If f(x) = 2x - 8 and g(x) = x4, what is (gºf)(5)?​

Answer:

(g°f)x =16 when x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

It might be easier to understand if you wrote this the other acceptable way.

g(x) = x^4

f(x) = 2x - 8

g(f(x))  means that in g(x) wherever you see and x you put f(x)

g(f(x)) = (f(x) ) ^ 4 Now put in the general value for f(x)

g(2x - 8) = (2x - 8)^4

You really don't want to expand this (although it would give you the right answer eventually).

g(2*5 - 8) = (2 * 5 - 8)^4

g(2*5 - 8) = (10 - 8)^4

g(2*5 - 8) = 2^4

Answer 16

If TU = 8, UV = 3x, and TV = x + 10, what is TV?
IgorLugansk [536]

The value of TV is 11.

<h3>What is equation?</h3>

An equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Given:

TU= 8, UV = 3x and TV = x+10

TV= TU + UV

x +10= 8+ 3x

-2x = -2

x= 1

Hence, TV = 1+10= 11.

Hi :) I need help with the question in the screenshot if anybody knows it can you plz help I will give you brainliest, thanks an
amm1812

This question is difficult to give a definite answer to because it's an approximation, but I estimate the solutions to be around x = 2.6 and x = -2.6.

When they ask for solutions of the graphed function they are asking for an approximation of where the graph intercepts the x-axis, and we can see it kind of intercepts in the middle of 2 and 3, except slightly closer to 3, which is why I estimated 2.6.

The graph also appears to be symmetrical, which means the solutions will be the same except one would be negative and one would be positive, which means the second solution would be -2.6.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

Does anyone know the answer? Please help.
user100 [1]

Answer:

(0,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is (0,-2) because -2 is where the line crosses over the y-axis. If we looked at a graph you would see that the line goes over 0 on the X-axis, which causes the line to touch the y-axis and intercept it at the -2 mark.

An easy way to find the answer for these sorts of questions is to draw out a graph and mark the coordinates on it and draw the line conecting them. Once you've done that you can easily see where the line intercepts on both the y and x axis.

A certain semiconductor device requires a tunneling probability of T = 10-5 for an electron tunneling through a rectangular barr
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Generally the barrier width is a = 1.9322 *10^{-9} \ m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The tunneling probability required is  T  = 1 * 10^{-5}

      The barrier height is  V_o  = 0.4 eV

       The electron energy is  E = 0.08eV

Generally the wave number is mathematically represented as

      k  =  \sqrt{ \frac{2 * m [V_o - E]}{\= h^2} }

Here m is the mass of the electron with the value  m  =  9.11 *10^{-31} \  kg

         h  is is know as h-bar and the value is  \= h = 1.054*10^{-34} \  J \cdot s

So

          k  =  \sqrt{ \frac{2 * 9.11 *10^{-31 } [0.4 - 0.04] * 1.6*10^{-19}}{[1.054*10^{-34}^2]} }

=>      k = 3.073582 *10^{9}  \ m^{-1}

Generally the tunneling probability is mathematically represented as

          T  = 16 * \frac{E}{V_o }  * [1 - \frac{E}{V_o} ] * e^{-2 * k * a}

So

        1.0 *10^{-5} = 16 * \frac{0.04}{0.4 }  * [1 - \frac{0.04}{0.4} ] * e^{-2 * 3.0736 *10^{9} * a}

=>    6.944*10^{-6}= e^{-2 * 3.0736 *10^{9} * a}

Taking natural log of both sides

          ln[6.944*10^{-6}] = -2 * 3.0736 *10^{9} * a}

=>        -11.8776  = -2 * 3.0736 *10^{9} * a}

=>        a = 1.9322 *10^{-9} \ m
