You can use a plot diagram to plot the points and if they all go straight through the origin then it is proportional :)

In a horse race with 5 horses, you make a bet by predicting the ranking of all 5 horses. Suppose you place your bet at random. W

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

P( top two horses are predicted incorrectly in incorrect order)

= $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In the horse race the outcome can be predicted in 5! = 120 ways.

Now suppose the top two horses were predicted incorrectly in incorrect order. Now, the top horse can be predicted incorrectly in 4 ways.

Suppose the top horse was predicted to be in k-th position where k = 2, 3 ,4,5

so the second horse can be predicted to be in place from 1 to (k - 1)

So, the top two horses can be predicted incorrectly in incorrect order

in $\sum_{k =2}^{5}(k - 1)$ = 10 ways

and for each prediction of the two the remaining horses may be predicted in 3! = 6 ways.

Hence ,

P( top two horses are predicted incorrectly in incorrect order)

= $\frac{6 \times 10}{120}$

= $\frac{1}{2}$

If f(x) = 4x - 7, what's the value of f(2) ? *<br> O -1<br> O 1<br> O 20<br> O 35

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x - 7

What does f(x) mean? It means that whatever variable you have on the left which is (x), the same variable must be on the right.

So f(2) means that whatever variable is on the right, it must be replaced with 2 on the right. So .....

f(2) = 4(2) - 7

f(2) = 8 - 7

f(2) = 1

Pls explain how to solve it!

Sophie [7]

Answer:

a = jd

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve for a given that a/d = j

To do so we want to isolate a (get a by itself )

We can do this by using inverse operations.

We would want to get rid of the d

A is being divided by d.

The inverse of division is multiplication so to get rid of the d we multiply a/d by d but whatever we do to one side we must do to the other so we multiply both sides by d

a/d * d = a

j * d = jd

we are then left with a = jd

And we are done!

The image of the point (2, 1) under a translation is (5, -3). Find

Yanka [14]

Answer:

The coordinates of the image of the point (6,6) under the same translation is: (9, 2)

Hence, option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The image of the point (2, 1) under a translation is (5, -3).

It means when we horizontally move 3 units to the RIGHT i.e. adding 3 units to the x-coordinate and vertically move 4 units DOWN i.e. subtracting 4 units from the y-coordinate of the original point (2, 1), we get the coordinates of the image (5, -3).

Thus,

The rule of translation can be formulated such as:

(x, y) → (x + 3, y - 4)

(2, 1) → (2 + 3, 1 - 4) → (5, -3)

Thus,

Under the same rule of translation, we can determine the coordinates of the image of the point (6,6):

(x, y) → (x + 3, y - 4)

(6, 6) → (6 + 3, 6 - 4) → (9, 2)

Therefore, the coordinates of the image of the point (6,6) under the same translation is: (9, 2)

Hence, option C is correct.
