<h3>
Answer: D) The y intercept is (0,1)</h3>
This can be confirmed by plugging x = 0 into the function to find that...
y = (1/2)^x
y = (1/2)^0
y = 1
Recall that any nonzero value to the 0th power leads to 1. So we can say x^0 = 1 as long as x is not zero.

Extra info (optional section):
- We can rule out choice A because negative x values work in the domain. For instance, if x = -1, then it leads to y = (1/2)^x = (1/2)^(-1) = 2. The negative exponent will apply the reciprocal operation to the base fraction.
- Choice B can also be ruled out because the range is y > 0. Or you could note that it is possible to get positive y values smaller than 1/2. Try x = 2 and you'll see it leads to y = 1/4 which is not greater than 1/2.
- Choice C is false as well. The function f(x) = (1/2)^x is decreasing throughout the domain. A graph visually would show this due to it going downhill when moving from left to right. A table of values is a non-visual way to see we have a decreasing function. The table would show that y decreases when x increases.
Alright so I'm coming up with this on the fly; you have the first six letters (a,b,c,d,e,f) and 0-9 and your ten numbers. calculate the amount of possible combinations for the letters by simply writing them down.
ab, ac, ad, ae, a f- five
bc, bd , be, bf- four
cd, ce, cf- three
de, df- two
ef,- one.
adding these all together gets a total of 15 for the letters. now the numbers
01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09- nine
12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19- eight
23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29- seven
34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39- six
45, 46, 47, 48, 49- five
56, 57, 58, 59- four
67, 68, 69- three
78, 79- two
89- one
added together with a total of 45 combinations.
alright so, 45 different number combinations and 15 letter combinations. multiplying 15 by 45 should tell you the total possible combinations for a two letter and two number serial-number
Answer: 5.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this situation there is no replacement so we have to mulitply the probablilty of the first,second, and third marble being green. First marble has a 8/19 probablilty of being selected because 19 total marbles in the bag and 8 green marbles. the next marble will have a 7/18 probabililty because now only 18 marble are in the bag and we are assuming we selected a green marble on our first draw. Same thing with the last green marble it would be 6/17 because there would be 17 marbles in the bag and 6 green ones left assuming we got the first 2
so 8/19*7/18*6/17=
56/969=
0.05779
5.77%
5.8%
