You should try both points
put x=5/2 and y=3
5-2=3
the first one is on the graph
put x=3/2 and y=20
3-40/3≠3
the second one is not on the graph
Whatever is inside parentheses first [g(x)], is what you would evaluate first, then after that, you would substitute that answer into the f(x) function for EVERY "X" YOU SEE:
[2x² + 5]² + [2x² + 5] + 2
[2x² + 5]² + [2x² + 7]↓
This is your final answer. You get it?
I will only be writing the reasons for each and you can respond if you need clarification for anything:
1. given
2. opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent (and a rectangle is a parallelogram so the properties apply)
3. def rectangle
4. SAS (side angle side congruence theorem)
5. CPCTC (congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent)
Given:
In a circle, two chords CE and DU intersect each other inside the circle at B.
Measure of arc CD = 185 degrees.
Measure of arc EU = 55 degrees.
To find:
The measure of angle CBD.
Solution:
Intersecting chords theorem: According to this theorem, if two chords intersect each other inside the circle then the measure of angle on the intersection is half of the sum of intercepted arcs.
Using Intersecting chords theorem, we get
Therefore, the measure of angle CBD is 120 degrees.
