Hello there!

Given F(x)=x-5 and G(x)=x^2 you want to find F(F(x)).

In order to do this, you don't need to know what G(x) is. Just put F into F...

F(x)=x-5
F(x-5)=x-5-5
F(F(x))=x-10

This is the question that you asked, but the photo makes it look like they want you to do G(F(x)) so I will do that one too.

G(x)=x^2
G(x-5)=(x-5)^2
THEREFORE...
G(F(x))=(x-5)^2

A is the answer!

EXPLANATION:
Remember that a function is like a machine. F(x) is a machine and G(x) is also a machine. Plugging F into G is basically taking the output of the F machine and putting it into the G machine.

I really hope this helps! If you need a more detailed explanation, feel free to message me.
BEST WISHES:)

Which of the following theorems verifies that ABC ~ STU?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

B. AA

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram given shows that two angles in ∆ABC are congruent to two corresponding angles in ∆STU.

Invariably, the third unknown angle of both triangles would also be equal going by the third angle theorem.

Thus, based on the AA Similarity Theorem which says that two triangles are similar to each other if two corresponding angles of one is congruent to two angles in the other, ∆ABC ~ ∆STU.

Brianna bought snacks for her team's practice. She bought a bag of oranges for $2.72 and a 20-pack of juice bottles. The total c
posledela

Answer:

each bottle was $2.12 :P

Step-by-step explanation:

➼start by making an equation to find the price of the juice pack, in this case x would be the price of the juice pack because its unknown, the juice pack price(x) added to the price of the oranges(2.72) and equal the total(45.12), the before tax part is not needed info

2.72 + x = 45.12

➼now our aim to get x alone to find out its worth so we will have to do the opposite and subtract 2.72 from everything, since its positive

2.72-2.72=0 crosses out

45.12-2.72=42.4

➼which gets us x = 42.4 so one 20 pack is 42.40 dollars but we arent done yet, to find out the price of EACH bottle we must divide 42.4 by 20!

42.4/20=2.12

➼so to sum it up, each bottle is $2.12 :)

Serggg [28]

Answer:

\frac{2(x + 4)}{3} - 8 = 32

\frac{2(x + 4) - 8(3)}{3}  = 32

2(x + 4) - 24 = 96

2x + 8  - 24 = 96

2x = 96 + 24 - 8

2x = 112

x = 56

At what point does the line given by the following equation cross the y-axis?
QveST [7]
Pretty sure the answer is D:

Because the equation is in the format y=mx+c (c being the y intercept), we know that the y intercept (or where the line will cross the y axis) will be -9.

B also says -9 but we have to be careful because it states that the x axis is -9 rather than the y axis.

Hope that helped you understand.
