Answer:

4/6 or 66.666...%

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to find the probability of obtaining neither a 5 nor a 2 you find how many times they occur and add them together in this case 5 occurs once and 2 also occurs once out of 6 numbers so 1/6 + 1/6 equals 2/6, you now know that 4/6 of them won't be a 5 nor a 2 and because it is a fair die the likelihood of it falling on a number is the same for all sides so the answer is 4/6 or 66.67%.

Which set of points includes all of the solutions for y = negative three halves times x plus two? line going through 0 comma 2 a

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

$(x,-\frac{3}{2} x+2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

For $y= \frac{-3}{2} x+2$ the set of points that include all solutions are $(x,y)$ such that $y= \frac{-3}{2} x+2$ ; then we have $(x,y)=(x,\frac{-3}{2} x+2)$ .

What is important to stress here is that $(x,-\frac{3}{2} x+2)$ represents all of the solutions, while other points that we are given represent one solution (for example, point (2,-1) is just one solution)

Which graph represents the function f (x) = StartFraction 2 Over x minus 1 EndFraction + 4?

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a hyperbola is shown. One curve opens up and to the right in quadrant 1, and the other curve opens down and to the left in quadrant 3. A vertical asymptote is at x = 1, and the horizontal asymptote is at y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is presented as follows;

$f(x) = \dfrac{2}{x - 1} + 4$

From the given function, we have;

When x = 1, the denominator of the fraction, $\dfrac{2}{x - 1}$ , which is (x - 1) = 0, and the function becomes, $\dfrac{2}{1 - 1} + 4 = \dfrac{2}{0} + 4 = \infty + 4 = \infty$ therefore, the function in undefined at x = 1, and the line x = 1 is a vertical asymptote

Also we have that in the given function, as <em>x</em> increases, the fraction $\dfrac{2}{x - 1}$ tends to 0, therefore as x increases, we have;

$\lim_ {x \to \infty} \dfrac{2}{(x - 1)} \to 0, and \ \dfrac{2}{(x - 1)} + 4 \to 4$

Therefore, as x increases, f(x) → 4, and 4 is a horizontal asymptote of the function, forming a curve that opens up and to the right in quadrant 1

When -∞ < x < 1, we also have that as <em>x</em> becomes more negative, f(x) → 4. When x = 0, $\dfrac{2}{0 - 1} + 4 = 2$ . When <em>x</em> approaches 1 from the left, f(x) tends to -∞, forming a curve that opens down and to the left

Therefore, the correct option is on a coordinate plane, a hyperbola is shown. One curve opens up and to the right in quadrant 1, and the other curve opens down and to the left in quadrant 3. A vertical asymptote is at x = 1, and the horizontal asymptote is at y = 4.
