Answer:

$300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that L is the amount of money Luisa had in the beginning, and C is the amount of money Connor had in the beginning.

C + L = 360

C - 2/5 C = L + 2/5 C

Simplifying the second equation:

3/5 C = L + 2/5 C

1/5 C = L

Substituting into the first equation:

C + 1/5 C = 360

6/5 C = 360

C = 300

Connor originally had $300, and Luisa $60.  Connor gave Luisa $120, and they both had $180.

Let f(x) = -­2x ­- 7 and g(x) = ­-4x + 3. Find (fog)(-­5)
Katyanochek1 [597]

ANSWER

( f \circ \: g)( - 5)= -53

EXPLANATION

The given functions are:

f(x) = -­2x ­- 7 and g(x) = ­-4x + 3

( f \circ \: g)(x) = f(g(x))

( f \circ \: g)(x) = f( - 4x + 3)

( f \circ \: g)(x) =  - 2( - 4x + 3) - 7

Expand:

( f \circ \: g)(x) =  8x  - 6 - 7

( f \circ \: g)(x) =  8x  - 13

We substitute x=-5

( f \circ \: g)( - 5) =  8( - 5) - 13 = -53
