Answer:

41.67% probability that a student has a dog given that they have a cat

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: having a cat.

Event B: having a dog.

12 of 27 students have a cat:

This means that P(A) = \frac{12}{27}

5 students who have a cat and a dog.

This means that P(A \cap B) = \frac{5}{27}

What is the probability that a student has a dog given that they have a cat?

P(B|A) = \frac{\frac{5}{27}}{\frac{12}{27}} = \frac{5}{12} = 0.4167

41.67% probability that a student has a dog given that they have a cat

Consider the tables that represent ordered pairs corresponding to a function and its inverse. When comparing the functions using
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

D)The range of f(x) includes values such that y ≥ 1, so the domain of f–1(x) includes values such that x ≥ 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing tables are:

First table  

x:    0  1    2

f(x): 1   10  100

Second table

x:         1000   100   10

f^-1(x):  3          2       1  

Option A is not correct because f(x) has a y-intercept at (0, 1)

If f(x) has a y-intercept, then f^-1(x) has a x-intercept, which is located at (1, 0). Then option B is not correct

Option C is not correct because the domain of f^-1(x) is associated with x values.

Option D is correct because the domain of f(x) is the range of f^-1(x) and vice versa
