A third-grade class has 12 girls and 13 boys. A fourth-grade class has 10 boys and 11 girls. When picking teams for PE, one capt

ain will make a selection from the fourth-grade class, then the other captain will make a selection from the fourth-grade class. After that, the first captain will make a selection from the third-grade class, and the second captain will do likewise. Assuming everyone has an equally likely chance of being selected, what is the probability that the first captain will pick two girls before picking any boys?
A. 44/175
B. 117/143
C. 120/143
D. 133/143

Probability that the first captain's first pick is a girl = 11/21
Probability that the first captain's second pick is a girl = 12/25

<span>the probability that the first captain will pick two girls before picking any boys = 11/21 x 12/25 = 132/525 = 44/175</span>

Please please help <br><br> Given the function f(x)=1/3x*2-3x+5 determine the inverse relation
yuradex [85]

The inverse relation of the function f(x)=1/3x*2-3x+5 is f-1(x) = 9/2 + √(3x + 21/4)

<h3>How to determine the inverse relation?</h3>

The function is given as

f(x)=1/3x^2-3x+5

Start by rewriting the function in vertex form

f(x) = 1/3(x - 9/2)^2 -7/4

Rewrite the function as

y = 1/3(x - 9/2)^2 -7/4

Swap x and y

x = 1/3(y - 9/2)^2 -7/4

Add 7/4 to both sides

x + 7/4= 1/3(y - 9/2)^2

Multiply by 3

3x + 21/4= (y - 9/2)^2

Take the square roots

y - 9/2 = √(3x + 21/4)

This gives

y = 9/2 + √(3x + 21/4)

Hence, the inverse relation of the function f(x)=1/3x*2-3x+5 is f-1(x) = 9/2 + √(3x + 21/4)

I dont know the answer to this question I dont know what I can put for the x and the y
harina [27]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-4, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the values of x and y by working the problem using any of the methods of solving simultaneous equations that you have been taught.

Here, you observe that the y-coefficients are the same in each equation. That means you can cancel the y-terms by subtracting one equation from the other.

  (7x +6y) -(4x +6y) = (-4) -(8)

  3x = -12 . . . . simplify

  x = -4 . . . . . . divide by 3

Now, you can substitute this into either equation to find y.

 4(-4) +6y = 8

  6y = 24 . . . . . . . . add 16

  y = 4 . . . . . . . . divide by 6

The solution to this system of equation is ...

  • x = -4
  • y = 4
