For one pair of socks you pay $12 plus $2 shipping.
Let's use x as the variable for how many pairs of socks someone might buy.
If someone buys 5 pairs of socks, they will pay $62. $12 * 5 + $2
So, we can write the expression as 12x + 2.
Answer:
110 yards of string
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting the feet of the string of 1 balloon to yard
1 foot = 1/3 yard
6 feet = x
x = 6 × 1/3 yard
x = 2 yard
Hence 1 balloon uses 2 yard of string
Since:
1 balloon = 2 yard of string
55 ballons = x
x = 55 × 2 yard of string
x = 110 yards of string
Hence, for 55 balloons he would need 110 yards of string.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we need to write the mixed fraction as a fractional number, as follows:


Then, evaluating the expression:

Answer:
(
h
∘
f
∘
g
)
(
x
)
is known as a composite function. Here's how composite functions work:
let's say that
x
=
1
. Your function
g
(
x
)
=
1
3
(
x
)
now produces a
y
output of
1
3
, since
g
(
1
)
=
1
3
(
1
)
. Within a composite function, the y-value of one function becomes the x-value of the next, like so:
g
(
1
)
=
1
3
⇒
f
(
1
3
)
=
17
3
⇒
h
(
17
3
)
=
17
Therefore,
(
h
∘
f
∘
g
)
(
1
)
=
17
Based on this, to find the function for
(
h
∘
f
∘
g
)
(
x
)
(combined from right to left, by the way), simply replace
x
in
f
(
x
)
with the function
g
(
x
)
, and replace
x
in
h
(
x
)
with the function of
(
f
∘
g
)
(
x
)
, to get
(
h
∘
f
∘
g
)
(
x
)
.
This, simplified, is equal to
2
x
+
15
, and therefore
(
h
∘
f
∘
g
)
(
1
)
=
2
(
1
)
+
15
=
17
Hope that helps!
