One possible solution is

f(x) = x^4

g(x) = x-3

Since

f(x) = x^4

f(g(x)) = ( g(x) )^4

f(g(x)) = ( x-3 )^4

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

Another possible solution could be

f(x) = x^2

g(x) = (x-3)^2

Because

f(x) = x^2

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

f(g(x)) = ( (x-3)^2 )^2

f(g(x)) = (x-3)^(2*2)

f(g(x)) = (x-3)^4

General solutions of sin(x-90)+cos(x+270)=-1<br> {both 90 and 270 are in degrees}

mixer [17]

Answer:

$\left[\begin{array}{l}x=2\pi k,\ \ k\in Z\\ \\x=-\dfrac{\pi }{2}+2\pi k,\ k\in Z\end{array}\right.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\sin (x-90^{\circ})+\cos(x+270^{\circ})=-1$

First, note that

$\sin (x-90^{\circ})=-\cos x\\ \\\cos(x+270^{\circ})=\sin x$

So, the equation is

$-\cos x+\sin x= -1$

Multiply this equation by $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}:$

$-\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\cos x+\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\sin x= -\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\\ \\\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\cos x-\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\sin x=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\\ \\\cos 45^{\circ}\cos x-\sin 45^{\circ}\sin x=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\\ \\\cos (x+45^{\circ})=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

The general solution is

$x+45^{\circ}=\pm \arccos \left(\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)+2\pi k,\ \ k\in Z\\ \\x+\dfrac{\pi }{4}=\pm \dfrac{\pi }{4}+2\pi k,\ \ k\in Z\\ \\x=-\dfrac{\pi }{4}\pm \dfrac{\pi }{4}+2\pi k,\ \ k\in Z\\ \\\left[\begin{array}{l}x=2\pi k,\ \ k\in Z\\ \\x=-\dfrac{\pi }{2}+2\pi k,\ k\in Z\end{array}\right.$

You open a savings account with a beginning balance of $600. You plan on depositing $50 every month until you have enough money

telo118 [61]

Answer:

48 months

Step-by-step explanation:

first take how much you need and add how much you want to leave, so 2500+500=3000. Then delete 600 from 3000, which will give you $2400. divide $2400 by 50 which gives you 48. it will take 48 months to get enough money to purchase a car at $2500 and leave $500 in the account.
