The statement that -6 is in the domain of f(g(x)) is true
<h3>Complete question</h3>
If f(x) = -2x + 8 and g(x) =
, which statement is true?
- -6 is in the domain of f(g(x))
- -6 is not in the domain of f(g(x))
<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>
We have:
f(x) = -2x + 8

Start by calculating the function f(g(x)) using:
f(g(x)) = -2g(x) + 8
Substitute 

Set the radicand to at least 0

Subtract 9 from both sides

This means that the domain of f(g(x)) are real numbers greater than or equal to -9. i.e. -9, -8, -7, -6, ...........
Hence, the statement that -6 is in the domain of f(g(x)) is true

Answer:
The minimum value of f(x) is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
- To find the minimum value of the function f(x), you should find the value of x which has the minimum value of y, so we will use the differentiation to find it
- Differentiate f(x) with respect to x and equate it by 0 to find x, then substitute the value of x in f(x) to find the minimum value of f(x)
∵ f(x) = 2x² - 4x + 4
→ Find f'(x)
∵ f'(x) = 2(2)
- 4(1)
+ 0
∴ f'(x) = 4x - 4
→ Equate f'(x) by 0
∵ f'(x) = 0
∴ 4x - 4 = 0
→ Add 4 to both sides
∵ 4x - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4
∴ 4x = 4
→ Divide both sides by 4
∴ x = 1
→ The minimum value is f(1)
∵ f(1) = 2(1)² - 4(1) + 4
∴ f(1) = 2 - 4 + 4
∴ f(1) = 2
∴ The minimum value of f(x) is 2
Answer:
b. both functions have a negative slope
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is

This function is of the form
, where
is the slope and
is the y-intercept.
We can also determine the slope of the function in the table using any two points, say
.
The slope formula is given by,
.
If
, then,

.
We can see that both functions have a negative slope.
The correct answer is B.
Answer:
The equation in slope-intercept form that represents the situation is y=0.25*x + 84 where y represents the temperature in ° F and x the number of chirps per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear equation can be expressed in the form y=m*x + b. In this equation, x and y are coordinates of a point, m is the slope and b is the y coordinate of the y-intercept. Since this equation describes a line in terms of its slope and its y-intercept, this equation is said to be in its slope-intercept form.
When there are two points of a line (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope is determined by the quotient between the difference of the ordinate of these two points and the difference of the abscissa of the same points. This is:

Having a point on the line, you can substitute the values of m, x and y in the equation y = mx + b and thus find b.
In this case:
- (x1, y1): (92, 107)
- (x2, y2): (116, 113)
So:

m= 0.25
substituting the values of m, x1 and y1 in the equation y = mx + b you have:
107= 0.25*92 + b
107 - 0.25*92= b
84=b
