Let f(x)=1/2 and g(x)= x^2+5x

For part a, you just have to compose the functions. Another way to write (f · g)(x) is f(g(x)), which means basically you take g(x) and let it be like a variable you plug into f(x). In your case, you look at f(x), and there isn't a variable there, so there's nothing you can compose because there's no x to plug g(x) into. (Unless you accidentally mistyped and there is supposed to be a variable in f(x). In that case, take g(x) and plug it in. For example, if f(x) = (1/2)x, (f · g)(x) would be (1/2)(x^2 + 5x).)

Anytime a question asks for domain and range, the first thing you want to ask yourself is if there's anything in either of your equations that limits the results. A pretty easy example of stuff that can "limit" a domain or range is something like 1/(x - 2), where x cannot equal 2, or else you'll be dividing by zero which will give you an error. Since there's nothing to compose with (f · g)(x) = 1/2, your domain will be (-∞, ∞) since it's a constant and when graphed, it'll extend forever. Your range is only one number, since 1/2 does not range above or below 1/2, but only sits exactly at 1/2. So your range is y = 1/2.

g A 5 foot tall man walks at 10 ft/s toward a street light that is 20 ft above the ground. What is the rate of change of the len
vredina [299]

Answer:

-\frac{10}{3}ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Height of man=5 foot

\frac{dy}{dt}=-10ft/s

Height of street light=20ft

We have to find the rate of change of the length of his shadow when he is 25 ft form the street light.

ABE and CDE are similar triangle because all right triangles are similar.

\frac{20}{5}=\frac{x+y}{x}

4=\frac{x+y}{x}

4x=x+y

4x-x=y

3x=y

3\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{dy}{dt}

\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{1}{3}(-10)=-\frac{10}{3}ft/s=-\frac{10}{3}ft/s

Hence, the rate of change of the length of his shadow when he is 25 ft from the street light=-\frac{10}{3}ft/s
