First, you would add all the pounds he bought altogether, to know how much he bought, and how many pounds he will divide amongst his friends. That's 3.4 + 2.5 + 4 which equals to 9.9.
So he divides 9.9 pounds of cashews between himself and his two friends, and that makes it dividing 9.9 pounds between two people. That would simply make it : 9.9 ÷ 3, which equals to 3.3
Each friend will get 3.3 pounds of cashews.
Part 1:
Step 1:
Find the value of G(16)
Using the equation for g(x) =√x, replace x with 16 and solve:
g(16) = √16 = 4
Step 2:
Now using the answer for g(16) replace x in the equation fir f(x) with 4 and solve:
f(x) = x +2
f(4) = 4+2 = 6
Part 2:
following the same steps as part 1:
f(g(x)) would be replacing x in the equation ofr f(x)with the equation for g(x)
f(g(x)) = √x +2
It goes on forever basically, as it can't be expressed as a fraction.
