M + w = 48
m = 15w

15w + w = 48
16w = 48
w = 48/16
w = 3

m = 15w
m = 15(3)
m = 45 <==== there r 45 men

Just sub in (x+1) wherever x appears:
f(x) = 2x+4
f(x+1) = 2(x+1)+4 = 2x + 2 + 4 = 2x+6

Answer:

(h o k)(3) = 3

(k o h)(-4b) = -4b

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) and g(x) are inverses, then (f o g)(x) = (g o f)(x) = x

(h o k)(3) = 3

(k o h)(-4b) = -4b
