Find f(x) and g(x) so that the function can be described as y = f(g(x)). y = 4/x^2+9

Mathematics

dlinn [17]3 years ago

I'm assuming all of (x^2+9) is in the denominator. If that assumption is correct, then,

One possible answer is f(x) = \frac{4}{x},  \ \ g(x) = x^2+9

Another possible answer is f(x) = \frac{4}{x+9}, \ \ g(x) = x^2

There are many ways to do this. The idea is that when we have f( g(x) ), we basically replace every x in f(x) with g(x)

So in the first example above, we would have

f(x) = \frac{4}{x}\\\\f( g(x) ) = \frac{4}{g(x)}\\\\f( g(x) ) = \frac{4}{x^2+9}

In that third step, g(x) was replaced with x^2+9 since g(x) = x^2+9.

Similar steps will happen with the second example as well (when g(x) = x^2)

A man sells a type of nut for $7 per pound and a different one for $4.20 per pound, how much of each type should be used to make
qwelly [4]

Answer:

a type nut is 10 pounds

a different one is 14 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

let a type of the nut be represented by t

Let a different one be represented by d

a type of nut cost $7 per pound

a different one cost $4.20 per pound

The cost of the mixture for 24 pounds = 5.37 * 24

= $128.88

t + d = 24 ........(1)

7t + 4.2d = 128.88 ..........(2)

From equation (1), t = 24 - d

Put t = 24 - d in equation 2

7(24 - d) + 4.2d = 128.88

168 - 7d + 4.2d = 128.88

168 - 2.8d = 128.88

-2.8d = 128.88 - 168

-2.8d = -39.12

d = -39.12 / -2.8

d= 13.97

d = 14 pounds

t = 24 - d

t = 24 - 14

t = 10 pounds

A type nut is 10 pounds. A different one is 14 pounds
