80 because if you divide 24 by 3 and multiply it by 2, you get the second value (16), then divide 24 by 3 and multiply it by five, you get the third value (40). Then you add all three values (24,16,40) and you get 80

Answer:

<h3>80 sweets</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Sushil: Alex: Peter\\\:3\:\:\:\:\:\:\: \:\:\:\::\:\:2\:\:\:\:\::\:5\\\\Sushil = 24 \:sweets

Let the total number of sweets be x

3+2+5 =10\\\\=\frac{3}{10} \times x =24\\\\\frac{3x}{10} =\frac{24}{1} \\\\Cross\:Multiply\\\\3x\times 1 = 24\times 10\\\\3x = 240

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{240}{3} \\\\x =80\:sweets

Suppose that the function u and w are defined as follows.
mars1129 [50]

That funky circle in the middle is the composition of the function. It asks you to take a function as an input and to yield an output that's another function. It's one of the five function operations, along with adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing.

When you compose, you might find the notation w(u(x)) easier to understand. It's saying evaluate u then evaluate w.

For our functions, the compositions are:

u(w(x)) = u(2x²) = -(2x²) - 2 = -2x² - 2

w(u(x)) = w(-x - 2) = 2(-x - 2)² = 2(x² + 4x + 4) = =2x²+ 8x +8

Now we evaluate each composition at 4.

u(w(4)) = -2(4²) - 2 = -2(16) - 2 = -32 -2 = -34

w(u(4)) = -2(2²) +8(2) + 8 = -2(4) + 16 + 8 = -8 + 16 + 8 = 16.

Thus, u(w(4)) = -34 and w(u(4)) = 16.

Andy is wrong.

Add them up
12/20 + 5/20 = 17/20
17/20 is not equal to 4/9
