Answer:

B . (fog)(-4) = - 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given f(x) = 4 x + 7, g(x) = 3 x- 5

Now, by the COMPOSITE FUNCTION:

(f o g) (x) = f (g(x))

Now here: )f o g) ( -4) = f (g(-4))

Simplifying for g(x) = 3 x - 5

g(-4) = 3 (-4) - 5 = -12 - 5 = -17

or, g (-4) = -17

Now, for f(x) = 4 x + 7

f ( g(-4)) = f ( -17) = 4 (-17) + 7

= - 68 + 7 = - 61

or, f ( g(-4)) = - 61

Hence, (fog)(-4) = - 61

Lucas and Erick are factoring the polynomial

Pachacha [2.7K]

The polynomial is:
12 x³ - 6 x² + 8 x - 4
Lucas:
( 12 x³ + 8 x ) + ( - 6 x² - 4 ) = 4 x ( 3 x² + 2 ) - 2 ( 3 x² + 2 ) =
= ( 3 x² + 2 ) ( 4 x - 2 ) = 2 ( 3 x² + 2 ) ( 2 x - 1 )
Erick:
( 12 x³ - 6 x² ) + ( 8 x - 4 ) = 6 x² ( 2 x - 1 ) + 4 ( 2 x - 1 ) =
= ( 2 x - 1 ) ( 6 x² + 4 ) = 2 ( 3 x² + 2 ) ( 2 x - 1 )
Answer:
Both students are correct. Each grouping leads to the same result.
