<h3>Answer:  6 apples</h3>

x = number of apples originally

50% of x = 0.50*x = amount of apples eaten = 3

0.50x = 3

x = 3/0.50 ....... divide both sides by 0.50

x = 6

You can think of 50% as 1/2. If 3 apples represent half the bag, then the full bag is 6 apples. So half of 6 is 3.

<h2>Evaluating Composite Functions</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

w(f(m(2))) = 593

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We can write how w(f(m(x))) will be defined but that's too much work and it's only useful when we are evaluating w(f(m(x))) with many inputs.

First let's solve for m(2) first. As you read through this answer, you'll get the idea of what I'm doing.

Given:

m(x) = -4x +1

Solving for m(2):

m(2) = -4(2) +1 \\ m(2) = -8 +1 \\ m(2) = -7

Now we can solve for f(m(2)), since m(2) = -7, f(m(2)) = f(-7).

Given:

f(x)=3x-1

Solving for f(-7):

f(-7)=3(-7)-1 \\ f(-7) = -21 -1 \\ f(-7) = -22

Now we are can solve for w(-22). By now you should get the idea why w(f(m(2))) = w(-22).

Given:

w(x) = x^2 -5x -1

Solving for w(-22):

w(-22) = (-22)^2 -5(-22) -1 \\ w(-22) = 484 -5(-22) -1 \\ w(-22) = 484 +110 -1 \\ w(-22) = 593

The number of ways 8 cars can be lined up at a toll booth would be computed from
stepladder [879]

Answer: c. 8!

Step-by-step explanation:

We know , that if we line up n things , then the total number of ways to arrange n things in a line is given by :-

n! ( in words :- n factorial)

Therefore , the number of ways 8 cars can be lined up at a toll booth would be 8! .

Hence, the correct answer is c. 8! .

Alternatively , we also use multiplicative principle,

If we line up 8 cars , first we fix one car , then the number of choices for the next place will be 7 , after that we fix second car ,then the number of choices for the next place will be 6 , and so on..

So , the total number of ways to line up 8 cars = 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x1 = 8!

Hence, the correct answer is c. 8! .
