(p of q)(x) means that q(x) is inserted into p(x).
p(q(x)) = 2(x - 3)^2 - 4
Expand (x - 3)^2.
p(q(x)) = 2(x^2 - 6x + 9) - 4
p(q(x)) = 2x^2 - 12x + 14
(2n +1) + (2n + 3) + (2n + 5) = 51
6n + 9 = 51
6n = 42
n = 7
numbers are 15 17 and 19
Answer:
c = 42.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The legs of the triangle are a and b and the hypotenuse is c
Let a be the shorter leg
The hypotenuse is 5 more than the longest leg
c = b+5
The shortest leg is 20
a = 20
We can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 +b^2 = c^2
Substituting in what we know from above
20 ^2 + b^2 = (b+5)^2
FOIL (b+5)^2 = b^2 +5b+5b +25 = b^2+10b+25
400 + b^2 = b^2+10b+25
Subtract b^2 from both sides
400+b&2-b^2 = b^2 -b^2 +10b+25
400 = 10b+25
Subtract 25 from both sides
400-25 = 10b+25-25
375 = 10b
Divide by 10
375/10 = 10b/10
37.5 = b
But we want to find c
c=b+5
c = 37.5+5
c = 42.5
For this equation, you want to do it in fractions/ratios to properly solve it. You would have his average misses out of every field goal and his real missed attempts over total. It would look like this

=

You want to solve for x since x is the total amount of field goals that he attempted. You can do this by doing cross multiplication:
(2)(x) = (8)(11)
From here you can get:
2x = 88
Divide each side by 2 to isolate x and you get:
x= 44
So he made a total of 44 field goals.
Answer: The third one
Step-by-step explanation: We can eliminate the first one right off the bat sinc we see that -4 has two outputs. Next, the graph's equation has no slope (x=3) so the input is all the same. Thirdly, the table shows a relationship between x and y and the numbers don't have a pattern that shows more than one output or input for a number. The fourth option are simply coordinates, it doesn't particularly tell us that all the coordinates are related to each other.
