Answer:

f(g(x)) = 9x^2 + 15x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are using function g(x) = 3x - 1 as the input to function f(x) = x^2 + 7x.

Starting with f(x) = x^2 + 7x, substitute g(x) for x on the left side and likewise substitute x^2 + 7x for each x on the right side. We obtain:

f(g(x)) = (3x - 1)^2 + 7(3x - 1).

If we multiply this out, we get:

f(g(x)) = 9x^2 - 6x + 1 + 21x - 7, or

f(g(x)) = 9x^2 + 15x - 6

Find the value of y.

Try this option:
1. the sides of the biggest triangle are 16; x and √(16²-x²); the sides of the smallest triange are x;5 and y. The smallest triangle ~ the biggest triangle. Using the property of the similar triangles:
$\frac{x}{5} = \frac{16}{x}, \ then \ x= \sqrt{80}$
2. according to the Pyphagorean theorem (in the smallest triangle):
$y= \sqrt{ \sqrt{80^2} -5^2} = \sqrt{55}$

answer: y=√55.

Andrew took a math test with 40 questions. If he scored an 85%, how many questions did he get correct?

puteri [66]

Andrew answered 34 questions correctly.
I got the answer by divided the 85% by 100% (100% because it's the total percentage.) I received 0.85 when dividing that. Then, I took the 0.85 and divided it by the total of 40 questions, and that gave me the answer of 34.
