Answer:

<h2>The answer is option A</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x - 2

g(x) = x²

In order to find (fog)(-1) we must first find (fog)(x)

To find (fog)(x) substitute the g(x) into f(x) that's for every x in f (x) replace it with

g (x).

That's

(fog)(x) = x² - 2

To find (fog)(-1) substitute the value of x that's - 1 into (fog)(x)

We have

(fog)(-1) = (-1)² - 2 = 1 - 2 = - 1

Hope this helps you

Answer:

  • See attachment for table values
  • y₁ = y₂ for x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case, put the x-value in the formula and do the arithmetic. If you're allowed, you can save some time and effort by realizing that the solution (x) will have to be an even number.

y₁ is an integer value for all integer values of x. y₂ is an integer value for even values of x only. y₁ and y₂ will both be integers (and possibly equal) only when x is even.

For example, for x = 6, we have

... y₁ = 3·6 - 8 = 18 -8 = 10

... y₂ = 0.5·6 +7 = 3 +7 = 10

That is, for x = 6, both columns of the table have the same number (10). That is, y₁ = y₂ for x = 6. The solution to the equation

... y₁ = y₂

is

... x = 6.

What is an equation for the line that passes through (-2,-3) with a slope of -1/2?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line use the point slope form of a line substituting m = -1/2 and the point (-2,-3).

y -y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y --3=-\frac{1}{2}(x--2)\\y+3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x+2)

Convert to standard form by applying the distributive property and rearranging the terms.

y + 3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x+2)\\y+3 = -\frac{1}{2}x -1\\2y + 6 = -x -2\\x+2y + 6 = -2\\x + 2y = -8

The equation x +2y = -8 is the same equation as 4y + 2x = -16 just doubled----> 2x + 4y = -16
