Answer:
4x^2 - 4x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x - 1
g(x) = x^2 - 4
g(f(x)) = ?
[substitute the x of g(x) with f(x)]
g(x) = x^2 - 4
g(f(x)) = (2x - 1)^2 - 4
[solve]
[binomial * binomial = quadratic equation]
[use FOIL method (first, outer, inner, last)]
g(f(x)) = (2x - 1)(2x - 1) - 4
g(f(x)) = (2x*2x) + (-2x) + (-2x) + (1) - 4
[combine like terms]
g(f(x)) = 4x^2 - 2x - 2x + 1 - 4
g(f(x)) = 4x^2 - 4x - 3
Answer:
Rate of change = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
y − 3 = −12(x + 4)
Expanding, we have;
y - 3 = -12x - 48
y = -12x - 48 + 3
y = -12x - 45
Now, formula for rate of change is;
Rate of change = (y(x + h) - y)/h
y(x + h) is; y = -12(x + h) - 45
This gives;
Rate of change = (-12(x + h) - 45 + 12x + 45)/h
Rate of change = (-12x - 12h - 45 + 12x + 45)/h
Rate of change = -12h/h
Rate of change = -12
