Functions & (f o g) (#)

Hello there!

I'm assuming since there is no question, that you want an explanation for composite functions.

Today, I want to introduce you to a very new way of looking at functions. Think of a function as a machine. I'll call this machine f. When you plug something into this machine, it is an x-value. The machine changes the x-value into a new value which is called a y-value. This is how a function works.

With composite functions though, things get a little bit tricky. To make f(g(x)), you need to plug in x into the g machine, and it will give you an output. (y-value) The next thing you do is take that y-value and plug it into the g machine. The g machine then gives you a new value. This value is f(g(x)).

Let's do an example together...
f(x)=3x and g(x)=x²+4
if we want f(g(x)), first plug in x to the g machine. when plugging in x to the g machine, we get x²+4 as given in the question.
Now we must plug in g(x) into the f machine. Since g(x) is x²+4, we just replace x with x²+4.
We get 3(x²+4)
This means that f(g(x))=3(x²+4)

NOTE: If you are seeking help with an actual question, please message me in the comments and I will assist you shortly!

I hope this helps!
Best wishes :)

What is the measurement of BC to the nearest centimeter?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

a   8

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given two sides and the included angle. Since you don't have any side and the opposite angle, you must use the law of cosines.

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc\cos A

a^2 = 5^2 + 11^2 - 2(5)(11)\cos 39^\circ

a^2 = 25 + 121 - 110\cos 39^\circ

a^2 = 60.51

a = 7.779

Answer: a = 8 cm
