On a game show, a contestant randomly chooses a chip from a bag that contains numbers and stripes. the theoretical probability of choosing a strike is 3/5. the bag contains 9 strikes. how many chips are in the bag?

*I'm going to assume you meant stripes.

So in total there are 15 chips in the bag.

9 of them are stripes and 6 are numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are 9 stripes in the bag.

The probability of getting a stripe is 3/5

This means that for every 5 chips that the contestant pulls out, 3 of them should be stripes. This also means 2 of them are numbers.

So we know that 9 of the chips in the bag are stripes. To find the total number of stripes we should divide 9 by 3/5:

So we get:

guess at question:

a vertical line intersects the graph of g(x,y) = 0 at two points. what conclusion follows about the function f(x) implicitly defined by g(x,f(x)) = 0?

the domain of f(x) cannot include the x coordinate of any such vertical line.

informally, f(x) is not a function, and

g(x,y)=0 cannot be solved for y uniquely.

the relation r = {(x,y) such that g(x,y) = 0} is a function if

for all (a,b) ∊ r and (c,d) ∊ r, a=c implies b=d.
