Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the value of the composite function (h o k)(2).
Since, (h o k)(x) = h[k(x)]
(h o k)(2) = h[k(2)]
From the picture attached,
At x = 2
k(2) = (-2)
Therefore, h[k(2)] = h(-2)
Since, h(x) = 
Therefore, h(-2) = 
= -3
(h o k)(2) = -3 is the answer.
Option (D) is the correct option.
Possible procedures:
1). peanut, peanut
2). peanut, cashew
3). peanut, pecan
4). cashew, peanut
5). cashew, cashew
6). cashew, pecan
7). pecan, peanut
8). pecan, cashew
9). pecan, pecan.
Nine (9) possible procedures.
But ...
(2) and (4) produce the same final result.
(3) and (7) produce the same final result.
(6) and (8) produce the same final result.
So there are only <em><u>six (6)</u></em> possible different outcomes.
The best thing to do is either to find a common denominator or convert them to decimals.
I will find a common denominator.
A common denominator of 3 and 5 is 15.
You multiply the first fraction by 5
2*5= 10
This then becomes 10/15
You then multiply the second by 3.
4*3= 12
Therefore, this becomes 12/15
As the second of these fractions is larger, this means that 4/5 is larger.
The alternative method is to put them into decimals, in which case 2/3= 0.66 and 4/5= 0.8
Hope this helps :)
