Answers

15. 2/9 (two ninths)

16. 5/9 (five ninths)

17. 1/3 (one third)

18. 9/9 (nine ninths)

19. 0

20. 7/9 (seven ninths)

Explanations

There are nine letters.

There is one T.

There are 4 E's.

There are two N's.

There are two S's.

15. You know that there are two S's. Two S's out of nine total letters is 2/9. The probability that an S is selected is 2/9.

16. A consonant is a letter that is <em>not</em> a vowel. The consonants in TENNESSEE are T, N, and S. There is one T, two N's, and two S's, meaning there are 5 consonants. Five consonants out of nine total letters is 5/9. The probability that a consonant is selected is 5/9.

17. You know that there is one T and two N's. This is a total of three letters. The probability of getting on of these three letters is 3/9. 3/9 simplified is 1/3. The probability of selecting a T or N is 1/3.

18. You know that there are no V's in TENNESSEE. Therefore, no matter what letter you select, there is a 100% chance you'll get a number that is not V. All nine letters are not the letter V, so the probability of selecting a letter that is not V is 1/1 or 1.

19. You know that there are no W's in TENNESSEE either. Therefore, whichever letter you select, you will <em>not</em> get a W. The chance of selecting a W is 0/9 or 0.

20. There are four S's. That means there are five letters that are not S. These are: T, N, N, S, S. Five letters out of nine letters in total is 5/9. The probability of selecting a number that is not S is 5/9.

Evaluate f(x) = 2|x – 5| for f(–5) and f(0).
Elanso [62]

Answer:

f(–5) = 20, f(0) = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-5):

f(-5) = 2|-5 -5|

f(-5) = 2|-10|

f(-5) = 2(10)

f(-5) = 20

f(0):

f(0) = 2|0 - 5|

f(0) = 2|-5|

f(0) = 2(5)

f(0) = 10
