Answer:
a) 12
b) 13
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 + 3
g(x) = 2x - 1
a) f(g(2)) = ?
g(2) = 2(2) - 1
= 4 - 1
= 3
f(g(2)) = f(3) = 3^2 + 3
= 9 + 3
= 12
b) g(f(2)) = ?
f(2) = 2^2 + 3
= 4 + 3
= 7
g(f(2)) = g(7) = 2(7) - 1
= 14 - 1
= 13
<span>Total mass of mixture is given as 5/6 pound, in which 1/4 pound is gravel. Amount of sand in the mixture will be 5/6 - 1/4 = 7/12
So, the ratio of sand to that of gravel in given mixture is 7/12:1/4 = 7:3. i.e every 10
parts of mixture contain 7 parts of sand and 3 parts of gravel.
If we are given 1-pound of same mixture, it will contain 1 * 3/10 pound gravel, i.e. 0.3 pound.</span>
