The value of (f + g)(x) is x² + x - 14

Given: f(x) = 5x - 6

g(x) = x² - 4x - 8.

To find the value of (f + g)(x)

What are functions?

Functions are expressions or a rule that defines the relation between different variables which are described for a given problem.

Let's solve the question:

f(x) = 5x - 6

g(x) = x² - 4x - 8

We know from the algebra of functions that:

(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

f(x) + g(x) = (5x - 6) + (x² - 4x - 8)

Now grouping like terms:

= x² + (5x - 4x) + (-6 - 8)

= x² + x - 14

Therefore, (f + g)(x) is x² + x - 14

Hence the value of (f + g)(x) is x² + x - 14

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

His rate is ...

rate = commission/sales · 100% = 31.29/208.60 · 100%

rate = 15%

Mr. Robins' commission rate is 15% of bookings.

Answer:

1. 30

2. 150

Step-by-step explanation:

$3tan^2(x)-1 =0$

Lets assume tan(x) = u

$3u^2(x)-1 =0$

Now we solve for 'u'

add 1 on both sides

$3u^2(x) =1$ , divide both sides by 3

$u^2 = \frac{1}{3}$

Take square root on both sides

$u = +-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$

We replace tan(x) for 'u'

$tan(x) = +-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$

x = 30 because $tan(30) =+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ in first quadrant

x = 30 (tan is positive in first quadrant)

$tan(x) =-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$

x = 150 because $tan(150) =-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ in second quadrant

tan is negative in second quadrant

From a group of 8 volunteers, including Andrew and Karen, 4 people are to be selected at random to organize a charity event. Wha

Helga [31]

Answer:

The correct option is D. 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

There are 8 volunteers including Andrew and Karen, 4 people are to be selected at random to organize a charity event.

We need to determine the probability Andrew will be among the 4 volunteers selected and Karen will not.

We want to select Andrew and 3 others but not Karen in the group.

Thus, the number of ways to select 3 member out of 8-2=6

(We subtract 2 from 8 because Andrew is already selected and we don't want Karen to be selected, so subtract 2 from 8.)

The required probability is:

$\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\dfrac{\frac{6!}{3!3!}}{\frac{8!}{4!4!}}\\\\\\\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\frac{20}{70}\\\\\\\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\dfrac{2}{7}$

Hence, the correct option is D. 2/7
