f(g(x)) is basically replacing the x with g(x).

So, f(x)=(g(x))^2 - g(x)

g(x), in turn, equals x+1

Replace g(x) with x+1

(x+1)^2 - (x+1)

Expand: x^2+x+x+1 - x - 1

Cancel out x and 1

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

If you require factoring it's

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

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

To find f(g)(x) , we substitute g(x) in for x in the function f(x)

f(x) = x^2 -x

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

          = (x+1)^2 - (x+1)

           = (x+1)*(x+1) - (x+1)

FOIL the square

             (x+1) (x+1)

         First x*x = x^2

        outer x*1 = x

        inner 1*x = x

       last  1*1 =1

Add them together

x^2 + x+x+1 = x^2+2x+1


f(g(x)) = (x+1)*(x+1) - (x+1)

           = x^2+2x+1 -(x+1)

Distribute the -1

          = x^2 +2x+1 -x-1

          = x^2 +x

Answer:

106 square meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the whole orange rectangular figure and then remove a part of it. The original orange figure appears to be 10 x 12 = 120 m. Next we would need to find the amount that is removed. To find this we need to find the length and width of the thing. The length is 7 and the width looks to be 10 - 4 - 4 = 2.  7 x 2 = 14. Subtract 14 from 120 to get 106 square meters.

Let f(x) = - 10x + 9 and g(x) = x2 + 12 <br>Find f( - 4)/g( - 4)​
Reptile [31]

Answer:

\frac{49}{28}

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate g(- 4) and f(- 4) by substituting x = - 4 into g(x) and f(x), that is

f(- 4) = - 10(- 4) + 9 = 40 + 9 = 49

g(- 4) = (- 4)² + 12 = 16 + 12 = 28

Then

\frac{f(-4)}{g(-4)} = \frac{49}{28} = \frac{7}{4}

The sides of a triangle are in the ratio of 2:3:4. If the measure of the shortest side of the triangle is 12 centimeters, what i
Scorpion4ik [409]
To answer this, we let x some factor that would agree or make the ratio given true. We calculate as follows:

<span>2:3:4
2x:3x:4x

2x = 12
x = 6 

Therefore, the length of the longest side would be 4x = 4(6) = 24 cm, third option.</span>

Help I guess? sorry I'm asking a lot of questions today
valina [46]

Answer:

63 houses have been sold this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 81 houses in the community. If 7/9 are sold this year, then all you have to do is multiplication.

In this case, you would multiply 81 by 7/9 to get your answer.

81/1 x 7/9:

Cancel out the 9 and the 81. Then the denominator will be 1 x 1 and the numerator would be 7 x 9. It would be 63 (7x9=63) over 1 (1x1=1) which is just 63. Make sure to include units.
