<span>The - before the 1 represents it is less, so the -1 will always be less than a, since the - is before the one, and so that means the 1 is less than a.</span>

-1 means to subtract 1, therefor whatever number you pick for a you subtract 1 therefore a will always be more

If f(x)=6x^2 and g(x)=14x + 4 solve (g o f)(2)<br> Choices:<br> 340<br> 465<br> 336<br> 284
Law Incorporation [45]

The answer is 340

Explanation:

(g o f)(2) = g(f(2))

f(2) = 6(2)² = 24

g(f(2)) = g(24) = 14(24) + 4 = 336 + 4 = 340

How does multiplying a vector by a scalar value of 2x change the vector?
GalinKa [24]
Recall that the direction of a vector can be seen from its slope, namely b/a.

let's take a peek at a couple of vectors, and multiply them by a scalar of 2.

hmmm say < 3 , 7 > , it has a slope of 7/3, now if we use a scalar of 2

2<3,7> => < 6 , 14 >, now, the slope of that is 14/6 which simplifies to, yeap, you guessed it, to 7/3, no change in the slope.

and say hmmmm < 11 , -2 >, slope of -2/11, let's multiply it by 2

2<11,-2> => <22 , -4 >, slope is -4/22 which simplifies to -2/11.

so, the vector's magnitude gets blown up, but the slope remains the same.
