When we have a function such as h(x) = 2x, and we want to find the value of h at a given x value, we plug in the given number for x. For example, h(3) = 2*3 = 6.
We do the same thing with g(f(7)). In this case we plug 7 into f(x) for x, then plug the result of f(7) into g(x) for x.
f(7) = 15*7 - 12 = 93
g(93) = -15*93^2 + 14*93 - 10 = -128443
Answer:
603
Step-by-step explanation:
2680 x 3/10 =804
2680 x 15% = 402
2680 x 13% = 348.40
2680 x 1/8 = 335
2680 x 7% = <u> 187.60 </u>
2077
2680 - 2077 = 603
1 yard = 3 feet
2/3 of a yard would be 2 feet
4.5 yards = 13.5 feet
13.5-2 = 11.5 feet
11.5 feet = 3.83 yards
therefore at least 11.5 feet or 3.83 yards must be purchased
To subtract fractions, let's put a generic example.
Be the fractions
(a / b) - (c / d)
With a, b, c and d other than zero.
The subtraction of fractions is given by:
(a / b) - (c / d) = ((a * d) - (c * b)) / (b * d).
If the fractions have the same denominator then the subtraction is
(a / b) - (c / b) = (a-c) / (b)
answer
(a / b) - (c / d) = ((a * d) - (c * b)) / (b * d)
(a / b) - (c / b) = (a-c) / (b)
