Answer:
1. Last option
2. third option
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Each term is formed by multiplying the previous one by 3
so its 729, 2187
2. Working from right to left we multiply by 5 so its 500.
B is the y-intercept. in this example, b=50
The resulting composite function (f∘f)(x) is x⁴+2x²+2
When a function is written inside another function, it is known as a composite function
Given the function f(x)=x²+1,
(f∘f)(x) = f(f(x))
f(f(x)) = f(x²+1)
This means we will need to replace x with x²+1 in f(x) as shown:
f(x²+1) = (x²+1)²+1
Expand
f(x²+1) = x⁴+2x²+1+1
f(x²+1) = x⁴+2x²+2
Hence the resulting composite function (f∘f)(x) is x⁴+2x²+2

X equals 7.1 if you round to the nearest tenth
2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5
This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.
