Lets say the number of adult tickets is x. This means the number of student tickets is 2x. So, 2x + x = 285, or 3x =285. The means x = 95. So the number of adult tickets sold is 95.

Able, ben and cal each played a game.
iragen [17]

Answer:

Ratio of Able's score to Ben=6:1

Ratio of Ben's score to Cal's=1:2

Ratio of able's score to ben;s score to cal's score=6:1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ben's score =x

Able scored six times Ben's score

Able=6*x

=6x

Cal scored a third of Able's score

Cal=1/3 of 6x

=1/3(6x)

Ratio of Able's score to Ben

6x:x

=6:1

Ratio of Ben's score to Cal's score

x:1/3(6x)

=x:6x/3

=x:2x

=1:2

Ratio of able's score to ben;s score to cal's score=6:1:2

The spending limit on John’s credit card is given by the function f(x)=15,000+1.5x , where x is his monthly income. f^-1x . The
Katena32 [7]
<span>1.
"The spending limit on John’s credit card is given by the function f(x)=15,000+1.5x"

means that if the monthly income of John is $ 5,000 ,he can spend at most 

f(5,000)=15,000+1.5*5,000=15,000+ 7,500=22, 500 (dollars)

Or for example

if Johns monthly income is $8,000, then he can spend at most

 </span>f(8,000)=15,000+1.5*8,000=15,000+ 12,000=27,000 (dollars)<span>


2.
Now, assume that the maximum amount that John can spend is y.

Then, y=15,000+1.5x

we can express x, the monthly income, in terms of y by isolating x:

</span>y=15,000+1.5x
<span>
1.5x = y-15,000


</span>x= \frac{y-15,000}{1.5}
<span>
thus, in functional notation, x, the monthly income, is a function , say g, of variable y, the max amount:

</span>x=g(y)=\frac{y-15,000}{1.5}

since we generally use the letter x for the variable of a function, we write g again as:

g(x)=\frac{x-15,000}{1.5}
<span>
for example :

</span>g(50,000)=\frac{50,000-15,000}{1.5}= \frac{35,000}{1.5}= 23,333
<span>
tells us that if the maximum amount that John can spend is 50,000 $, then his monthly income is 23,333 $.

3.

If John's limit is $60,000, his monthly income is 

</span>g(60,000)=\frac{60,000-15,000}{1.5}= \frac{45,000}{1.5}=30,000<span>
 dollars.


Answer: $ 30,000

Remark: g is called the inverse function of f, since it undoes what f does.

instead of g(x), we could use the notation </span>f ^{-1}(x)<span>

Drag the expressions to the correct functions. Not all expressions will be used.
postnew [5]

The function composition exists an operation " ∘ " that brings two functions f and g, and has a function h = g ∘ f such that h(x) = g(f(x)).

Let the functions be f(x) = 4x² + 1 and g(x) = x² - 3

The correct answer is (f o g)(x) = 4x⁴ - 96x + 37 and

(g o f)(x) = 16x⁴ + 8x² - 2.

<h3>What is composition function?</h3>

The function composition exists an operation " ∘ " that brings two functions f and g, and has a function h = g ∘ f such that h(x) = g(f(x)). In this operation, the function g exists used for the outcome of applying the function f to x.

Given:

f(x) = 4x² + 1 and g(x) = x² - 3

a) (f o g)(x) = f[g(x)]

f[g(x)] = 4(x² - 3)² + 1

substitute the value of g(x) in the above equation, and we get

    = 4(x⁴ - 24x + 9) + 1

simplifying the above equation

    = 4x⁴ - 96x + 36 + 1

    = 4x⁴ - 96x + 37

(f o g)(x) = 4x⁴ - 96x + 37

b) (g o f)(x) = g[f(x)]

substitute the value of g(x) in the above equation, and we get

g[f(x)] = (4x² + 1)²- 3

      = 16x⁴ + 8x² + 1 - 3

simplifying the above equation

      = 16x⁴ + 8x² - 2

(g o f)(x) = 16x⁴ + 8x² - 2.

Therefore, the correct answer is (f o g)(x) = 4x⁴ - 96x + 37 and

(g o f)(x) = 16x⁴ + 8x² - 2.
