Answer:

\large\boxed{(g\circ f)(2)=1296}

Step-by-step explanation:

(g\circ f)(x)=g\bigg(f(x)\bigg)\\\\f(x)=-x+8,\ g(x)=x^4\\\\(g\circ f)(x)=\g\bigg(f(x)\bigg)=(-x+8)^4\\\\(g\circ f)(2)\to\text{put x = 2 to the equation}\ (g\circ f)(x):\\\\(g\circ f)(2)=(-2+8)^4=(6)^4=1296

\bf \begin{cases} f(x)=&-x+8\\ g(x)=&x^4\\ (g\circ f)(x) =& g(~~f(x)~~) \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ f(2)=-(2)+8\implies f(2)=\boxed{6} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{(g\circ f)(2)}{g(~~f(2)~~)}\implies g\left( \boxed{6} \right) = (6)^4\implies \stackrel{(g\circ f)(2)}{g(6)} = 1296

A rocket is launched from the top of a 99-foot cliff with an initial velocity of 122 ft/s.
Harman [31]
Remember that c is the initial height. Since we the rocket is in a 99-foot cliff, c=99. Also, we know that the velocity of the rocket is 122 ft/s; therefore v=122
Lets replace the values into the the vertical motion formula to get:
0=-16 t^{2} +122t+99
Notice that the rocket hits the ground at the bottom of the cliff, which means that the final height is 99-foot bellow its original position; therefore, our final height will be h=-99
Lets replace this into our equation to get:
-99=-16 t^{2} +122t+99
-16 t^{2} +122+198=0

Now we can apply the quadratic formula t= \frac{-b+or- \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} where a=-16, b=122, and c=198
t= \frac{-122+or- \sqrt{ 122^{2}-(4)(-16)(198) } }{(2)(-16)}
t= \frac{-122+ \sqrt{27556} }{-32} or t= \frac{-122- \sqrt{27556} }{-32}
t= \frac{-122+166}{-32} or t= \frac{-122-166}{-32}
t= \frac{-11}{8} or t=9

Since the time can't be negative, we can conclude that the rocket hits the ground after 9 seconds.

Solve the equation. Check your solution.<br> 3x+4x-8=6<br> x= <br> ​(Simplify your​ answer.)
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

<h2>x=2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x

3x + 4x - 8 = 6

             +8    +8

3x + 4x = 6 + 8

Simplify

3x + 4x = 6 + 8

7x = 14

Divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = 14/7

x = 2
