f(x)=x²-3x+3

g(x)=x-1/4

f(g(x))=f(x-1/4)

replacing x by x-1/4 in the function f(x),

f(g(x))=(x-1/4)²-3(x-1/4)+3

we have to find its value when x is 5, so

f(g(5))=(5-1/4)²-3(5-1/4)+3

= (4.75)²-14.25 +3

=22.5625 -11.25

f(g(5)) = 11.3125

Here,

$f(x) = x^2 -3x+3 , g(x) = \frac{x-1}{4}$

And we need to find the value of f(g(x)) when x = 5 . It means , we need to find f(g(5)) .

So first we need to find g(5) and for that we plug 5 for x in g(x). That is ,

$g(5)=\frac{5-1}{4}=1$

So the value of g(5) is 1 .

Now we have f(g(5)) = f(1) . And f(1) is

$1^2 -3(1)+3 = 1$

So the value of f(g(5)) =1

Amy wants to sell at most 25 cookies and at least 10 sprites

Inga [223]

Answer:

$x\leq 25\\y\geq 10\\.50x + y\geq 30$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Amy wants to sell at most 25 cookies ,

Let number of cookies be ' $x$ ' , then $x$ should be less than or equal to 25

Which is represented by $x\leq 25$ ,

Further,

Let number of sprites be ' $y$ ', then ' $y$ ' should be greater than or equal to 10

Which is represented by $y\geq 10$

Also,

Given,

she profits $.50 on every cookie

and $1.00 on every sprite.

So total profit on selling cookies would be

= Profit on each cookie times the number of cookies

= $.50\times x$

= $.5x$

Similarly, total profit on selling sprites would be

=profit on each sprite times the number of sprites

= $1.00\times y$

= $y$

Now, combining these two should be greater than or equal to $30

representing this through an equation,

$.50x+y\geq 30$

Thus the sysytem of equations is given as:

$x\leq 25\\y\geq 10\\.50x + y\geq 30$

CALCULUS: For the function whose values are given in the table below, the integral from 0 to 6 of f(x)dx is approximated by a Re

ladessa [460]

The table gives values of f(x) at various x in the interval [0, 6], and you have to use them to approximate the definite integral,

∫₀⁶ f(x) dx

with a left-endpoint sum using 3 intervals of width 2. This means you have to

• split up [0, 6] into 3 subintervals of equal length, namely [0, 2], [2, 4], and [4, 6]

• take the left endpoints of these intervals and the values of f(x) these endpoints, so x ∈ {0, 2, 4} and f(x) ∈ {0, 0.48, 0.84}

• approximate the area under f(x) on [0, 6] with the sum of the areas of rectangles with dimensions 2 × f(x) (that is, width = 2 and height = f(x) for each rectangle)

So the Riemann sum is

∫₀⁶ f(x) dx ≈ 2 ∑ f(x)

for x ∈ {0, 2, 4}, which is about

∫₀⁶ f(x) dx ≈ 2 (0 + 0.48 + 0.84) = 2.64

making the answer A.

A student simplifies the given expression. Which statement BEST describes the error in the student's work? 12 + 24 ÷ 6(4) 36 ÷ 2

Marrrta [24]

A. The student added before multiplying.
If they had multiplied 6 and 4 first, the next step would have been too divide. But since they added first, they got 36/24 or 3/2 when the answer should be 13.
