Answer:

a. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x²

g(x) = x + 6

h(x) = 7

g[f(x)] = x² + 6

h{g[f(x)]} = 7

Given f(x) = x^2 + 1 and g(x) = x-2

a. Find (f-g)(-2)

[f-g](x) = f(x) - g(x) = x^2-x+3

[f-g](-2) = (-2)^2-(-2)+3 = 9

----------------------------

b. Find f[g(5)]

f[g(5)] = f[5-2] = f[3] = 9+1 = 10

===================

problem a.

-----

(f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

-----

(f-g)(-2) = f(-2) - g(-2)

-----

f(x) = x^2 + 1

f(-2) = (-2)^2 + 1

f(-2) = 4+1

f(-2) = 5

-----

g(x) = x-2

g(-2) = -2-2

g(-2) = -4

-----

f-g(-2) = f(-2) - g(-2) = 5 - (-4) = 5 + 4 = 9

-----

answer for a is:

f-g(-2) = 9

-----

problem b.

-----

g(x) = x-2

g(5) = 5-2

g(5) = 3

-----

f(x) = x^2 + 1

f(g(5)) = (g(5))^2 + 1

since g(5) = 3, equation becomes:

f(g(5)) = 3^2 + 1

f(g(5)) = 9 + 1 = 10

-----

answer for b is:

f(g(5)) = 10

-----

in general, you substitute whatever value is replacing x in the equation to get your answers.

looking at problem b in this way, we would get a general solution as follows:

f(x) = x^2 + 1

g(x) = x-2

substitute g(x) for x:

f(g(x)) = (g(x))^2 + 1

substitute the equation for g(x) on the right hand side.

f(g(x)) = (x-2)^2 + 1

remove parentheses:

f(g(x)) = x^2 - 4*x + 4 + 1

simplify:

f(g(x)) = x^2 - 4*x + 5

-----

substituting 5 for x:

f(g(5)) = (5^2 - 4*5 + 5

simplifying:

f(g(5)) = 25 - 20 + 5

f(g(5)) = 10

-----

answer is the same as above where we first solved for g(5) which became 3, and then substituted that value in f(g(x)) which made it f(3)).

Hope this helps!

Answer:

  f(0) = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

At x=0, the inequality tells you ...

  1/2 ≤ 1 -f(0) ≤ 1/2

That is, ...

  1 - f(0) = 1/2

  f(0) = 1/2

  \boxed{\lim\limits_{x\to 0}{f(x)}=\dfrac{1}{2}}
