Because Puck is a mischievous fairy who pulls pranks on people for entertainment.
If the sum is negative or if the signs are different and the negative has a biger absoulute value.
The answer is -8
====================================================
Explanation:
There are two ways to get this answer
Method 1 will have us plug x = 0 into h(x) to get
h(x) = x^2 - 4
h(0) = 0^2 - 4
h(0) = 0 - 4
h(0) = -4
Then this output is plugged into g(x) to get
g(x) = 2x
g(-4) = 2*(-4)
g(-4) = -8 which is the answer
This works because (g o h)(0) is the same as g(h(0)). Note how h(0) is replaced with -4
So effectively g(h(0)) = -8 which is the same as (g o h)(0) = -8
-----------------------
The second method involves a bit algebra first
Start with the outer function g(x). Then replace every x with h(x). On the right side, we will replace h(x) with x^2-4 because h(x) = x^2-4
g(x) = 2x
g(x) = 2( x )
g(h(x)) = 2( h(x) ) ... replace every x with h(x)
g(h(x)) = 2( x^2-4 ) ... replace h(x) on the right side with x^2-4
g(h(x)) = 2x^2-8
(g o h)(x) = 2x^2-8
Now plug in x = 0
(g o h)(x) = 2x^2-8
(g o h)(0) = 2(0)^2-8
(g o h)(0) = 2(0)-8
(g o h)(0) = 0-8
(g o h)(0) = -8
Regardless of which method you use, the answer is -8
Answer:
195.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider geometric series S(n) where initial term is a
So S(n)=a+ar^1+...ar^n
Factor out a
S(n)=a(1+r+r^2...+r^n)
Multiply by r
S(n)r=a(r+r^2+r^3...+r^n+r^n+1)
Subtract S(n) from S(n)r
Note that only 1 and rn^1 remain.
S(n)r-S(n)=a(r^n+1 -1)
Factor out S(n)
S(n)(r-1)=a(r^n+1 -1)
The formula now shows S(n)=a(r^n+1 -1)/(r-1)
Now use the formula for the problem
