48x0.2= $9.6
$48-9.6=$38.40 Her friend is incorrect.
40/48 =0.83 or about 83% So, in this case she only got 17% off. :)

Let f(x) = x ^ 2 and g(x) = x - 3 . Evaluate (g?f)(0).

nignag [31]

Answer:

$g(f(0))=-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=x^{2}$

$g(x)=x-3$

we know that

$(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))$

substitute the variable x in the function g(x) by the function f(x)

so

$g(f(x))=x^{2}-3$

Evaluate $g(f(0))$

For x=0

$g(f(0))=0^{2}-3$

$g(f(0))=-3$

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

391,660.6

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to do what is in the parentheses. 56/23 equals 2.4. 4234 + 2.4 is 4236.4... 4236.4 times 94 is 398,221.6... Now 9 to the fourth power is 6561. x + 6561 is 398,221.6 so x equals 391,660.6... I hope this helps and please make me the brainliest. Thanks!
