His work should have looked like this.

2x + y = 5
x − 2y = 10

y = 5 − 2x
x − 2(5 − 2x) = 10
x − 10 + 4x = 10
5x − 10 = 10 When he added in both sides, he subtracted 10 from 10,
5x = 20 instead of adding 10 from 10 to make 20.
x = 4
2(4) + y = 5
8 + y = 5

y = -3

Given f(x) = √x and g(x) = x+2 find the domain of f(g(x)).

Answer:

E) None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

Given $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$ and $g(x)=x+2$ , then $f(g(x))=\sqrt{x+2}$ . This shifts the graph of the parent function $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$ 2 units to the left. Thus, the domain of the function is $[-2,\infty)$ , making none of the above true.

The expression x( x - 4 ) when expanded is x² - 4x

An expression, often known as a mathematical expression, is a finite collection of symbols that are well-formed in accordance with context-dependent principles.

When a bracket is expanded, each term is multiplied by the expression outside of the bracket.

The distributive property states that multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number yields the same outcome as multiplying each addend separately by the number and combining the resulting products.

Consider the expression,

x( x - 4 )

Let us assume y = x( x - 4 )

Using the distributive property, a( b + c ) = ab + ac

y = x( x - 4 )

y = x · x - x · 4

y = x² - 4x

Therefore, x( x - 4 ) = x² - 4x

Therefore, the expression when expanded is x² - 4x.
