If f(x)=2x-1 and g(x)=x^2-4, what is g(f(x))

Mathematics

Answer:

4x^2 - 4x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x - 1

g(x) = x^2 - 4

g(f(x)) = ?

[substitute the x of g(x) with f(x)]

g(x) = x^2 - 4

g(f(x)) = (2x - 1)^2 - 4

[solve]

[binomial * binomial = quadratic equation]

[use FOIL method (first, outer, inner, last)]

g(f(x)) = (2x - 1)(2x - 1) - 4

g(f(x)) = (2x*2x) + (-2x) + (-2x) + (1) - 4

[combine like terms]

g(f(x)) = 4x^2 - 2x - 2x + 1 - 4

g(f(x)) = 4x^2 - 4x - 3

The complement of an angle is 25 less than 3 times the angles itself. Find the measure of each
Semenov [28]

Answer: 28.75° and 61.25°

Step-by-step explanation:

A complementary angle equals 90°.

Let the measure of the angle be a

Therefore, its complement will be:

= 90-a.

The complement of an angle is 25 less than 3 times the angles itself can be written as:

90-a = 3a - 25

90 + 25 = 3a + a

115 = 4a

a = 115/4

a= 28.75

Since the angle is 28.75°, the complement will be:

= 90° - 28.75°

= 61.25°

The angles are 28.75° and 61.25°
