Solution

f(x) = -20 $x^{2}$ +14x + 12 and g(x) = 5x - 6.

(f/g)(x) = $\frac{f(x)}{g(y)}$

(f/g)(x) = $\frac{-20x^{2}+14x +12 }{5x - 6}$

Step 1: Now we have to factorize the numerator.

f(x) = -20x^2 + 14x + 12

Factor out -2, we get

= -2 (10x^2 - 7x - 6)

Now we can factorize 10x^2 - 7x - 6

f(x) = -2(2x + 1) (5x - 6)

Step 2: Plug in the factors

(f/g)(x) = $\frac{-2 (2x +1)(5x - 6)}{(5x - 6)}$

Step 3: Cancel out the common factor (5x - 6) from the numerator and the denominator, we get

(f/g)(x) = -2(2x +1) = -4x -2

Since -4x -2 is linear expression, the domain is all the real numbers.

Therefore, the answer is –4x – 2; all real numbers

Thank you :)

The equations and inequality expresses the relationship between the variables.

The correct responses are;

First part; The rule that represent the function is; y = 0.5·x - 1

Second part; the correct option is the inequality; 2·n - 6 ≥ 35

Third part; $\displaystyle \underline{b = \frac{- a\cdot x^2 - c}{x}}$

Fourth part; Table 4

Fifth part; $\displaystyle \underline{y < -\frac{1}{2} \cdot x - 4}$

Sixth part; 75·w + 55 ≤ 400

Reasons:

First part;

The difference between y-values following a change in 2 units of the x-value is a constant, and is equal to 1;

The rate of change of the function, m, is therefore;

$\displaystyle m = \frac{2 - 1}{6 - 4} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5$

The slope and intercept form of the equation of the function is therefore;

y - 3 = 0.5·(x - 8) = 0.5·x - 4

y = 0.5·x - 4 + 3 = 0.5·x - 1

The rule that represent the function is; y = 0.5·x - 1

Second part;

2·n represent twice the number

The difference between twice the number and 6 = 2·n - 6

At least 35 = ≥ 35

Therefore, the inequality is; 2·n - 6 ≥ 35

Third part;

The given quadratic equation is; a·x² + b·x + c = 0

Therefore;

$\displaystyle \underline{b = \frac{-c - a\cdot x^2}{x}}$

Fourth part;

The best correct option is table 4, given that the table is as follows;

$\begin{tabular}{|c|cc|}In&&Out\\Not clear&&\\9&&17\\10&&19\end{array}\right]$

Fifth part;

The y-intercept of the graph is -0.5

The slope is -4 ÷ 8 = -0.5

Therefore, the equation is; y = -0.5·x - 4

The shaded area is the area lower than the y-values, with broken lines (indicating < relationship) which gives, the correct inequality as follows;

$\displaystyle \underline{y < -\frac{1}{2} \cdot x - 4}$

Sixth part;

The amount Jordan part-time job pays = $75

The amount he has already saved = $55

The cost of the iPhone = $400

Let w represent the number of weeks Jordan works, at his part-time job to purchase the iPhone, we have;

75·w + 55 ≤ 400

Mr.Hollins determines that he gives away $800 each month. If he gives away 16% of his budget, how much is his overall budget?

oee [108]

$\frac{800}{x} = \frac{16\%}{100\%} \\ \frac{80000}{16} = \frac{16x}{16} \\ 5000 = x$

Name a pair of complementary angles and a pair of supplementary angles

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m<POQ + m<SOR = 90º. This makes these two angles complementary.

m<POQ + m<QOR + m<SOR = 180º. This is because the measure of a straight line is 180º.

hope this helps, reach out if you have more questions!

Find the exact circumference of a circle with diameter equal to 8 ft. 8 ft. 16 ft. 64 ft.

maria [59]

ANSWER

8π ft

EXPLANATION

The circumference of a circle is calculated using the formula C=πd.

Where d=8 is the diameter of the circle.

We substitute d=8 into the formula to obtain,

C=8π ft.

Because we are looking for the exact circumference, we leave the answer in terms of π.

Function h has the largest y-intercept which is 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Any linear function is represented in the form

$f(x) = mx+b$

Here b is the y-intercept of the linear function i.e. the constant term in the function.

We will compare all the functions with the general form we get

y-intercept of f(x) = 1

y-intercept of g(x) = 8

y-intercept of h(x) = 44

y-intercept of j(x) = 0

Hence,

Function h has the largest y-intercept which is 44
