Find the composition (f ∘ g)(–2) for the functions f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = x2 – 3.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(f∘g)(x) = f(g(x))

 = f(x²-3)

 = 2(x²-3) + 1

 = 2x² - 5

(f∘g)(-2) = 2(-2)² - 5

  = 2·4 - 5

  = 8 - 5

  = 3

Answer 2

The composition (f ∘ g)(–2) for the functions f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = x2 –  3 will be 3

What is composition of a function ?

The composition of a function is an operation where two functions say f and g generate a new function say h in such a way that h(x) = g(f(x)). It means here function g is applied to the function of x. So, basically, a function is applied to the result of another function.

The notation used for composition is: (f o g)(x) = f(g(x))

(fog)(x) = f(g(x))

this implies , (fog)(-2) = f(g(2))

given :

f(x) = 2x + 1

g(x) = x2 – 3

(fog)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(x^2 - 3)

                        =  2 (x^2 -3) +1

                        = 2x^2 - 5                                    equation 1

fog(-2) =  f(g(2))

substituting the value of x = 2 in equation 2

           = 2 * (2)^2 -5

           = 3

A ball is projected upward from ground level. After t seconds, it’s height in feet is a function defined by f (t) = -16t^2 + 96t. In how many seconds will the rocket be at a height of 128 ft above the ground?

Answers

Answer:

t = 2 s and t = 4 s

Step-by-step explanation:

A ball is projected upward from ground level. After t seconds, it’s height in feet is a function defined by,

[tex]f (t) = -16t^2 + 96t[/tex]

We need to find in how many seconds will the rocket be at a height of 128 ft above the ground.

It means,

[tex]128= -16t^2 + 96t\\\\-16t^2+96t-128=0\\\\16(-t^2+6t-8)=0\\\\(-t^2+6t-8)=0\\\\-t^2+4t+2t-8=0\\\\t(-t+4)-2(-t+4)=0\\\\(t-2)=0\ and\ (-t+4)=0\\\\t=2\ and\ t=4[/tex]

So, it will be at a height of 128 feet at 2 second and 4 second.

A cinema has 300 seats. 60% are filled. How many are empty? i will give brainliest

Answers

180 are empty
............

Answer:

120 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Total seats in the hall = 300

Percentage of filled seats = 60 %

Number of seats filled = (60 / 100) 300

                                     = 60 * 3

                                     = 180

Therefore, number of empty seats = 300 - 180

                                                          = 120

The aquarium opened at 8.00 am . In the first hour 140 people purchased admission tickets . In the second hour 25 % more people purchased admission tickets than the first hour . Each ticket cost 15.25 . What was the total amount of money paid for all the tickets purchased in the first two hours please help

Answers

Answer:

Total income= $4,083.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total number of people that enter the aquarium in the first two hours.

1st hour= 140

2nd hour= 140*1.25= 175

Total number of people= 315

Now, we can determine the total amount of money earned:

Each ticket cost 15.25.

Total income= 315*15.25

Total income= $4,083.75

0.2 ______ 0.3 ______ X ________ 0.1

Since the bag contains only red, green, brown and yellow marbles ;

The sum of each color's probability should sum up to 1;

ΣP(x) = 1

Hence,

0.2 + 0.3 + x + 0.1 = 1

0.6 + x = 1

x = 1 - 0.6

x = 0.4

Write and solve an inequality to find the values of x for which the perimeter of the rectangle is less than 136.

The diagram says x+4 on the top and x on the side

please help me solve this thanks

Answers

Answer: 4x+8<120

x<28

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement in the question, the inequality will be 4x + 8 < 136.

What is inequality?

Inequalities are mathematical expressions where neither side is equal. In inequality, as opposed to equations, we compare the two values. Less than (or less than and equal to), larger than (or greater or equal to), or not similar to signs are used in place of the equal sign in between.

As per the instructions given in the question,

The length (l) of the rectangle = x+4

The width (w) of the rectangle = x

As per the formula of the perimeter, P:

P = 2 (l + w)   (i)

Put the values in (i)

P = 2 (x + 4 + x)

P = 2x + 8 + 2x

P = 4x + 8

Then the inequality as per the statement in the question will be,

4x + 8 < 136.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add '-2a' to each side of the equation.

5a + -2a = -6 + 2a + -2a

Combine like terms: 5a + -2a = 3a

3a = -6 + 2a + -2a

Combine like terms: 2a + -2a = 0

3a = -6 + 0

3a = -6

Divide each side by '3'.

a = -2

Simplifying

a = -2

5a -2a -6

Y=4-2x 3y-2x=4 solve using substitution

Answers

Answer:

x=1 y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=4-2x             3y=4+2x

3*(4-2x)=4+2x

12-6x=4+2x

12-4=2x+6x

8x=8

x=1

y=4-2*1

y=2

First turn the equation y=4-2x into a y=Mx+b formula. It would be y=-2x+4. Then plug it in into the y on the second equation. I’d be 3(-2x+4)-2x=4. Then solve. The answer is x=1. Hope it helped. :)
