For this case we have the following functions:

f (x) = x ^ 4-x ^ 3 x ^ 2\\g (x) = - x ^ 2

By definition of composition of functions we have to:(f \ g) (x) = \frac {f (x)} {g (x)}

So:

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

By definition of division of powers of the same base we have to place the same base and subtract the exponents:

\frac {f (x)} {g (x)} = - x ^ 2+x-1

ANswer:

(\frac {f} {g}) (x) = - x ^ 2 +x-1

Brayden has 342 marbles in bags. If there are 9 marbles in each bag, how many bags of marbles does Brayden have If Brayden gives
Firlakuza [10]
Brayden has 38 bags.
After giving away 15 bags of marbles, Brayden is left with 23 bags.

To find out how many bags he has we do 342 divided by 9 which is 38.

To find out how many marbles are in 15 bags we do 15 x 9 which is 135.
We then do 342 - 135 to find out how many marbles he has left which is 207 and divide 207 by 9 to convert that into bags, which is 23.
