He donated $285 to the salvation army.
The first thing to do is solve for "x". The equation would be {2(3x+60)}+5x+100=550. 
Then, you would multiply 2 with 3x and 60. Your new equation would be 5x+120+5x+100=550. 
Next, you would combine like terms. This means to combine the terms that are similar. In this case, it would be the whole numbers and the numbers with the variable. Your new equation would be 10x+220=550. 
After that, you subtract 220 on both sides of the equal sign. This makes the equation 10x=330. 
Then, you divide ten on both sides of the equal sign, giving you x=33.
The second things to is replace the x with 33. The amount for the salvation army is 5x+120. Replacing 33 with x, your final equation will be 165+120=$285.

Have a great day!!! :)

Two piecewise functions are shown below. What is the value of
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what your problem here is.

you understand the inequality signs ?

anyway, to get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1)

we can calculate every part of the expression separately, and then combine all the results into one final result.

f(-2)

we look at the definition.

into what category is -2 falling ? the one with x<-2, or the one with x>=-2 ?

is -2 < -2 ? no.

is -2 >= -2 ? yes, because -2 = -2. therefore, it is also >= -2.

so, we have to use

1/3 x³

for x = -2 that is

1/3 × (-2)³ = 1/3 × -8 = -8/3

g(1)

again, we look at the definition.

into what category is 1 falling ? the one with x > 2 ? or the one with x <= 1 ?

is 1 > 2 ? no.

is 1 <= 1 ? yes, because 1=1. therefore it is also <= 1.

so we have to use

2×|x - 1| + 3

for x = 1 we get

2×0 + 3 = 3

6×f(-2) = 6 × -8/3 = 2× -8 = -16

3×g(1) = 3× 3 = 9

and so in total we get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1) = -16 + 9 = -7

x = -2

∠A = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 37 + x + 57 = 90

reduce:

2x = -4

x = -2

MARKING AS BRAINLIEST!! Starr if given functions are inverse)!
Kitty [74]

Answer: They are inverses of each other

==========================================================

Explanation:

We'll need to compute h(f(x)) and f(h(x)) to see if we get x each time.

h(x) = 9x-4\\\\h(f(x)) = 9(f(x))-4\\\\h(f(x)) = 9\left(\frac{x+4}{9}\right)-4\\\\h(f(x)) = x+4-4\\\\h(f(x)) = x\\\\

and,

f(x) = \frac{x+4}{9}\\\\f(h(x)) = \frac{h(x)+4}{9}\\\\f(h(x)) = \frac{9x-4+4}{9}\\\\f(h(x)) = \frac{9x}{9}\\\\f(h(x)) = x\\\\

Both composite functions lead to x each time.

The equations h(f(x)) = x and f(h(x)) = x being true means each function is the inverse of the other.
