Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AB = 3x + 4 and AC which is twice of AB is equal to 11x - 17

2 (3x + 4) = 11x - 17

6x + 8 = 11x - 17

8 + 17 = 11x - 6x

25 = 5x

5 = x

AC = CD = 11x - 17 ➡ 11×5 - 17 = 38

CD = 38 and DE = 49 - 38 = 11

If h(x) = (f o g)(x) and h(x) = sqrt(x+5), find g(x) if f(x) = sqrt(x+2)

agasfer [191]

Answer:

g(x) = x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>

h(x) = (f ο g)(x)
h(x) = $\sqrt{x+5}$
f(x) = $\sqrt{x+2}$

g(x)

<h3>Solution</h3>

(f ο g)(x) = f(g(x))

<u>Substitute x with g(x) and solve for g(x):</u>

$\sqrt{x+5}$ = $\sqrt{g(x)+2}$
x + 5 = g(x) + 2
x + 3 = g(x)
g(x) = x + 3

Which values of m and b will create a system of equations with no solution? Select two options. y = mx + b y = –2x + A system of

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

m = -2 and b = -1/3

m = -2 and b = -2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x - 1/3

y = -2x - 2/3

This system has no solutions because y cannot be 2 different values at once.
