Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
The ring operator signifies a composition of functions. The composition is evaluated right-to-left. That means the composition ...
should be interpreted to mean ...
___
To evaluate f(g(6)), we first evaluate g(6):
g(6) = 6² -5 = 31
Then we evaluate the function f using that as its argument:
f(31) = 31 -1 = 30
f(g(x)) = 30
Answer:
b. x² + 8x + 12 =
1. use the factoring X (see attachment)
2. 6 x 2 = 12; 6 + 2 = 12
3. (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0
4. x = -6, -2
c. x² + 13x + 12 =
1. 12 x 1 = 12; 12 + 1 = 13
2. (x + 12)(x + 1) = 0
3. x = -12, -1
c. x² + x - 12 =
1. 4 · (-3) = -12; 4 - 3 = 1
2. (x +4)(x - 3) = 0
3. x = -4, 3
f. x² + 15x + 36 =
1. 12 x 3 = 36; 12 + 3 = 15
2. (x + 12)(x + 3) = 0
3. x = -12, -3
hope this helps :)
