Answer:

f(g(9)) = 945/16

Step-by-step explanation:

To find f(g(x)), you have to substitute g(x) wherever there is an x in f(x).

g(x) = x + 3/4

f(x) = x² - 4x - 3

f(g(x)) = (x + 3/4)² - 4(x + 3/4) - 3

f(g(x)) = x² + 3/2x + 9/16 - 4x + 3 - 3

f(g(x)) = x² - 5/2x + 9/16 + 3 - 3

f(g(x)) = x² - 5/2x + 9/16

Now, put a 9 wherever there is an x in f(g(x)).

f(g(9)) = (9)² - 5/2(9) + 9/16

f(g(9)) = 81 - 5/2(9) + 9/16

f(g(9)) = 81 - 45/2 + 9/16

f(g(9)) = 117/2 + 9/16

f(g(9)) = 945/16

Write an equation for an ellipse centered at the origin, which has foci at (\pm8,0)(±8,0)left parenthesis, plus minus, 8, comma,
mario62 [17]

Answer:

The equation of the ellipse is \frac{x^{2}}{(17)^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{(15)^{2}}=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the equation of an ellipse with center (0 , 0) is

\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1 , where

  • The coordinates of the vertices are (± a , 0)  
  • The coordinates of the foci are (± c , 0) , where c ² = a² - b²  

∵ The ellipse is centered at the origin

∴ The center of it is (0 , 0)

∵ It has foci at (± 8 , 0)

- The coordinates of the foci are (± c , 0)

∴ c = ±8

∵ It has Vertices at (± 17 , 0)

- The coordinates of the vertices are (± a , 0)

∴ a = ±17

∵ c² = a² - b²

- Substitute the values of c and a to find b

∴ (8)² = (17)² - b²

∴ 64 = 289 - b²

- Add b² to both sides

∴ b² + 64 = 289

- Subtract 64 from both sides

∴ b² = 225

- Take √  for both sides

∴ b = ± 15

∵ The equation of the ellipse is \frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1

- Substitute the values of a and b in it

∴ \frac{x^{2}}{(17)^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{(15)^{2}}=1 ⇒ \frac{x^{2}}{289}+\frac{y^{2}}{225}=1  

∴ The equation of the ellipse is \frac{x^{2}}{(17)^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{(15)^{2}}=1

Hey there please help me with this question
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 2 + 1 = 3 parts , thus

81 cm² ÷ 3 = 27 cm² ← value of 1 part of the ratio

2 parts = 2 × 27 = 54 cm²

Area of A = 54 cm² and area of B = 27 cm²

The side of the original square = \sqrt{81} = 9 cm

The width of both rectangles is 9 cm ( width remains unchanged after cut )

Thus

Rectangle A

9 × length = 54 ( divide both sides by 9 )

length = 6 cm

Rectangle B

9 × length = 27 ( divide both sides by 9 )

length = 3 cm

Rectangle A → length = 6 cm, width = 9 cm

Rectangle B → length = 3 cm , width = 9 cm
