Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, given

f(x) = 3x + 9 and g(x) = 5x -1

So the question is what is the value of f if we put the value of g(x) in f(x)

So to solve the equation we need to replace the value of x in f(x) with g(x)

So it was obtained as below

f(g(x)) = 3(5x-1) + 9

= (15 x - 3) + 9

= 15 x + 6

ycow [4]

Answer:

(x+4)(x-3) or A

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume that you meant to write x² and not x2

which means we have

x²+x-12

and we need to factor this

to do this we need two numbers that add up to 1 (b) but mulitply to -12 (a*c)

our two numbers are

4, -3

Which means the answer is

(x+4)(x-3)

the frame of a picture is 28 cm by 32 cm outside and is of uniform width.What is the width of the frame if 192 cm2 of the pictur

natita [175]

Answer:

The width of the frame is equal to $8\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the width of the frame picture

we know that

$(28-2x)(32-2x)=192$

$896-56x-64x+4x^{2} =192$

$4x^{2}-120x+704=0$

Simplify

$x^{2}-30x+176=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$ is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$x^{2}-30x+176=0$

$a=1\\b=-30\\c=176$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{30(+/-)\sqrt{(-30)^{2}-4(1)(176)}} {2(1)}$

$x=\frac{30(+/-)\sqrt{196}} {2}$

$x=\frac{30(+/-)14} {2}$

$x=\frac{30+14} {2}=22\ cm$ ----> this solution is not logic

$x=\frac{30-14} {2}=8\ cm$

The width of the frame is equal to $8\ cm$
