Operations with variables can give you excluded values by making the denominator equal to zero.
Ex. 48/60 always equals to 4/5 but 4x/6x is not always equal to 2/3 because when you make x equal to zero it makes the equation invalid.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expresion is
We want to evaluate this expression for x=2.
We substitute x=2 into the expression.
This means that, we will put 2 wherever we see x in the given expresion.
This will give us:
Simplify the parenthesis
This is fairly complex, but looks like fun.
So first lets count how many bids are made till the bidding goes up to 160.
That is 100*160=16000
How much will be your random bid. Each bid has equal chance so it is the avarge of all bids. (1cent + 160dollars)/2 = 80dollars (rounded)
What is your chance of winning: 1 bid wins out of 16000 so 1/16000.
When you win your profit is 2000-80dollars=1920
1920/16000= 0.12 dollars
You entering the bidding costs 1 dollar and your average win is 0.12
This the outcome is 0.12-1=-0.88 dollars
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given function f(x)=![\[x^{2}-x\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5Bx%5E%7B2%7D-x%5C%5D)
We need to find f(-4) which means we need to find the value of the function when x=-4
.
On substituting x=-4 in the given function:
f(-4)=![\[-4^{2}-(-4)\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B-4%5E%7B2%7D-%28-4%29%5C%5D)
Square of -4 is 16.
Hence, f(-4)=![\[16+4\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B16%2B4%5C%5D)
=
Hence the value of the given function f(x)= when x=-4 is 20.
I can answer the slopes
Answer:
1. would have a slope of 2
2. would have a slope of -1.66
3.would have a slope of 0
4. would have a slope of -13
Step-by-step explanation:
(Y2 - Y1) / (X2 -X1)
1. (9-5) / (4-2) = 4 / 2 =2
2. (-5-5) / (3 - -3) = -10 / 6 = 1.66
3. (2 - 2) / (5 - -4) = 0 / 9 = 0
4. (-7 - 6) / (3 - 3) = -13 / 0 = -13
