Let f(x) = 4x − 3. If f(a) = 9 and f(b) = 5, then what is f(a + b) ?

1 answer:

7 0

F(x) = 4x - 3

f(a) = 4a-3

9 = 4a-3

4a = 12

a = 12 / 4

a = 3

_____________________

f(b) = 4b-3

5+3 = 4b

8 = 4b

b = 8 / 4

b = 2

___________________

f(a+b) = 4(a+b) - 3

f(a+b) = 4(3+2) - 3

f(a+b) = 4(5) - 3

f(a+b) = 20 - 3

f(a+b) = 17

When making a book cover, Anwar adds an additional 20 square inches to the surface area to allow for overlap. How many square in

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

234 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Length of book, l=11 in

Width of book, w=8 in

Height of book, h=1in

Additional area required to overlap=20 square inches

We have to find how many square inches of paper to make cover of one book.

We know that surface area of cuboid

$S=2(lb+bh+hl)$

Using the formula

Surface area of book

$S=2(11\times 8+8\times 1+1\times 11)$

$S=214 in^2$

Total paper used to make cover of one book

=Surface area of book +additional surface area

= $214+20$

$=234in^2$

Hence, Anwar will use paper to make cover of one book=234 square inches

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question

MAXImum [283]

The correct answer is option B

(5 + 3i)(4+ 2i)

= 5(4+2i) + 3i(4+2i)

= 20 +10i + 12i +6i²

= 20 +22i +6(-1)

= 20 + 22i - 6

= 14 + 22i

According to the graph, what is the experimental probability of selecting the letter E?

Daniel [21]

The experimental probability of letter E is: 3/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given diagram is the number of outcomes for each letter is given

We have to find the total number of outcomes for finding the experimental probability of letter E

So,

Total outcomes = n(S) = 5+12+8+10+6+9 = 50

Number of outcomes for Letter E = n(E) = 6

So the experimental probability will be:

$P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}\\\\=\frac{6}{50}\\\\= \frac{3}{25}$

Hence,

The experimental probability of letter E is: 3/25
