You could actually find the compositions and thus have something to compare. You haven't shared the list of possible answer choices.
(f+g)(x) = 5x - 3 + x + 4 = 6x + 1
(f-g)(x) = 5x - 3 - x - 4 = 4x - 7
(f*g)(x) = (5x-3)((x+4) = 5x^2 + 20x - 3x - 12 = 5x^2 + 17x - 12
There are also the quotient (f/g)(x) and the compositions f(g(x)) and g(f(x)).
WRite them out.
Then you could arbitrarily select x values, such as 2, 10, etc., subst. them into each composition and determine which output is greatest.

Answer:
The quantity of coffee costing $4 a pound in the coffee mixture is 2 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Coffee costing $4 a pound is mixed with 3 pounds of coffee costing 4.50 a pound to obtain a mixture costing $4.30 a pound.
We have to find the quantity of coffee costing $4 a pound in the mixture.
Let x represent the number of pounds of $4 coffee.
Cost of one pound = 4x.
Cost of 3 pounds of coffee costing 4.50 a pound = 3(4.50)
Cost of mixture costing $4.30 a pound = (x+3)(4.30)
According to given problem,

Solving for x, we get,

Rearranging like term together, we get,



Thus, the quantity of coffee costing $4 a pound in the coffee mixture is 2 pounds.
Answer:
7 packs
Step-by-step explanation:
2.75p < 20
Divide both sides by 2.75
2.75p/2.75 < 20/2.76
Simplify
p = 7.27 (27 repeating)
Round
p = 7
