A bag contains 4 blue and 5 red counters. Two counters are chosen at random without replacement. What is the probability that th

Answer:

P(both are red) = 5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

total counters = 9

red counters = 5

P(both red) = P(R1) n P(R2)

5/9 * 4/8 =5/18

5/9 because the red counters are 5 and the total number of counters are 9.

I multiplied by 4/8 because, after selecting the first red counter without replacement, the remaining is 4 and the total decreases to 8.

Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(81).
Shalnov [3]
Given the function f (x) = 3x, find the value of f-1 (81).
 For this case, the first thing you should do is rewrite the function.
 We have then:
 y = 3 ^ x
 From here, we clear the value of x:
 log3 (y) = log3 (3 ^ x)
 log3 (y) = x
 Then, we rewrite the function again:
 f (x) ^ - 1 = log3 (x)
 Now, we evaluate the inverse function for x = 81:
 f (81) ^ - 1 = log3 (81)
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
 Answer:
 the value of f-1 (81) is: 
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4

P(x) =9x +30

the tips are a flat rate so it’s a constant 30 while the 9 per hour is dependent on the hours worked which is why it is attached to x as a coefficient
