If g(x) = x+1/ x-2 and h (x) =4 - x , what is the value of ( g*h) (-3)?

Lapatulllka [165]

<u>Answer:</u>

g (h (x) ) = 5/8

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following two functions and we are to find the value of $g ( h ( - 3 ) )$ :

$g ( x ) = \frac { x + 1 } { x + 2 }$

$h ( x ) = 4 - x$

Firstly, we need to find the function :

$g ( h ( x ) ) = \frac { ( 4 - x + 1 ) } { ( 4 - x - 2 ) } = \frac { 5 - x } { 2 - x }$

Now substituting the value $x=-3$ in it:

$g ( h ( x ) ) = \frac { 5 - (-3) } { 2 - (-3) }$

g (h (x) ) = 5/8

A teacher has been given £35 to spend on pencils and rulers.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Packet of 12 pencils = p
Packet of 30 rulers = r

p = £2.15
r = £6.00

£35 = 4r + xp
£35 = 4(£6.00) + x(£2.15)
£35 = £24 + £2.15x
£11 = £2.15x
x = 5.12

Since she can buy 5.12 packets of pencils, it is equal to 5 packets of pencils.
