Answer:

1/8 or 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the sides of the square ABCD.

Therefore, the length of CN and CM is x/2.

The area of the triangle MCN is:

A_t = \frac{0.5x*0.5x}{2}=\frac{x^2}{8}

The area of the square ABCD is:

A_s =x*x =x^2

Thus, the probability that a random point lies in the triangle MCN is:

P=\frac{A_t}{A_s}=\frac{\frac{x^2}{8}}{x^2}=\frac{1}{8}=0.125

The probability that the point will lie in the triangle MCN is 1/8 or 0.125.

Can you pleasee explain how to find a y- intersept??
AveGali [126]

a y-intercept is any point that has an x-value of 0. for example, the ordered pairs (0,6) and (0,-4) would both be considered y-intercepts since any point with an x-value of 0 overlaps with the y-axis.

In the year 2005, a total of 750 fish were introduced into a manmade lake. The fish population was expected to grow at a rate of
rewona [7]
Exponential change can be modeled by:
N = N(0) x λⁿ; where λ is the rate of change. It is greater than 1 when there is growth and less than 1 when there is decay. n is the number of time periods passed.
λ is 1 + 0.083 = 1.083
N(0) is the initial value of 750
n is 2050 - 2005 = 45 years
N = 750 x (1.083)⁴⁵
= 27,000 fish

Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(81).
Shalnov [3]
Given the function f (x) = 3x, find the value of f-1 (81).
 For this case, the first thing you should do is rewrite the function.
 We have then:
 y = 3 ^ x
 From here, we clear the value of x:
 log3 (y) = log3 (3 ^ x)
 log3 (y) = x
 Then, we rewrite the function again:
 f (x) ^ - 1 = log3 (x)
 Now, we evaluate the inverse function for x = 81:
 f (81) ^ - 1 = log3 (81)
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
 Answer:
 the value of f-1 (81) is: 
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
