The length of the shorter wire is 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the 27 cm wire is cut into two pieces of length x cm and so the longer part would be x+3 cm.

Now we know that the total length of the wire is 27cm so

x+(x+3) = 27

2x+3 = 27

2x = 27-3

2x = 24

x = 12 cm

F(h(x)) means wherever you see x in the f(x) function you're gonna plug in the h(x) function:
f(h(x)) = (2x + 3) - 7
= 2x + 3 - 7
= 2x - 4

If f(x) = 2x - 6 and g(x) = 3x + 9, find (f+g)(x)
valina [46]

Answer:

(f+g)(x)  =  5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x - 6 and g(x) = 3x + 9, find (f+g)(x)

(f+g)(x) = f  + g  =  (2x - 6)  + (3x + 9) =   5x + 3

(f+g)(x) = f  + g  =  5x + 3
