We can solve this problem by using PEMDAS
PEMDAS stands for
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiply
Add
Subtract
So start with (P+3) () is a parenthesis
The answer is A. x=4.
Start off by distributing the parentheses into the equation.
4x+2(x+6)=36
4x+2x+12=26
Combine like terms.
4x+2x=6x
6x+12=36
Now solve the equation as normal. Begin by subtracting 12 from both sides to isolate the variable.
6x+12=36
-12 -12
---------------
6x = 24
Divide 6 on both sides to find x.
6x=24
---- -----
6 6
x=4
The solution to the equation is 4.
Answer:
When x = 1, (f◦g)(x) is -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Composite function:
The composite function of f and g is given by:
In this question:
Composite function:
The composite function is:
At x = 1
So
When x = 1, (f◦g)(x) is -2.
Answer:
x= 13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x + 9
f(x) = 36
Set the 2 equations equal to each other;
2x + 9 = 36
Subtract 9 from both sides;
2x = 27
Divide both sides by 2;
x = 13.5
<em>Check:</em>
f(x) = 2x + 9
f(13.5) = 2(13.5) + 9= 27 + 9 = 36
