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

Kelsey says that to solve the equation 3x + 6 = 24, the first step should be to subtract 6 from each side of the equation. Dana
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Kelsey is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the rules when solving an equation is that you need to isolate the variable, meaning that it just needs to be x by itself. To do that, you would need to start by subtracting 6. If you were to divide by 3 first, the answer would be twice what it should be.

You ride your bike x miles per hour up a mountain for 45 minutes. On the way down the mountain, you ride your bike 3 miles per h
denpristay [2]

Answer:

18/5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let d be the mountain dist path

upward biking

x miles - 1 hr

d 45 mins

3x/4 = d

riding down

x+3 - 60 min

d. - 20

(1/3)(x+3) = d

(x+3)/3 = 3x/4

4x+12 = 9x

x = 12/5

d =( 12*3)/(4*5)= 9/5

upward+downward = 2*(9/5) = 18/5
