2×9= 18

18÷9= 2

Answer: 2 cups of fruit punch.

----------

Explanation: so, you divide. why do I know this? because it doesn't say "times," (multiplication word) "more than," (addition word) "less than/ left over." (subtraction word) so what your looking for is "equally," and "each."

So, can you do 2÷9? no, you cant. so you have to multiply 2×9 to get the answer. and what's the answer? 18!

so, now, can you divide 18÷9? yes!! why? because you can only divide big numbers like 18. and you can't divide small numbers like 2 or 9. do you get what I'm saying?

so, what's 18÷9? 2!!


I hope this helps! :) if you still don't understand it just please let me know :)

If h(x)=(f o g) (x) and h(x)= ∛x+3, find g( x) if f(x)= ∛x+2 (picture attached)
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

g(x) = x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Informally, you can see that the function h(x) takes the root of a value that is 1 more than the value under the same radical in f(x). This suggests that adding 1 to x in f(x) will give you h(x). That is, ...

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

so

g(x) = x+1

_____

More formally, you can apply the inverse of the function f(x) to the equation ...

h(x) = f(g(x))

f^-1(h(x)) = f^-1(f(g(x))) . . . inverse function applied

f^-1(h(x)) = g(x) . . . . . . . . . simplified

Now f^-1(x) can be found by solving for y in ...

x = f(y)

x = ∛(y+2) . . . . . . . . . definition of f(y)

x^3 = y+2 . . . . . . . . . cube both sides

x^3 -2 = y = f^-1(x) . . . subtract 2 from both sides

So, f^-1(h(x)) is ...

f^-1(h(x)) = g(x) = (∛(x+3))^3 -2 = x+3 -2

g(x) = x+1

What is an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=−23x+5 and passes through the point (2, 11) ?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The equation would be y = 1/23x - 251/23

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, you need to locate the slope of the first equation. Since the slope is the coefficient of x, we know it to be -23. Now, the perpendicular slope is the opposite and reciprocal of that, which makes the new slope 1/23.

Now that we have this, we can use the point and the slope in point-slope form to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 11 = 1/23(x - 2)

y - 11 = 1/23x - 2/23

y = 1/23x - 251/23

Answer:

9 =6x

Step-by-step explanation:

We know this is the answer because the -4x was cancelled out left to the equal sign, and 2x has now become 6x after adding 4x.
