-16 + 3n = -(8 + 5n)

The - sign outside the parentheses acts as a -1, and so it is distributed to each term in the parentheses.

-16 + 3n = -8 - 5n

+16

3n = 8 - 5n

+5n

8n = 8

n = 1

F(x)= 5x^2+6, g(x)= 7x find (f o g)(x), find (g o f)(x), find f(g(-4)), fine g(f(5))

KiRa [710]

$(f o g)(x) = 245x^2+6\\(g o f)(x) = 5x^2+42\\ f(g(-4)) = 3926\\g(f(5)) = 917$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 5x^2+6\\g(x) = 7x$

$(f o g)(x) = 5(7x)^2+6\\= 5(49x^2)+6\\=245x^2+6\\(g o f)(x) = 7(5x^2+6)\\= 35x^2+42\\(fog(x))=245x^2+6f(g(-4)) = 245(-4)^2+6 \\=245(16)+6\\=3920+6\\=3926\\g(f(x)) = 35x^2+42\\g(f(5)) = 35(5)^2+42\\=35(25)+42\\=875+42\\=917$

Hence,

$(f o g)(x) = 245x^2+6\\(g o f)(x) = 5x^2+42\\ f(g(-4)) = 3926\\g(f(5)) = 917$

A market research team compiled the following discrete probability distribution, where X represents the number of automobiles ow

rodikova [14]

Answer:

The standard deviation of X is 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following distribution:

x: 0 1 2 3

P(x): 0.3 0.5 0.2 0.4

We have to find the standard deviation of X.

Formula:

$E(x) = \displaystyle\sum x_iP(x_i)\\\\E(x) =0(0.3) + 1(0.5) + 2(0.2) + 3(0.4)\\\\E(x) = 2.1\\\\E(x^2) = \displaystyle\sum x_i^2P(x_i)\\\\E(x^2) =0(0.3) + 1(0.5) + 4(0.2) + 9(0.4)\\\\E(x^2) = 4.9\\\\Var(x) = E(x^2) - (E(x))^2 = 4.9-(2.1)^2 = 0.49\\\\\sigma(x) = \sqrt{Var(x)} =\sqrt{0.49} = 0.7$

Thus, the standard deviation of X is 0.7
