Answer:

Option # C: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Decision variables, as the name imply are entities that can have different values in the given scenario and which in turn produce different outcomes. For our question, the variables are the sizes of TVs available, as the production time and profit depend on the sizes. Hence, TV sizes (i.e. 5) are our decision variables.

Furthermore, it does not matter on which machine the TVs are being manufactured as they will take identical time for same TV size. Thus we do not consider the number of machines as our decision variables.

For f(x)=3x+1 and g(x)=x^2-6 find (fog)(4)
m_a_m_a [10]
F(x) = 3x+1
G(x) = X^2 - 6
F(G(x)) = F(X^2 - 6) = 3(X^2 - 6) + 1 = 3X^2 - 18 + 1 = 3X^2 -17
F(G(x)) = 3X^2 - 17

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

{ \tt{f(x) = 3( {8)}^{x} + 6 }}

• For f(0), substitute x with zero:

{ \tt{f(0) = 3( {8)}^{0}  + 6}} \\  \\ { \tt{f(0) = (3 \times 1) + 6}} \\  \\ { \tt{f(0) = 3 + 6}} \\  \\ { \boxed{ \tt{ \: f(0) = 9 \: }}}
