You need to expand (4x-7)(x+3), multiplying each term in the first bracket by each term in the second bracket, in order to get 4x^2+5x-21. Hope that helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is any number that can be divided (written as a fraction) by.
Examples: 1/2, 3, 5/9
*Irrational numbers: cannot be divided
Examples: π, 3.53465374765768957965...
Remark
First of all you have to declare the meaning of g(f(x)) After you have done that, you have to make the correct substitution.
Givens
f(x) = 4x^2 + x + 1
g(x) = x^2 - 2
Discussion
What the given condition g(f(x)) means is that you begin with g(x). Write down g(x) = x^2 - 2
Wherever you see an x on either the left or right side of the equation, you put fix)
Then wherever you see f(x) on the right you put in what f(x) is equal to.
Solution
g(x) = x^2 - 2
g(f(x)) = (f(x))^2 - 2
g(f(x)) = [4x^2 + x + 1]^2 - 2
f(x)^2 =
4x^2 + x + 1
<u>4x^2 + x + 1</u>
16x^4 + 4x^3 + 4x^2
4x^3 + x^2 + x
<u> 4x^2 + x + 1</u>
16x^4 + 8x^3 + 9x^2 + 2x + 1
Answer
g(f(x)) = 16x^4 + 8x^3 + 9x^2 + 2x + 1 - 2
g(f(x)) = 16x^4 + 8x^3 + 9x^2 + 2x - 1
HOY = Horizontal line, m=0, y is the only variable in the equation
VUX = Vertical line, m= undefined, x is the only variable in the equation
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)= x²+3x-1
f(-1)= (-1)²+3(-1)-1
= 1-3-1
= -2-1
= -3
