Answer:

x = 5

  or

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  -8x  its coefficient is  -8 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +15

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • 15 = 15

Step-2 : Find two factors of  15  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -8 .

     -15    +    -1    =    -16

     -5    +    -3    =    -8

The function f(x) is shown below.
Elenna [48]

The value of f(g(2)) is 2.

<h3>What is function?</h3>

An expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).

The given table is

x       f(x)

–6      1

–3       2

2       5

5       3

8       0

If the coordinates of a function f(x) is defined as (x,y)

then, the coordinates of inverse of f(x) is defined as (y,x).

f(g(y))= f(x)    [ g(x)= (y,x)]

f(g(y))= y

So, If g(x) is the inverse of f(x), the f(g(y)) = y.

Also, we know g(x) is the inverse of f(x), then f(g(2)) = 2.

oee [108]

Calculista Ambitious

the correct question in the attached figure


Let

s----------> total savings


case a) Israel added $80 to his savings


we know that

80=(1/8)*s-------> multiply by 8 both sides------> s=$640


the answer case a) is

the equation is 

80=(1/8)*s


case b) Israel added $120 to his savings


we know that

120=(1/8)*s-------> multiply by 8 both sides------> s=$960


the answer case b) is

the equation is 

120=(1/8)*s
