Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate f(g(x)) substitute x = g(x) into f(x)
f(g(x))
= f(x²)
= 2(x²) - 4 = 2x² - 4
Start by expanding the brackets "2(x+4)". Then, start collecting similar terms (those that have "x" with each other, and those that dont have "x" go together). Finally, your answer should be "3x + 5 - 2x - 8 + 3" which is equal to just x.
The triangle inequality applies.
In order for ACD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between CD-DA=0 and CD+DA=8.
In order for ABD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between BC-AB=3 and BC+AB=9.
The values common to both these restrictions are numbers between 3 and 8. Assuming we don't want the diagonal to be coincident with any sides, its integer length will be one of ...
{4, 5, 6, 7}
I believe the answer is 11/15 .
