Answer:

1/114 or 0.008772

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not very sure, my answer seems unlikely, but here's what I think:

There are 20 jerseys in the box to begin with, and 5 medium jerseys that you can have.

Therefore, the probability of you randomly grabbing a medium sized jersey is 5/20 or 1/4.

After taking out one medium sized jersey, there are 19 jerseys in the box and 4 medium jerseys you can pick from.

The probability of you randomly grabbing a medium sized jersey is 4/19.

After taking out another medium sized jersey, there are 18 jerseys left in the box and 3 medium jerseys you can pick from.

The probability of you randomly grabbing a medium sized jersey is 3/18.

To get the answer, you do 1/4 * 4/19 * 3/18, and get 1/114, or 0.00877192982.

If you round that to the nearest millionth, it's 0.008772

Don't judge me, it might not be correct.

The values of the functions are -1/ 4, 3/ 16 and 3/ 8 respectively.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

A function is a rule or expression showing the relationship between a dependent and independent variable.

We have the function to be;

f(x) = 3/ 4(x + 2)

Let's find f(-5), substitute the value of x as -5

f(-5) = 3/ 4 ( -5 + 2)

f(-5) = 3/ 4 × -3

f(-5)  = -1/ 4

f(2), substitute the value of x as  2

f(2) = 3/ 4(2 + 2)

f(2) = 3/ 4 (4)

f(2) = 3/ 16

f(4) = 3/ 4 ( 4 + 2)

f(4) = 3/ 4(6)

f(4)  = 3/ 8

Thus, the values of the functions are -1/ 4, 3/ 16 and 3/ 8 respectively.

Draw a conclusion is the statement below always sometimes or never true give at least two examples to support your reasoning the
hodyreva [135]
It's sometimes true.

One example is the least common multiple of 2 and 3 is 6, which is their product.

But the product isn't always the answer because (example 2:) the least common multiple of 6 and 10 is 30 because 6*5=30 and 3*10=30, however 6*10 is 60.

Ergo, it is only sometimes true.
