It would be greater than the original value think of (-) #s like debts that need to be payed off and if you get a friend to pay the debt with you then you each have to pay less than you would alone however b/cus the #s are negative the closer they are to zero the larger the number is

Use the given pair of functions to find and simplify expressions for the following functions and state the domain of each using
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Given functions,

f(x) = 3 - x^2

g(x) = \sqrt{x}+1

Since, by the compositions of functions,

1. (g◦f)(x) = g(f(x))

=g(3-x^2)

=\sqrt{3-x^2}+1

Since, (g◦f) is defined,

If 3 - x² ≥ 0

⇒ 3 ≥ x²

⇒ -√3 ≤ x ≤ √3

Thus, Domain = [-√3, √3]

2. (f◦g)(x) = f(g(x))

=f(\sqrt{x}+1)

=3-(\sqrt{x}+1)^2

Since, (g◦f) is defined,

If  x ≥ 0

Thus, Domain = [0, ∞)

3. (f◦f)(x) = f(f(x))

=f(3-x^2)

=3-(3-x^2)^2

=3-9-x^4+6x^2

=-6+6x^2-x^4

Since, (f◦f) is a polynomial,

We know that,

A polynomial is defined for all real value of x,

Thus, Domain = (-∞, ∞)

Mark and raquel were playing a word game.Raquel played the word math on a game board on a space marked’’triple points’.If her wo
Reika [66]

Answer:

111 points

Step-by-step explanation:

First, thing I like to do is to convert word problems into an eqaution or write down the important information.  So, Math = 37 points and now the points are tripled because of where she placed the word.  Also, tripled is implying that her base score for the word is 3 times the original value.

So, 37*3

= 111 points.

Ahat [919]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

when inputting our values into the formula for slope, we get (-2 - -1)/(7 - 6). Subtracting gives us -1/1 and our final answer is -1.
