√6
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the ratio of the two legs of the two smaller interior right triangles. (refer to attached diagrams for the triangles - I have outlined one in blue and the other in red)
These will be equal since the triangles are similar
shorter leg : longer leg
(blue triangle = red triangle)
⇒ x : 4 = 2 : x
⇒ x/4 = 2/x
⇒ x² = 8
⇒ x = √8
⇒ x = 2√2
Now we have x, we have the two legs of the right triangle with hypotenuse labelled y.
Using Pythagoras' Theorem a² + b² = c² (where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse)
⇒ 4² + (2√2)² = y²
⇒ y² = 24
⇒ y = √24
⇒ y = 2√6
Answer:
-0.004 repeating
Step-by-step explanation:
5 times negative three is -15 and that to the negative second power is -0.004 with the 4 repeating.
Answer:
Z and B are independent events because P(Z I B) = P(Z)
Step-by-step explanation:
- If Z and B are independent, Z does not affect B and B does not affect Z.
- This means that, to know something about B does not help predicting Z, and to know something about B does not help predicting Z.
- Then, the probability P (Z/B) = P(Z) because B does not add any information about Z, therefore, the probability of Z only depends on itself.
