Neither A, B or D explains why plane is undefined. All 3 of those answers describe something about plane which is true. Plane indeed can be named using three non collinear points. However, B is telling why plane is undenified. I it described generally, not using a formal definition.
Answer is B
Let,
f(x) = -2x+34
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
h(x) = -|3x|
k(x) = (x-2)^2
This is a trial and error type of problem (aka "guess and check"). There are 24 combinations to try out for each problem, so it might take a while. It turns out that
g(h(k(f(15)))) = -6
f(k(g(h(8)))) = 2
So the order for part A should be: f, k, h, g
The order for part B should be: h, g, k f
note how I'm working from the right and moving left (working inside and moving out).
Here's proof of both claims
-----------------------------------------
Proof of Claim 1:
f(x) = -2x+34
f(15) = -2(15)+34
f(15) = 4
-----------------
k(x) = (x-2)^2
k(f(15)) = (f(15)-2)^2
k(f(15)) = (4-2)^2
k(f(15)) = 4
-----------------
h(x) = -|3x|
h(k(f(15))) = -|3*k(f(15))|
h(k(f(15))) = -|3*4|
h(k(f(15))) = -12
-----------------
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = (-h(k(f(15))) /3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = (-(-12) /3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = -6
-----------------------------------------
Proof of Claim 2:
h(x) = -|3x|
h(8) = -|3*8|
h(8) = -24
---------------
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = (-h(8)/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = (-(-24)/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = -2
---------------
k(x) = (x-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = (g(h(8))-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = (-2-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = 16
---------------
f(x) = -2x+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = -2*(k(g(h(8))) )+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = -2*(16)+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = 2
Answer:
- boat speed: 17.25 mph
- current: 2.5 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Upstream, the speed of the current (c) subtracts from the speed of the boat (b) to give the net speed. Downstream, the speed of the current adds. We can make use of the relation ...
speed = distance/time
b-c = 29.5/2 = 14.75 . . . . . miles/hour
b+c = 59.25/3 = 19.75 . . . .miles/hour
Subtracting the first equation from the second, we get ...
(b+c) -(b-c) = 19.75 -14.75
2c = 5
c = 2.5
Then either equation can be used to find b:
b = 14.75 +c = 17.25
The speed of the boat in still water is 17.25 miles per hour; the speed of the current is 2.5 miles per hour.
