f(x) = 20x² - 18x - 25

f(-1) = 20(-1)² - 18(-1) - 25

= 20 + 18 - 25

= 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that you have a linear function so expect your equation to have this form:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. You are also given two points: P1(5, 6) and P2(14, 60). Use these points to solve for the slope m.

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (60 - 6)/(14 - 5)

= 54/9 = 6

So our equation now becomes

y = 6m + b

To solve for b, plug in the values of P1:

6 = 6(5) + b ---> b = -24

Therefore, our equation is

y = 6m - 24

The rest of the points are

(8, 24)

(11, 42)

If h(x)=(fog)(x) and h(x) = sqrt x+5, find g(x) if f(x) = sqrtx+2
Katen [24]

Answer: The value of g(x) is x+3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

h(x)=f\circ g(x)

Here,

h(x)=\sqrt{x+5}\\\\and\\\\f(x)=\sqrt{x+2}

We need to find the value of g(x):

f(x)=\sqrt{x+2}\\\\f(g(x))=\sqrt{g(x)+2}\\\\h(x)=\sqrt{g(x)+2}\\\\\sqrt{x+5}=\sqrt{g(x)+2}\\\\x+5=g(x)+2\\\\g(x)=x+5-2=x+3

Hence, the value of g(x) is x+3.

I NEED HELP PLEASE! :)<br> thanks!
torisob [31]

Since ΔABC ~ ΔEDC, ∠B = ∠D.

Since both triangles appear to be similar, the corresponding angles are the same, and corresponding sides are the same or have the same ratio.

We can write an equation to resemble the problem:

8x + 16 = 120

Solve for x.

8x + 16 = 120

~Subtract 16 to both sides

8x + 16 - 16 = 120 - 16

~Simplify

8x = 104

~Divide 8 to both sides

8x/8 = 104/8

~Simplify

x = 13

Therefore, the answer is 13.

Best of Luck!
