HELPPPPP! Tamlin collects action figures and has 2 more female action figures than male action figures. He chooses two action fi

gures randomly. Write and simplify an expression that represents the probability that Tamlin will pick two female action figures without replacing the first action figure. Let x be the number of male action figures.

Answer:

x+2/2(2x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Tamlin has x male action figures and x + 2 female action figures, so a total of x + x + 2, or 2x + 2 action figures. The probability of picking two female action figures without replacement is equal to the product of the probability of

-picking 1 female action figure from the total number and

-picking 1 female action figure after 1 has been removed.

The probability of picking 1 female action figure from the total is equal to the total number of female action figures divided by the total number of action figures.

The probability of picking 1 female action figure after 1 has been removed is equal to the total number of female action figures minus 1 divided by the total number of action figures minus 1.

Multiply these two expressions and simplify.

F(x) = 2x² - 8x - 10.
This is a parabola open upward (since a>0) with an axis of symmetry = -b/2a:
a) axis of symmetry: x = -(-8)/(2*2) = 8/4 = 2. Then x = 2, which is the x component of the vertex
b) for x =  2, f(x) = f(2) = - 18 (component of y of the vertex)
c) VERTEX(2, - 18)
d) DISCRIMINENT: b² - 4.a.c = 64 - 4*2*(-10) = 144

Which of the following accurately lists all discontinuities of the function below?
jeka94
Checking the <span>discontinuity at point -4
from the left f(-4) = 4
from the right f(-4) = (-4+2)² = (-2)² = 4
∴ The function is continues at -4
</span>
<span>Checking the <span>discontinuity at point -2
from the left f(-2) = </span></span><span><span>(-2+2)² = 0
</span>from the right f(-2) = -(1/2)*(-2)+1 = 2
∴ The function is jump discontinues at -2
</span>
<span>Checking the <span>discontinuity at point 4
from the left f(4) = </span></span><span><span>-(1/2)*4+1 = -1
</span>from the right f(4) = -1
but there no equality in the equation so,
</span><span>∴ The function is discontinues at 4

The correct choice is the second
point </span>discontinuity at x = 4 and jump <span>discontinuity at x = -2</span>
