Step-by-step explanation:

Old Railroad Car:

  • 1 day of coal in 15 hours
  • 1/15 days of coal in 1 hour

New Railroad Car:

  • 1 day of coal in 10 hours
  • 1/10 days of coal in 1 hour

Total number of days of coal in 1 hour

= 1/15 + 1/10 = 1/6.

Since there is 1/6 days of coal in 1 hour,

there will be 1 day of coal in 6 hours.

It will take them 6 hours to transport the supply.

For f(x)= x+5 and g(x)=4x+2 <br> find (fog)(x) And (gof)(x)
Svetllana [295]

Composing functions means that the input of the outer functions is the output of the inner function.

In fact, you can rewrite the circle notation as

(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x)),\quad (g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))

So, we can substitute g(x) with its expression:

(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))=f(4x+2)

And since f(x)=x+5, we simply have to add 5 to its input:

f(4x+2)=(4x+2)+5=4x+7

Similarly, we have, substituting f with its expression,

(g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))=g(x+5)

And since g(x)=4x+2, we have to multiply the input by 4 and add 2:

g(x+5)=4(x+5)+2=4x+20+2=4x+22
