Let f(x)=9−8x‾‾‾‾‾‾√ .Which of the following decompositions of f(x)=p(q(x)) into a pair of functions p(x) (the outside function)

zvonat [6]

Answer:

C, D and E

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming

f(x) = √(9−8x)

and the options are:

A. p(x) = √(-8x) and q(x)=9+x

B. p(x) = √(9+x) and q(x)=8x

C. p(x) = √(-x) and q(x)=8x−9

D. p(x)=√(9−x) and q(x)=8x

E. p(x)=√x and q(x)=9−8x

F. p(x)=9−8x and q(x)=√x

G. All of the above

H. None of the above

Substituting in f(x)=p(q(x)) we get:

A. √(-8(9+x)) = √(-72 - 8x)

B. √(9+(8x)) = √(9+8x)

C. √(-(8x−9 )) = √(-8x + 9)

D. √(9−(8x)) = √(9−8x)

E. √(9−8x )

F. 9−8(√x ) = 9 - 8√x

Element X is a radioactive isotope such that its mass decreases by 26% every day. If an experiment starts out with 810 grams of

ioda

Answer:

The hourly decay rate is of 1.25%, so the hourly rate of change is of -1.25%.

The function to represent the mass of the sample after t days is $A(t) = 810(0.74)^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation of decay:

The exponential equation for the amount of a substance is given by:

$A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^t$

In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

Hourly rate of change:

Decreases 26% by day. A day has 24 hours. This means that $A(24) = (1-0.26)A(0) = 0.74A(0)$ ; We use this to find r.

$A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^t$

$0.74A(0) = A(0)(1-r)^{24}$

$(1-r)^{24} = 0.74$

$\sqrt[24]{(1-r)^{24}} = \sqrt[24]{0.74}$

$1 - r = (0.74)^{\frac{1}{24}}$

$1 - r = 0.9875$

$r = 1 - 0.9875 = 0.0125$

The hourly decay rate is of 1.25%, so the hourly rate of change is of -1.25%.

Starts out with 810 grams of Element X

This means that $A(0) = 810$

Element X is a radioactive isotope such that its mass decreases by 26% every day.

This means that we use, for this equation, r = 0.26.

The equation is:

$A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^t$

$A(t) = 810(1 - 0.26)^t$

$A(t) = 810(0.74)^t$

The function to represent the mass of the sample after t days is $A(t) = 810(0.74)^t$

Simplify the algebraic expression -2(x - 3) + 4(-2x + 8)

dangina [55]

The answer to this equation is :-10x+38 because
-2x(x-3)+4(-2x+8)
(-2x+6)+(-8x+32)
(-2x+6)(-8x+32)
-2x+6-8x+32
-10x+38

A spool contains 270 inches of wire. How many pieces of wire, each with the a length of 1 7/8 inches, can be cut from the spool?

prisoha [69]

You would be able to cut 144 pieces of wire from the spool because 270/1 7/8 (or 1.875) equals 144
