Answer:

10, 19 and 57

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be a, the second be b and the third be c

a+b+c=86

the second number is 9 less than the first

a=b+9------i

b=a-9

the third number is 3 times the first

c=3a------ii

a=c/3

therefore

b+9=c/3

c=3(b+9)

b+9+b+3(b+9)=86

b+9+b+3b+27=86

collecting like terms

5b=86-(27+9)

5b=86-36

5b=50

therefore

b=10

recall i to solve for a

a=b+9

a=10+9

a=19

recall ii to solve for c

c=3a

c=3*19

c=57

Using f(x) = 2x + 7 and g(x) = x - 3, find f(g(x)).
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

that's a hard question

we know that g(x)= x-3

so f(g(x))= f(x-3)

we put it in the equation :

f(x-3)= 2(x-3) +7 = 2x-6+7 = 2x +1
