Answer:

3.471 + 7.2516 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

(1,3) (2,0) (5,-8) (9, -25) .

-8

-25

The line of best fit for the data given can be obtained using an online regression calculator :

The equation of best fit for the data is thus;

Best fit equation; y = -3.471 + 7.2516x

Intercept = - 3.471 ;

Slope = 7.2516

So Linda makes 15 dollars an hour

Then divide 135 by 15 to get 9

Linda would need to work 9 hours to get $135

Find (f ∘ g)(-6) when f(x) = 9x + 2 and g(x) = -9x2 - 2x + 1.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Given that the two functions are $f(x)=9x+2$ and $g(x)=-9x^2-2x+1$

We need to determine the value of $(f \circ g)(-6)$

The value of $(f \circ g)(x)$ :

The value of $(f \circ g)(x)$ can be determined using the formula,

$(f \circ g)(x)=f[g(x)]$

Substituting $g(x)=-9x^2-2x+1$ in the above formula, we get;

$(f \circ g)(x)=f[-9x^2-2x+1]$

Now, substituting $x=-9 x^{2}-2 x+1$ in the function $f(x)=9x+2$ , we get;

$(f \circ g)(x)=9(-9x^2-2x+1)+2$

$(f \circ g)(x)=-81x^2-18x+9+2$

$(f \circ g)(x)=-81x^2-18x+11$

Thus, the value of $(f \circ g)(x)$ is $(f \circ g)(x)=-81x^2-18x+11$

The value of $(f \circ g)(-6)$ :

The value of $(f \circ g)(-6)$ can be determined by substituting x = -6 in the function $(f \circ g)(x)=-81x^2-18x+11$

Thus, we have;

$(f \circ g)(-6)=-81(-6)^2-18(-6)+11$

$(f \circ g)(-6)=-81(36)-18(-6)+11$

$(f \circ g)(-6)=-2916+108+11$

$(f \circ g)(-6)=-2797$

Thus, the value of $(f \circ g)(-6)$ is -2797

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The second prize is worth $15325.632

Step-by-step explanation:

32580 + 68% = 54734.4 then 54734.4 minus 72% = 15325.632.

Are you sure that's the right question?

It would be nice if I get some help with these 2 things

Stella [2.4K]

Thing 1
A. You can set up a proportion by dividing how much of something there is by the original. (This probably doesn't make much sense but I hope you can understand it from the answer to the problem below!)
B.First, do 168/21 to see how many more times he put flour in.
168/21= 8
Then to find out the milk in the same proportion do the number (in this case 8) times the original of the thing you wan to find out.
8x9=72
72 tablespoons of milk are needed for 168 cups of flour in this adapted recipe.

Thing 2
24/36=8y
To solve any equation, you want to have letters on one side and numbers on the other, so...
-8 from both sides...
(24/36)-8=y
24/36=0.6
y=(0.6-8)
y=-7.4

Hope this helps :)
