Answer:

450m South

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance traveled Northward :

1000m + 600m = 1600m Northward

Total distance traveled Southward :

1250m + 800m = 2050m

The Displacement :

Southward - Northward

2050m - 1650m

= 450m

Since, it covers more distance towards the south, then, direction is southward

450m South

THis will be  the coordinates of the point  at a turning point on the graph.

Since the second derivative  is positive (=1)  it will be a minimum value of f(x).

Someone help please thank you

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the two functions:

f(x)=8x-5\text{ and } g(x)=9-2x

And we want to find:

(f\circ g)(x)\text{ and } (g\circ f)(x)

1)

Recall that:

(f\circ g)(x)

is the same as:

=f(g(x))

Thus, we can substitute g(x):

=f(9-2x)

And substitute that into f(x):

f(x)=8x-5\\f(9-2x)=8(9-2x)-5

Distribute:

=72-16x-5

Subtract and simplify:

=67-16x\\=-16x+67

Thus:

(f\circ g)(x)=-16x+67

2)

Similarly:

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

Substitute f(x):

g(f(x))=g(8x-5)

Substitute:

g(8x-5)=9-2(8x-5)

Distribute:

=9-16x+10

Simplify:

=-16x+19

Therefore:

(g\circ f)(x)=-16x+19

How much is 24 ounces of spread if it is $6.40 per pound?
Art [367]
Since a ounce = pound is 16=1 so convert 24 ounces into pounds which is 1.5 pounds so multiply 6×4 by 1×5 and get $9.6 dollars for 24 ounces of the spread.
