6. Let f(x)=x-2 and g(x) = x^2. Find the value of (fog)(-1).
A. -1
B.9
C.3
D.-3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x - 2

g(x) = x²

In order to find (fog)(-1) we must first find (fog)(x)

To find (fog)(x) substitute the g(x) into f(x) that's for every x in f (x) replace it with

g (x).

That's

(fog)(x) = x² - 2

To find (fog)(-1) substitute the value of x that's - 1 into (fog)(x)

We have

(fog)(-1) = (-1)² - 2 = 1 - 2 = - 1

Hope this helps you

The answer is A

three sphere of radius 4cm each fit inside a tube calculate the percentage of the tube.

Answers

Answer:

66.6% (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

Each sphere 4/3[tex]\pi[/tex]r²=4/3[tex]\pi[/tex](4²)=268.08cm³

Assuming the tube is the same width and height as the three spheres,

V=[tex]\pi[/tex]r²h=[tex]\pi[/tex](4²)24=1206.37

The three spheres are 268.08*3=804.24cm³

The tube is 1206.37cm³

I’m not sure if your question is asking the percentage of the tube that’s filled, or the percentage that’s unfilled.

Filled: 804.24÷1206.37=0.66666=66.6%

Unfilled: 1206.37-804.24=402.13

402.13÷106.37=0.33333=33.3%

Answer:

Percentage of Tube Unfilled : 33 and 1/3%

Step-by-step explanation:

It's most likely that we want to calculate the percentage of the tube unfilled, as the tube itself wouldn't be provided otherwise. We can start by calculating the volume of the tube --- (1)

The volume of a cylinder is represented by πr²h. Substituting we would receive π(4)²h. h is represented by 3 times the diameter of each sphere, as it is aligned such. Diameter = 2 * r = 2 * 4 = 8, so h = 3 * 8 = 24. Therefore Tube Volume = π(4)²(24) = π(16)(24) = 384π.

Now let's solve for the volume of a sphere, multiplying by three to receive the total volume of all 3 spheres --- (2)

Volume of 1 Sphere : 4 / 3πr³ = 4 / 3π(4)³ = 4 / 3π * 64 = 256 / 3π

Volume of all 3 Spheres : 256 / 3π * 3 = 256π

And now the volume of the tube that is unfilled, will be 384π - 256π = 128π. The total volume of the tube is 384π, so the percentage of the unfilled tube will be 128π / 384π or 128 / 384 = 0.333333333 * 100 = 33.33333...%. Therefore the percentage of the tube that is not filled will be 33.33% approximately, or 33 and 1/3% in exact terms.

55 176 539 1628 in the sequence above each rem after the first is determined by multiplying by x and then adding y. If x and y are each greater than zero and if they are integers than what does the term x+y equals?

Answers

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence : 55 176 539 1628

Each number after the first is derived by multiplying by x and then adding y;

If x and y are > 0 and they are integers.

Taking 55 and 176:

176 = 55*x + y

539 = 176*x + y

55x + y = 176 - - - (1)

176x + y = 539 - - (2)

From (1) y = 176 - 55x

Substitute y = 176 - 55x into (2)

176x + 176 - 55x = 539

121x = 539 - 176

121x = 363

x = 363 / 121

x = 3

Put x = 3 in y = 176 - 55x

y = 176 - 55(3)

y = 176 - 165

y = 11

x = 3, y = 11

x + y = 3 + 11 = 14

How would you combine like terms with exponents? Do you add the exponents?

Answers

Answer: When combining like terms, add or subtract the coefficients. Keep the exponents as they are.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can combine 2x^2 + 3x^2 to get 5x^2. If x =3, 3^2=9 So 2(3)^2 is 18 and 3(3)^2 is 27. 18+27=45 And 5(3)^2= 45. Same result!

You can not combine 2x^2 and 2x^3. If the value of x is 3, 2(3)^2 this term works out to =18 and 2(3)^3 =54

If you add the exponents x^5 becomes 2(3)^5 or 2×243=486. Vastly different values! Don't add exponents unless you are multiplying terms.

Yes, when combining like terms with exponents, you add the exponents only if the terms have the same base.

What is an expression?

An expression contains one or more terms with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

We always combine the like terms in an expression when we simplify.

We also keep all the like terms on one side of the expression if we are dealing with two sides of an expression.

Example:

1 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

3 + 4 is an expression.

2 x 4 + 6 x 7 – 9 is an expression.

33 + 77 – 88 is an expression.

When combining like terms with exponents, you add the exponents only if the terms have the same base.

Fence posts are erected 5m apart (with a post at each corner) to support fencing round a rectangular field. If the field measures 100m by 60m, how many posts are needed?

Answers

Answer:

Dimension of rectangular field = 100m by 60m

Since it is erected around the corners of the field, we need to calculate the entire perimeter of the rectangular field.

Perimeter of a rectangle : 2( length + breadth)

Perimeter = 2(100 +60) = 2(160) = 320m

Iris has 120 songs on her playlist. each week, she downloads 4 new songs. Write an expression to show the total number of songs on Iris's playlist after 'w' weeks.. (Help please!)

Answers

Answer: 4w+120.
Explanation: She downloads 4 songs for every week which is represented as 4w, and she started with 120 songs which is represented as +120.

The expression that shows the total number of songs on Iris playlist is 120 + 4w

A linear expression is an expression that has only one variable. The single variable is raised to the power of 1.  An example of a linear expression is x + 10  

Iris already has 120 songs on her playlist. She increases her playlist every week by four songs.

This means that each week, her playlist increases by 4. This can be represented with the expression : 4 x w = 4w

Where w represents the number of weeks.

In week 10, her playlist increases by: 4 x 1 = 4 songs

In week 10, her playlist increases by : 4 x 10 = 40 songs

But Iris already has 120 songs

This can be represented with the expression 120 + 4w

After 1 week, the total songs she would have is 120 + 4 = 124 songs

After 10 weeks, the total songs she would have is 120 + 40 = 160 songs

a. Does a ball with a diameter that is $\frac{1}{4}$

times the amount of rubber coating? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

The radius, r₂, of the ball that uses one-half the amount of rubber coating used to cover the 16-inch ball is approximately 4.66 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of the ball with known radius = 16-inch

The surface area of the ball with 16-inch radius = 4×π×r² = π·D² = π×16² = 804.24772 in.²

Given that the ball uses one-half the rubber material coating used to cover the 16-inch ball, we have the surface area of the ball = 804.24772 in.²/2 = 402.12386 in.²

The radius, r₂ of the new ball is found as follows;

402.12386 in.² = 4×π×r₂²

r₂² = 402.12386 in.² /(4×π) ≈ 32

r₂ = √32 = 4·√2 ≈ 4.66 inches

The radius, r₂, of the ball that uses one-half the amount of rubber coating used to cover the 16-inch ball ≈ 4.66 inches.
