Answer: (f·g)(x) = -5x³ - 31x² + 62x + 18

(f·g)(-1) = -70

(fog)(x) = 25x² - 130x + 155

(fog)(-1) = 310

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² + 8x + 2 g(x) = -5x + 9

(f·g)(x) = (x² + 8x + 2)(-5x + 9)

= -5x³ + 9x²

- 40x² + 72x

- 10x + 18

= -5x³ - 31x² + 62x + 18

(f·g)(-1)= -5(-1)³ - 31(-1)² + 62(-1) + 18

= -5(-1) - 31(1) - 62 + 18

= 5 - 31 - 62 + 18

= -70

****************************************************************************************

(fog)(x) = (-5x + 9)² + 8(-5x + 9) + 2

= 25x² - 90x + 81

- 40x + 72

+ 2

= 25x² - 130x + 155

(fog)(-1) = 25(-1)² - 130(-1) + 155

= 25 + 130 + 155

= 310

It wasn't clear if you wanted multiplication or composition so I solved both.

What does the dotted line in the diagram imply about the number of triangles you can construct from the given information

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:A triangle is aptly named: it is composed of three (tri) angles formed by three non-coincident, non-parallel lines. That the lines are non-coincident means they do not overlap, and that they are non-parallel means that each line intersects with every other line. Correspondingly, a triangle also has three sides.

There are 740 tickets purchased for a Major League Baseball game. The lower reserved tickets cost $9.50 and the upper reserve co

artcher [175]

375 lower reserved tickets were purchased and 365 upper reserved tickets were purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number lower reserved tickets

and

y be the number of upper reserved tickets

Then according to given statements

$x+y = 740\ \ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\9.50x+8y = 6482.50\ \ \ \ Eqn\ 2$

From equation 1:

$x = 740-y$

Putting in equation 2

$9.5(740-y)+8y = 6482.50\\7030-9.5y+8y = 6482.50\\7030-1.5y = 6482.50$

Subtracting 7030 from both sides

$7030-7030-1.5y = 6482.50-7030\\-1.5y=-547.5$

Dividing both sides by -1.5

$\frac{-1.5y}{-1.5} = \frac{-547.5}{-1.5}\\y = 365$

Putting y = 365 in equation 1

$x+365 = 740\\x = 740 - 365\\x = 375$

Hence,

375 lower reserved tickets were purchased and 365 upper reserved tickets were purchased

Find the value of x. 899 46 X

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

I think it's 45.

Step-by-step explanation:

46 + 89 = 135

adding all the angles of a triangle will always equal 180.

180 - 135 = 45

the last angle is 45.
