Given g(x)=Squareroot x-4 and h(x)=2x-8, what is g(h(10))

yan [13]

Answer:

$g(h(10)) = 2\sqrt 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$g(x) = \sqrt {x - 4$

$h(x) = 2x - 8$

Required

$g(h(10))$

First, calculate $g(h(x))$

We have:

$g(x) = \sqrt {x - 4$

This gives:

$g(h(x)) = \sqrt {h(x) - 4$

Substitute $h(x) = 2x - 8$

$g(h(x)) = \sqrt {2x - 8 - 4$

$g(h(x)) = \sqrt {2x - 12$

Substitute $x = 10$

$g(h(10)) = \sqrt {2*10 - 12$

$g(h(10)) = \sqrt {20 - 12$

$g(h(10)) = \sqrt {8\\$

Split

$g(h(10)) = \sqrt {4} * \sqrt 2$

This gives

$g(h(10)) = 2\sqrt 2$

Using the image below, where would the coordinates of point A be if the triangle was translated by ⟨x−4,y+3⟩?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(-9,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

so we are going to take the original coordinates (-5,1) and to the operation that the question wants us to do (x-4,y+3) by subsitituing the variables in so we get (-5-4,1+3)

Answer: (-9,4)
