Answer:

(-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, the absolute value function can be expressed like so:

f(x) = y = a|x-h|+k, where vertex: (h,k)

Rewriting our function here ever so slightly gives us: y = 3|x-(-1)|+(-2)

So the vertex is at (-1,-2)

Solve for p. −4.5 + p6= −18.9

Vesna [10]

Answer:

-2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

We have the expression before us as

−4.5 + p6= −18.9

Collect like terms

p6= −18.9+4.5

p6= -14.4

Divide both sides by 6

p= -14.4/6

p=-2.4

Hence the value of p= -2.4

A bag contains 42 red marbles, 6 white marbles, and 8 gray marbles. You randomly pick out a marble, record its color, and put it

Elanso [62]

For any single draw,

$\mathbb P(\text{white})=\dfrac6{42+6+8}=\dfrac6{56}$
$\mathbb P(\text{gray})=\dfrac8{42+6+8}=\dfrac8{56}$

Drawing a white marble or a gray marble are disjoint events; only one of them can happen. So

$\mathbb P(\text{white or gray})=\mathbb P(\text{white})+\mathbb P(\text{gray})-\underbrace{\mathbb P(\text{white and gray})}_0$
$\mathbb P(\text{white or gray})=\dfrac6{56}+\dfrac8{56}=\dfrac{14}{56}$

Out of 224 draws, you should expect $\dfrac{14}{56}\times224=56$ of the marbles to be either white or gray.
