if f(x)=2^x -10 and the domain of f(x) is the set of integers from -1 to 3, which values are elements of the range of f (x)? Sel

nikitadnepr [17]

The domain of the function is the range of values of x that can be used to be replaced in the equation for it to become true. We are given that the value of f(x) should range only from -1 to 3. We evaluate each of the choices and see if the values of f(x) will fall within the range.

(a) -12; f(x) = 2^(-12) - 10 = -9.9999 (NOT AN ANSWER)
(b) -10; f(x) = 2^(-10) - 10 = -9.999 (NOT AN ANSWER)
(c) -9; f(x) = 2^(-9) - 10 = -9.999 (NOT AN ANSWER)
(d) -6; f(x) = 2^(-6) - 10 = -9.98 (NOT AN ANSWER)
(e) -2; f(x) = 2^(-2) - 10 = -9.75 (NOT AN ANSWER)

Hence, none of the choices will allow the value of f(x) to fall between -1 and 3.

What is the probability of selecting a red card from a standard deck of 52 playing cardships that does not contain a joker?

Rasek [7]

We know that the deck of cards contain half red and half black cards or you can say we have 26 red cards and 26 black cards.
we have to find probability of red cards from a deck of cards
so,
probability (selecting red card) = $\frac{26}{52}$
= $\frac{1}{2}$

Probability ( selecting red card ) = <span> $\frac{1}{2}$ Answer</span>

Round seven point seven six to one decimal place

Rzqust [24]

7.76 to one decimal place

= 7.8

We are looking at one decimal place, in this case the number 7 after the decimal place next to 6. Any number above 5 rounds up the number in front of it. 6 is above 5 so it changes the 7 to an 8.
