f(x) = 5x − 1 and g(x) = 2x^2 + 1

(f × g)(x) = (5x − 1)(2x^2 + 1)

(f × g)(x) = 10x^3 - 2x^2 + 5x - 1

Substitute x = - 3

(f × g)(-3) = 10(-3)^3 - 2(-3)^2 + 5(-3) - 1

(f × g)(-3) = 10(-27) - 2(9) -15 - 1

(f × g)(-3) =-270 - 18 - 16

(f × g)(-3) = -236

Answer

- 236

Answer:

$P+Q=5x^2+4$

$Q-P=-x^2-4x+16$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

$P=3x^2+2x-6$

$Q=2x^2-2x+10$

Calculation of P+Q:

$P+Q=3x^2+2x-6+2x^2-2x+10$

now, we can combine like terms

$P+Q=3x^2+2x^2+2x-2x+10-6$

$P+Q=5x^2+0+4$

$P+Q=5x^2+4$

Calculation of Q-P:

$Q-P=2x^2-2x+10-(3x^2+2x-6)$

Firstly, we will distribute negative sign

$Q-P=2x^2-2x+10-3x^2-2x+6$

now, we can combine like terms

$Q-P=2x^2-3x^2-2x-2x+6+10$

$Q-P=-x^2-4x+16$

Jia is skipping a rock across a pond. The sequence {4.2, 3.57, 3.0345, 2.5793, …} describes the height of the rock on each succe

Answer:

$u_n=4.2(0.85)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$u_1=4.2\\u_2=3.57\\u_3=3.0345\\u_4=2.5793$

Geometric formula sequence: $u_n=ar^{(n-1)}$

(where $a$ is the first term of the sequence and $r$ is the common ratio)

To find the common ratio, divide one of the terms by the previous term:

$r=\frac{u_2}{u_1} =\frac{3.57}{4.2} =0.85$

From inspection, $a=4.2$

Therefore, $u_n=4.2(0.85)^{n-1}$
