Given f(x) = log x and g(x) = -x + 1, which is the graph of (fºg)(x)?

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

(f • g)(x) = log (-x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a composite function

What we simply have to do here is to make a substitution

the substitution we are going to make is that we will substitute the value of x in f(x) with the entirety of g(x)

This simply mean that we replace every x we find in f(x) with the entire equation of g(x)

we have this as;

f(g(x)) = log (-x + 1)

Paul has 2/3 as many postcards as Shawn. The number of postcards Shawn has is 4/5 of the number of postcards Tim has. If the thr

ahrayia [7]

Tim has 56 more postcards than Paul.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total postcards boys have = 280

Let,

x = Paul's postcards

y = Shawn's postcards

z = Tim's postcards

According to given statement;

x + y + z = 280 Eqn 1

$x=\frac{2}{3}y$ Eqn 2

$y = \frac{4}{5}z$ Eqn 3

Putting value of y from Eqn 3 in Eqn 2

$x=\frac{2}{3}*\frac{4}{5}z\\\\x=\frac{8}{15}z$ Eqn 4

Putting value of x and y from Eqn 4 and Eqn 3 in Eqn 1

$\frac{8}{15}z+\frac{4}{5}z+z=280\\\\\frac{8z+12z+15z}{15}=280\\\\\frac{35z}{15}=280\\\\$

Multiplying both sides by $\frac{15}{35}$

$\frac{15}{35}*\frac{35}{15}z=280*\frac{15}{35}\\z=120$

Putting z=120 in Eqn 3

$y=\frac{4}{5}*120\\y=96$

Putting y=96 in Eqn 2

$x=\frac{2}{3}*96\\x=64$

Difference of Tim and Paul = 120-64 = 56

Tim has 56 more postcards than Paul.

What is the largest of three consecutive positive integers if the product of the two smallest is equal to 2 more than 8 times th

pogonyaev

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

n, n + 1, n + 2 - three consecutive integers

The equation:

n(n + 1) = 8(n + 2) + 2 ust the distributive property

n² + n = 8n + 16 + 2

n² + n = 8n + 18 subtract 8n from both sides

n² - 7n = 18 subtract 18 from both sides

n² - 7n - 18 = 0

n² - 9n + 2n - 18 = 0

n(n - 9) + 2(n - 9) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 2) = 0 ⇔ n - 9 = 0 or n + 2 =0

n - 9 = 0 add 9 to both sides

n = 9

n + 2 = 0 subtract 2 from both sides

n = -2 < 0

n + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11
