M(x)=1/x f(x)=2x-10 find the domain restriction of m(R(x))

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

x ≠ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m(x) = 1/x
f(x) = 2x - 10

Composite function

m(f(x)) = 1/ (2x - 10)

The denominator can't be zero

2x - 10 ≠ 0
2x ≠ 10
x ≠ 5

In a group of college students, the ratio of men to women is 3:1 (i.e., 3 to 1). In a recent survey, 40% of the men in this grou

katovenus [111]

Answer:

0.3875

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a group of college students, the ratio of men to women is 3:1 (i.e., 3 to 1). In a recent survey, 40% of the men in this group selected hiking as their favorite outdoor activity whereas 35% of the women in the group selected hiking as their favorite outdoor activity

From the above information we find that

P(Men) = 0.75 and P(women) = 0.25 (since men:women = 3:1)

Out of men prob for not selecting hiking as their favorite outdoor activity

$=1-0.6 = 0.4$

Out of women prob for not selecting hiking as their favorite outdoor activity

$=1-0.35 = 0.65$

Prob for a randomly selected person that hiking is not his/her favorite outdoor activity = Prob (man and not selected activitiy) + P(women and not selected activity) (since men and women are mutually exclusive and exhaustive)

= $0.75(0.4)+0.25(0.35)\\= 0.30+0.0875\\\\=0.3875$

5. The recursive algorithm given below can be used to compute gcd(a, b) where a and b are non-negative integer, not both zero.

s2008m [1.1K]

Implementating the given algorithm in python 3, the greatest common divisors of (124 and 244) and (4424 and 2111) are 4 and 1 respectively.

The program implementation is given below and the output of the sample run is attached.

def gcd(a, b):

#initialize a function named gcd which takes in two parameters

if a>b:

#checks if a is greater than b

return gcd (b, a)

#if true interchange the Parameters and Recall the function

elif a == 0:

return b

elif a == 1:

return 1

elif((a%2 == 0)and(b%2==0)):

#even numbers leave no remainder when divided by 2, checks if a and b are even

return 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)

elif((a%2 !=0) and (b%2==0)):

#checks if a is odd and B is even

return gcd(a, b/2)

else :

return gcd(a, b-a)

#since it's a recursive function, it recalls the function with new parameters until a certain condition is satisfied

print(gcd(124, 244))

print()

#leaves a space after the first output

print(gcd(4424, 2111))
