Answer:

<u>Hence final answer is B: Step 2.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the total points needed to score in six games: 96x6=576

Justification:

Product of 96 and 6 is 576 which is same number found by Brenda. So step 1 is correct.


Step 2: Find the total points scored: 92+110+85+78=365

Justification:

Sum of total points scored by Brenda is 92+110+85+78= 461.

But she got different value 365.

Hence step 2 is wrong.


<u>Hence final answer is B: Step 2.</u>

For f(x)= x+5 and g(x)=4x+2 <br> find (fog)(x) And (gof)(x)
Svetllana [295]

Composing functions means that the input of the outer functions is the output of the inner function.

In fact, you can rewrite the circle notation as

(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x)),\quad (g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))

So, we can substitute g(x) with its expression:

(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))=f(4x+2)

And since f(x)=x+5, we simply have to add 5 to its input:

f(4x+2)=(4x+2)+5=4x+7

Similarly, we have, substituting f with its expression,

(g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))=g(x+5)

And since g(x)=4x+2, we have to multiply the input by 4 and add 2:

g(x+5)=4(x+5)+2=4x+20+2=4x+22

How much of a spice that is 30% salt should be added to 175 ounces of a spice that is 65% salt in order to make a spice that is
klasskru [66]
\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&amount&concentration&&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;concentrated\\&#10;amount&#10;\end{array}\\&#10;&-----&-------&-------\\&#10;\textit{30\% spice}&x&0.30&0.30x\\&#10;\textit{65\% spice}&175&0.65&(175)(0.65)\\&#10;-----&-----&-------&-------\\&#10;mixture&x+175&0.50&(x+175)(0.50)&#10;\end{array}

so.. as you can see, we use the decimal notation for the percentages... 65% is just 65/100 and 50% is just 50/100 and so on

so.. whatever the salted amounts are, we know they'll add up to (x+175)(0.50)

thus  (0.30x) + (175)(0.65) = (x+175)(0.50)

solve for "x"
