Hello there! Shelly ran D) 5/10 more miles than Ben.
To find the difference between the two runner's distances, subtract the smaller distance from the greater distance.
8/10 - 3/10 = 5/10
Since there is a difference of 5/10, this means Shelly ran 5/1 more miles.
I hope this helps, & have a great rest of your day! :)
It is x/1 inch=6 inches/3 miles
(f ° g) (x) means the composition of the two functions in this order f (g (x) )
So, given f(x) = - 9x + 9 and g(x) = √(x + 1), you must do this:
f(g(x)) = - 9 [ g(x) ] + 9 = - 9 [√(x+1) ] + 9 => f(g(24) = - 9 √(24 + 1) + 9 = - 9√25 + 9 =
= -9(5) + 9 = -45 + 9 = - 36
Answer: - 36
