length: m

less means "subtract", than means "reverse the order", triple means "times 3"

width: 3m - 5

Please list a reason why scientific notation is important thank youuu !!

otez555 [7]

The primary reason why scientific notation is important is that it allows us to convert very large or very small numbers into much more manageable sizes. When these numbers are in scientific notation, it is much easier to work with them

Determine the domain of the function (fog)(x) where f(x)=3x-1/x-4 and g(x)=x+1/x

Katarina [22]

Answer: (-∞,-1) ∪ (0,+∞)

Step-by-step explanation: The representation fog(x) is a representation of composite function, meaning one depends on the other.

In this case, fog(x) means:

fog(x) = f(g(x))

fog(x) = $3(x+\frac{1}{x} )-\frac{1}{x+\frac{1}{x} } -4$

$fog(x)=3x+\frac{3}{x} -\frac{1}{\frac{x^{2}+x}{x} } -4$

$fog(x)=3x+\frac{3}{x} -\frac{x}{x^{2}+x} -4$

$fog(x)=\frac{3x^{2}(x^{2}+x)+3(x^{2}+x)-x-4x(x^{2}+x)}{x(x^{2}+x)}$

$fog(x)=\frac{3x^{4}+3x^{3}+3x^{2}+3x-x-4x^{3}+4x^{2}}{x(x^{2}+x)}$

$fog(x)=\frac{3x^{4}-x^{3}-x^{2}+2x}{x(x^{2}+x)}$

This is the function fog(x).

The domain of a function is all the values the independent variable can assume.

For fog(x), denominator can be zero, so:

$x(x^{2}+x) \neq 0$

If x = 0, the function doesn't exist.

$x^{2}+x \neq0$

$x(x+1) \neq0$

$x+1\neq0$

$x\neq-1$

<u>Therefore, the domain of this function is: </u><u>-∞ < -1 or x > 0</u>

Tan^2x+sec^2x=1 for all values of x. <br> true or false?

amid [387]

This is not true.

$\tan^2x+\sec^2x=\dfrac{\sin^2x}{\cos^2x}+\dfrac1{\cos^2x}=\dfrac{1-\cos^2x+1}{\cos^2x}=2\sec^2x-1$

$2\sec^2x-1=1\implies\sec^2x=1\implies\sec x=\pm1\implies x=n\pi$

where is $n$ is any integer. So suppose we pick some value of $x$ other than these, say $x=\dfrac\pi4$ . Then

$\tan^2\dfrac\pi4+\sec^2\dfrac\pi4=1+2=3\neq1$
