Answer:
1. g(3) = 1
2. (f + g)(2) = f(2) + g(2) = 2 + 3 = 5
3. f(g(4)) = 2
4. g(f(4)) = 1
5. f(f(4)) = 2
6. g(g(2)) = 1
7. base on the chart, the value 3 of g(x) can be gain only for x = 0
This is a quadratic equation with a general equation of ax^2 + bx + c.
The quadratic formula can help to get the roots of the equation. We know the highest degree of that equation is 2; so there will be also two roots.
The quadratic formula is
x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)] / 2a
With a = 1, b = 7, c = 2,
x = {-7 ± √[(7)^2 - 4(1)(2)]} / 2(1) = (-7 ± √41) / 2
So the two roots are
x1 = (-7 + √41) / 2 = -0.2984
x2 = (-7 - √41) / 2 = 0.2984
This is also another way of factorizing the equation
(x + 0.2984)(x + 0.2984) = x^2 + 7x + 2
8/15 x 5/6
•multiply across the numerator and denominator.
= 40/90
• then find a common factor that will go into both the numerator and denominator equally.
Common factor: 5
= 8/18
•there is another common factor, which is 2
Simplified:
=4/9
