If f(x) =4x2 - 8x - 20 and g(x) = 2x + a, find the value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fo

amm1812

Answer:

The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite function:

The composite function of f(x) and g(x) is given by:

$(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))$

In this case:

$f(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 20$

$g(x) = 2x + a$

$(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(2x + a) = 4(2x + a)^2 - 8(2x + a) - 20 = 4(4x^2 + 4ax + a^2) - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 + 16ax + 4a^2 - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 +(16a-16)x + 4a^2 - 8a - 20$

Value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).

This means that when $x = 0, f(g(x)) = 25$ . So

$4a^2 - 8a - 20 = 25$

$4a^2 - 8a - 45 = 0$

Solving a quadratic equation, by Bhaskara:

$\Delta = (-8)^2 - 4(4)(-45) = 784$

$x_{1} = \frac{-(-8) + \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = \frac{36}{8} = 4.5$

$x_{2} = \frac{-(-8) - \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = -\frac{20}{8} = -2.5$

The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.

Please help me with this trigonometry question. Brainliest available.

faltersainse [42]

Considering the angle a by cosine rule
11^2 =7 ^2 +15^2 - 2(7)(15)cos(a)
When you do the maths,
Cos(a) =153/210 =0.729
a= cos inverse of 0.729
a=43 degrees

Considering angle b
7^2=15^2 +11^2 -2(11)(15) cos(b)
This will result in cos(b) =297/330=0.9
b= cos inverse of 0.9 = 25.8 degrees

Considering angle c
15^2=7^2 +11^2 - 2(11)(7) cos(c)
Cos(c) will be = -55/154 = -0.357
c= cos inverse of -0.357=110.9

Comparing the angles a,b and c,
C is the largest size in the triangle with an angle of 110.9 degrees

Am I right please ??

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 33, \sigma = 0.7$
