Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let the small number be x
Then, the bug number will be: x + 25
Therefore, x + x + 25 = 131
2x + 25 = 131
2x = 131 - 25
2x = 106
x = 106 / 2
x = 53
Small number= 53
Big number = x + 25 = 53 + 25 = 78
2. Let the small number be x
Then, the bug number will be: x + 14
x + x + 14 = 58
2x + 14 = 58
2x = 58 - 14
2x = 44
x = 44/2
x = 22
Small number = 22
Bug number = 22 + 14 = 36
The numbers are 22 and 36.
3. Let number of basketball sold be x
Therefore, number of football sold will be x+3.
Therefore, x + x + 3 = 27
2x + 3 = 27
2x = 27 - 3
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12
12 basketball were sold
Number of footballs sold = 12 + 3 = 15
4. Let calories in bowl of soup x
Hamburger = 2 × x = 2x
Therefore, x + 2x = 738
3x = 738
x = 738/3
x = 246
There are 246 calories in bowl of soup
Calories in hamburgers = 246 × 2 = 492 calories
Hey!

The answer is a. -7
1. Find g(2).
2. Find f(g(2)).
g(x) = x² - 6x - 7
x = 2 ⇒ g(2) = ?
g(2) = 2² - 6·2 - 7 = 4 - 12 - 7 = -15
2. f(x) = x + 8
g(2) = -15
f(g(2)) = f(-15) = -15 + 8 = -7

Answer:
68/99
Step-by-step explanation:
.68686868686 repeating
Let x= .68686868668repeating
Multiply by 100
100x = 68.686868686repeating
Subtract x = .68686868repeating from this equation
100x = 68.686868686repeating
-x = .68686868repeating
------------------------------------------
99x = 68
Divide each side by 99
99x / 99 = 68/99
x = 68/99
