X= 1st integer         x+2= 2nd integer
3x = 6(x+2)-6
distribute to get 3x=6x+12-6
12-6=6 so 3x=6x+6
subtract 6 from both sides to get 3x-6=6x
subtract 3x from both sides to get -6=6x-3x
subtract and get -6=3x
divide by three and x=-2 so x+2=0.

The value of m ∠ RPS is 64. 7°

<h3>What are collinear angles?</h3>

Collinear angles are angles formed when three or more points lie on the same straight line.

Note that angles on a straight line sum up to 180 degrees.

From the diagram given, we can see that the angles are collinear angles and thus sum up to 180 degrees;

  • m ∠QPS = 88°
  • m ∠ RPS = 5x + 34°
  • m ∠ QPR = 8x + 15°

m ∠QPS + m ∠ RPS + m ∠ QPR = 180°

88° + 5x + 34° + 8x + 15° = 180

collect like terms

5x + 8x = 180 - 137

Add like terms

13x = 43

Make 'x' the subject of formula

x = 43/ 7

x = 6. 14

m ∠ RPS = 5x + 34 = 5 ( 6. 14) + 34 = 30. 7 + 34 = 64. 7°

Thus, the value of m ∠ RPS is 64. 7°

If f(x) = -x^2 – 1, and<br> g(x) = x + 5, then<br> g(f (x)) = [? ]x^2+[ ]x + [ ]
inna [77]

Answer:

g(f(x)) = - x² + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate g(f(x)), substitute x = f(x) into g(x), that is

g(f(x))

= g(- x² - 1)

= - x² - 1 + 5

= - x² + 4
