We have to find the values of m and n. We know that the value of n is 5 times as much as the value of m : n = 5 m. Also n is 36 more than the value of m : n = m + 36. This is a system of equations. Of we substitute n = 5 m into the second equation: 5 m = m + 36; 5 m - m = 36; 4 m = 36; m = 36 : 4; m = 9. Finally: n = 5 * 9 ; n = 45. Answer: The values are n = 45 and m = 9.
Answer:
see below the first three problems
Step-by-step explanation:
f(g(-2))
First, find g(-2) using function g(x). Then use that value as input for function f(x).
g(x) = -2x + 1
g(-2) = -2(-2) + 1
g(-2) = 5
f(x) = 5x
f(5) = 5(5)
f(5) = 25
f(g(-2)) = 25
g(h(3))
First, find h(3) using function h(x). Then use that value as input for function g(x).
h(x) = x^2 + 6x + 8
h(3) = 3^2 + 6(3) + 8 = 9 + 18 + 8
h(3) = 35
g(x) = -2x + 1
g(35) = -2(35) + 1 = -70 + 1
g(35) = -69
g(h(3)) = -69
f(g(3a))
First, find g(3a) using function g(x). Then use that value as input for function f(x).
g(x) = -2x + 1
g(3a) = -2(3a) + 1
g(3a) = -6a + 1
f(x) = 5x
f(-6a + 1) = 5(-6a + 1)
f(-6a + 1) = -30a + 5
f(g(3a)) = -30a + 5
Let us say that:
x = cost of shorts
y = cost of slacks
z = cost of sports coat
From the given statements, we can create the following
equations:
eqtn 1: 3 x + y =
10.96
eqtn 2: 7 x + 2 y +
z = 30.40
eqtn 3: 4 x + z =
14.45
Rewrite eqtn 1 explicit to y:
y = 10.96 – 3 x -->
eqtn 4
Rewrite eqtn 3 explicit to z:
z = 14.45 – 4x -->
eqtn 5
Plug in the values of y (eqtn 4) and z (eqtn 5) to eqtn
2:
7 x + 2 (10.96 – 3 x) + 14.45 – 4 x = 30.40
7 x + 21.92 – 6 x + 14.45 – 4 x = 30.40
- 3 x + 36.37 = 30.40
- 3 x = - 5.97
x = 1.99
Eqtn 4:
y = 10.96 – 3 x
y = 10.96 – 3 (1.99)
y = 4.99
Eqtn 5:
z = 14.45 – 4x
z = 14.45 – 4 (1.99)
z = 6.49
Therefore each shirt cost $1.99, each slacks cost $4.99,
and each sports coat cost $6.49.
