Answer:

1153.5 miles (first answer choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

'1000 miles east' is the change in x ('the run'), and '575 miles south' is the change in x (the 'rise').  Since these two vectors form a right angle, we can immediately apply the Pythagorean Theorem without worrying about signs:

d = √(1000² + 575²) = 1153.5 miles (first answer choice)

A) Let f(x) = 4x + 2 and g(x) = 2x^2-4. Find the formula for the composition function gof
ollegr [7]

Answer:

g o f = g(f(x)) = 32x^2 + 32x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 4x +2

g(x) =2x^2 - 4

Required:

Find g o f

This is calculated as:

gof = g(f(x))

g(x) =2x^2 - 4

So:

g(f(x)) = 2(4x+2)^2 - 4

g(f(x)) = 2(4x+2)(4x+2) - 4

g(f(x)) = 2[ 16x^2 + 16x + 4)] - 4

g(f(x)) = 32x^2 + 32x + 8 - 4

g(f(x)) = 32x^2 + 32x + 4

-120 degrees is equal to what?
hichkok12 [17]

It's not clear what you're looking for.

If you want to find an angle whose terminal point involves a positive angle, then -120 degrees is equivalent to +240 degrees.

If you want the equivalent angle in radians, then:

-120 deg        -π rad

-------------- = --------------- =  - 2π/3 rad, or + 4π/3 rad.

      1              180 deg

2x + 7= -11 please help
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 7 from both sides:

2x + 7 (-7) = -11 (-7)

2x = -11 - 7

2x = -18

Next, divide 2 from both sides:

(2x)/2 = (-18)/2

x = -18/2

x = -9

x = -9 is your answer.

Problem:
andreyandreev [35.5K]
5(n-4)=(4n-12)

First: Distribute 5 into n and -4.
5(n-4)=(5n)+(5*-4)= 5n-20.

Second: Subtract 4n from both sides to eliminate the variable from the right side of the equation.

(5n-20)=(4n-12)

n-20=-12

Next: Add 20 to both sides to eliminate the constant from the left side of the equation.

n-20=-12

n=8

The unknown number is 8.
