First find the numbers that are divisible by 3.
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
There are 8 numbers divisible by 3 so there are 16 that are not divisible by 3.
P(not div by 3) = 16/24 = 2/3

Which inequality is represented by the graph? y≥35x−1.5 y≤35x−1.5 y<35x−1.5 y>35x−1.5
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

y > 0.6x - 1.5

Step-by-step Explanation:

We need two points, to get to the equation of the graph.

Since we've got the following equation for two points (x1, y1), (x2, y2):-

\boxed{ \mathsf{ \red{y - y_{1} =  \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} (x - x_{1})  }}}

okay soo

I found two points that lie on this graph, not on the shaded region but yeah the dotted line which defines the graph.

one point is <u>(0, -1.5)</u> which lies on the y axis(the point where the dotted line touches the y axis)

other point is <u>(2.5, 0)</u> and this lies on the x axis

placing these points in the place of (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) in the above mentioned equation

\mathsf{\implies y - ( - 1.5) =  \frac{0 -( - 1.5)}{2.5 -0 } (x -0 )}

you can take any one as (x1, y1) or (x2, y2).

so upon solving the above equation we get

\mathsf{\implies (y  +  1.5) =  \frac{0  +  1.5}{2.5  } (x  )}

\mathsf{\implies y  +  1.5 =  \frac{ 1.5}{2.5  } x  }

\mathsf{\implies y  +  1.5 =  \frac{ \cancel{1.5}\:\:{}^3}{\cancel{2.5}\:\:{}^5 } x  }

\mathsf{\implies y  +  1.5 =  \frac{ 3}{5 } x  }

multiplying both sides by 5

\mathsf{5y + 7.5 = 3x}

okay so this is the required equation of the dotted line

now we'll find the inequality

for this check whether the origin (0,0) lies under the shaded region or not

in this case it does

so

replacing x and y with 0

\mathsf{\implies5(0) + 7.5 = 3(0)}

\mathsf{\implies0 + 7.5 = 0}

this is absurd, 7.5 is not equal to 0 so we're gonna replace that equals sign with that of inequality

7.5 is greater than 0! so,

\mathsf{\implies7.5 > 0}

this goes for the whole equation, since we didnt swap any thing from left to right side of the equation or vice versa we can use this sign, to obtain the required inequality

\mathsf{5y + 7.5 > 3x}

dividing this inequality by 5, since there's no co-efficient in front of y in the given answers

we get

y + 1.5 > 0.6x

taking 1.5 to the RHS

<h3>y > 0.6x - 1.5 </h3>

that is the last option

Which equation represents an exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80)?
Lena [83]

The function f(x) = 5(x)⁴, and f(x) = 5(4)ˣ represents the function that passes through the point (2, 80) option second and fourth are correct.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always a positive. It denotes with exponent \rm y = a^x

where a is a constant and a>1

We have; an exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80).

f(x) = 4(x)⁵

Plug (2, 80) in the abovew function:

f(2) = 4(2)⁵ = 128 (false)

f(x) = 5(x)⁴

Plug (2, 80) in the abovew function:

f(2) = 5(2)⁴ = 80 (true)

f(x) = 4(5)ˣ

f(2) = 4(5)² = 100 (false)

f(x) = 5(4)ˣ

f(2) = 5(4)² = 80 (true)

Thus, the function f(x) = 5(x)⁴, and f(x) = 5(4)ˣ represents the function that passes through the point (2, 80) option second and fourth are correct.

Show how to use substitution or elimination to solve the following system of equations. Write the solution as an ordered pair.
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

  (4, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Substitution</u>

Using the second equation, we can substitute for y in the first equation.

  4x -(2x-2) = 10

  2x +2 = 10 . . . . simplify

  x +1 = 5 . . . . . . .divide by 2

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

  y = 2(4) -2) = 6 . . . . substitute for x in the equation for y

The solution is (x, y) = (4, 6).

__

<u>Elimination</u>

Often, we like to start with both equations in standard form when we solve by elimination. That is nice, but not completely necessary.

We can eliminate the y-variable by simply adding the two given equations.

  (4x -y) +(y) = (10) +(2x -2)

  4x = 8 + 2x . . . . . collect terms. The y-variable has been eliminated.

  2x = 8 . . . . . . . . . subtract 2x

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Y can be found using the second equation.

  (x, y) = (4, 6)

__

We could have eliminated the x-variable by multiplying the second equation by 2, then adding the two equations.

  (4x -y) +2(y) = (10) +2(2x -2)

  y = 6 . . . . . . . . . subtract 4x from both sides. The x-variable has been eliminated.

Now, x can be found using either equation.

  6 = 2x -2 . . . substitute for y in the second equation

  3 = x - 1 . . . divide by 2

  x = 4 . . . . . add 1

  (x, y) = (4, 6)

Fill in the blank. In the triangle below, y=__. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Kobotan [32]
To solve this we use trigonometric functions that would relate the hypotenuse y and the given values. For this case we use cosine function which is expressed as:

cosine theta = adjacent side / hypotenuse
cosine 52 = 35 / y
y = 35 / cos 52
y = 56.85
