Answer:

Joe shoveled 6

Jim shoveled 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Joe: x

Jim: 2x - 3

x + 2x - 3 = 15

3x - 3 = 15

3x = 18

x = 6 = How many Joe shoveled

Then lastly, do 15 - 6 which gives you 9 for Jim

State two numbers such that the grader number is 75% more than the lesser number

Marianna [84]

75% is equal to 3/4. So the easiest way to do this is to make the smaller number a multiple of 4. Let's say the smaller number is 8. To find the larger number, you must take 75% of 8 and then add it to 8. 1/4 of 8 equals 8 divided by 4, which is 2. Therefore, 3/4 of 8 is 6. 8 + 6 = 14.

Thus, your two numbers could be 8 and 14.

On a map, the distance between two towns is 3.4 inches. The map scale is 2 inches: 25 miles. What is the actual distance between

Mariulka [41]

For this question we can solve it by setting up a proportion:

$\frac{2inches}{25 miles}= \frac{3.4inches}{x}$

Now we can solve for x to find the total distance between the towns. Let's cross multiply and solve for x:

$2x=85$
$x=42.5miles$

So now we know that the total distance between the towns is 42.5 miles.

Given the functions k(x) = 2x2 − 7 and p(x) = x − 4, find (k ∘ p)(x). (k ∘ p)(x) = 2x2 − 8x + 16 (k ∘ p)(x) = 2x2 − 16x + 32 (k

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

k(x) = 2x² - 7

p(x) = x - 4

To find (k ∘ p)(x) substitute p(x) into k(x),

that's replace any x in k(x) by p(x)

We have

(k ∘ p)(x) = 2(x - 4)² - 7

Expand

(k ∘ p)(x) = 2( x² - 8x + 16) - 7

= 2x² - 16x + 32 - 7

Simplify

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
