I am having difficulties solving this problem someone pls help.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Each time, the x is being multiplied by -3 to result in the output.

So for every x input, multiply by -3.

For the y output for 15, you would divide by -3 to find the input x

For example, when 7 is the input, multiply by -3, and the output y would result in -21.

. At a clothing store, 12 people purchased blue sweaters, 8 purchased green sweaters, 4 purchased gray sweaters, and 7 purchased

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The probability that they purchased a green or a gray sweater is $\frac{12}{31}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the greater or lesser possibility of a certain event occurring. In other words, probability establishes a relationship between the number of favorable events and the total number of possible events. Then, the probability of any event A is defined as the quotient between the number of favorable cases (number of cases in which event A may or may not occur) and the total number of possible cases. This is called Laplace's Law.

$P(A)=\frac{number of favorable cases}{number of possible cases}$

The addition rule is used when you want to know the probability that 2 or more events will occur. The addition rule or addition rule states that if we have an event A and an event B, the probability of event A or event B occurring is calculated as follows:

P(A∪B)= P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

Where:

P (A): probability of event A occurring.

P (B): probability that event B occurs.

P (A⋃B): probability that event A or event B occurs.

P (A⋂B): probability of event A and event B occurring at the same time.

Mutually exclusive events are things that cannot happen at the same time. Then P (A⋂B) = 0. So, P(A∪B)= P(A) + P(B)

In this case, being:

P(A)= the probability that they purchased a green sweater
P(B)= the probability that they purchased a gray sweater
Mutually exclusive events

You know:

8 purchased green sweaters
4 purchased gray sweaters
number of possible cases= 12 + 8 + 4+ 7= 21

So:

$P(A)=\frac{8}{31}$

$P(B)=\frac{4}{31}$

P(A⋂B) = 0

Then:

P(A∪B)= P(A) + P(B)

P(A∪B)= $\frac{8}{31}+ \frac{4}{31}$

P(A∪B)= $\frac{12}{31}$

The probability that they purchased a green or a gray sweater is $\frac{12}{31}$

What is the simplified form of the following expression?(x10)(x2) x8 x12 x20 x100

notka56 [123]

I believe the answer would be x20. Between the two parentheses there's a multiplication symbol. So you would just pretend that the parentheses aren't there cause the variable(s) (x) is/are like terms. So you would just multiply 10 times 2 and put out the x back in front of it

Evaluate the functionf(-x) = f(x) plug in the points (2,1) then solve

jarptica [38.1K]

Problem

evaluate the function

f(-x) = f(x)

plug in the points (2,1) then solve

Solution

For this case we can conclude that:

f(2) =1

So then we satisfy that:

f(-2) =1
