mestny [16]

Answer:

(h o k)(3) = 3

(k o h)(-4b) = -4b

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) and g(x) are inverses, then (f o g)(x) = (g o f)(x) = x

(h o k)(3) = 3

(k o h)(-4b) = -4b

Diane works at a gardening store, and today she is helping assemble gas trimmers to be sold. An employee from an earlier shift a
Oxana [17]

The linear function for the number of trimmers assembled is:

y = 7 + 4x.

--------------------------------

A linear function has the following format:

y = ax + b

In which:

  • a is the rate of change.
  • b is the fixed amount.

--------------------------------

  • In an earlier shift, 7 trimmers had already been produced, thus 7 is the fixed amount, that is, b = 7.
  • Diane assembles 4 trimmers per hour, thus the rate of change is 4, that is, a = 4
  • The <u>amount of trimmers y produced after x hours</u> is given by:

y(x) = 4x + 7
