Answer:

Lets say we have (-1)^(1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1)^(1.5) = (-1)^(3/2)

= (√(-1))^3 which has no solution in the real number field, as √(-1) does not exist.

In the complex number field √(-1) = i, and (-1)^(1.5) = i^3 = -i.

Let f(x) = x2 - 8x 5. Find f(-1).
Ymorist [56]
In the equation you have to replace all x's with -1

f (-1) = (-1)^2 - 8(-1) +5
f (-1) =  1 + 8 + 5
f (-1) = 14

the f(-1) stand for the function of -1. it is also equivalent to y

Determine whether the following value could be a probability<br> 0.12
Luda [366]

Answer:

Yes, it could be a probability

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event HAS to be between the numbers 0 and 1. Not less than 0, not greater than 1. The number 0.12 is between 0 and 1, thus, making it a valid probability.

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The second option,

b.) C(x)=40.60x+201

<h2>Why?</h2>

We are given the functions E(x) and K(x), since they both are function of the same variable, we need to add them in order to find the correct option.

From the statement we know the functions:

E(x)=22.75x+74

and

K(x)=17.85x+127

So, adding the functions we have:

C(x)=E(x)+F(x)

C(x)=(22.75x+74)+(17.85x+127)

C(x)=22.75x+17.85x+74+127

C(x)=40.60x+201

Hence, the answer is the second option,

b.) C(x)=40.60x+201

Have a nice day!
