Given: f(x) = x - 7 and h(x) = 2x + 3<br> Write the rule for f(h(x)).
sdas [7]
<h3>Answer:  f( h(x) ) = 2x - 4</h3>

Work Shown:

f(x) = x - 7

f( h(x) ) = h(x) - 7

f( h(x) ) = 2x+3 - 7

f( h(x) ) = 2x - 4

Explanation:

In the second step, I replaced every x with h(x). In the next step, I replaced the h(x) on the right hand side with 2x+3. From there I combined like terms.

Find the center and the radius of the circle with the equation: <br> x2+6x+y2+4y+12=0
Andrews [41]

Answer:

centre = (- 3, - 2) , radius = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Given

x² + 6x + y² + 4y + 12 = 0 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

x² + 6x + y² + 4y = - 12

Use the method of completing the square on the x and y terms

add ( half the coefficient of the x/ y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(3)x + 9 + y² + 2(2)y + 4 = - 12 + 9 + 4

(x + 3)² + (y + 2)² = 1 ← in standard form

with centre = (- (- 3), - (- 2)) and r² = 1, that is

centre = (- 3, - 2) and radius = 1

The sum of two numbers is 87. if three times the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number the result is seven. find t
Stolb23 [73]
\left \{ {{a+b=87} \atop {a-3b=7}} \right.&#10;&#10;

a-3b=7
a=7+3b

a+b=87
(7+3b)+b=87
7+4b=87
4b=87-7
4b=80
b=20

a=7+3b
a=7+3*20
a=7+60
a=67

Can someone help me with number 10
AveGali [126]

Answer:

No they don't show direct variation because if you get y alone, the equation you get is in slope intercept form instead of direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation

direct variation: y=kx

y-x=4

 +x     +x

y= 4+x

Not Direct Variation
