Answer:
C. 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
B's age = x years
A's age = 2 times older than B
= 2 * x
= 2x years
A's age = 2x years
For instance, if B's age is 17 years
Then,
A's age = 2x
= 2(17)
= 34 years old
Answer:
= 
+ 3 ; a₁ = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, ......
Note the difference in consecutive terms is constant, that is
4 - 1 = 7 - 4 = 10 - 7 = 13 - 10 = 16 - 13 = 3
Thus to obtain the next term in the sequence ( recursive formula )
Add 3 to the previous term
= + 3 ( with a₁ = 1 )
Answer:
The value of (f/g) (8) = -169
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: explaining the question</u>
The quotient (f/g) is not defined at values of x ⇒ both the functions must be defined at a point for the combination to be defined.
⇒(f/g)(x) =(f(x)) / (g(x))
If f(x)= 3-2 and g(x)=1/x+5
⇒then according to the preceding formula: (f/g)(x) =(f(x)) / (g(x))
⇒(f/g)(8) = f(8) / g(8)
to solve this we have to find the value of both f(8) and g(8)
<u>Step 2: find value of f(8) and g(8)</u>
⇒ we know that f(x) = 3-2x and we know dat f(x) = f(8)
⇒ f(8) = 3-2(8)
f(8) = 3-16 = -13
⇒we know that g(x) = 1/x+5 and g(x) = g(8)
⇒ g(8) = 1/8+5
g(8) =1/13
These 2 equations we will insert in the following : ⇒(f/g)(8) = f(8) / g(8)
⇒ f/g (8) = -13 / (1/13) = -13 * 13/1 = -169
The value of (f/g) (8) = -169
