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

Talib is trying to find the inverse of the function to the right. His work appears beneath it. Is his work correct? Explain your
lianna [129]
Given the function
f(x)=-8x+4

The inverse of the function is calculated by changing f(x) to y and making x the subject of the formula as follows:
y=-8x+4 \\  \\ y-4=-8x \\  \\ x= \frac{y-4}{-8}

We now change back the variables to get the function in the form of inverse function as follows:
f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-4}{-8}

Comparing this with Talib's work, we can see that he is correct except for the last line where he did not change the variable y back to x.

Therefore, the last line of his work made his inverse not to be correct.

Answer:

Part A: 12.5 cm

Part B: 0.8 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Map scale problems can be solved with proportions.

Part A

5 cm / 2 km = x cm / 5 km

5/2 = x/5

2x = 25

x = 12.5

Answer: 12.5 cm

Part B

5 cm / 2 km = 2 cm / x km

5/2 = 2/x

5x = 4

x = 4/5

x = 0.8

Answer: 0.8 km
