Answer:
x^2 - 64
Step-by-step explanation:
A difference of squares is a special product in the form (a^2 - b^2)..their factored form is (a - b)(a + b)..
Thus here a = x and b = 8, thus if x + 8 is a factor, then x - 8 is also a factor..
(x + 8)(x - 8) <-- expand this out using difference of squares rules..
= (x)^2 - (8)^2
= x^2 - 64 <-- answer...
You could also expand that using FOIL (FOIL - first, outer, inner, last)..
(x + 8)(x - 8)
= (x)(x) + (x)(-8) + (8)(x) + (8)(-8)
= x^2 - 8x + 8x - 64 <-- the -8x and 8x cancels out..leaving you with..
= x^2 - 64
You would fill in 9 for x so your equation would be 2(9)+3 and you would then get 21. Therefore the answer is f(x)=21
Answer:
15.6
step by step explanation:
5-44• (-0.75) - 18 ÷ 2/3 • 0.8 + (-4/5)
= 5 + 33 - 27*0.8 - 0.8
= 5 + 33 -21.6 - 0.8
= 15.6.
Answer:
Option B is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find g(h(f(x))
We first find h(f(x))
f(x) = x-3/x
Putting value of f(x) in place of x in h(x)
h(x) = 2x+1
h(f(x)) = 2(x-3/x) + 1
= 2(x-3/x) + 1
= 2x -6 /x +1
= 2x-6 +x/x
= 3x-6/x
Now, putting value of h(f(x)) in g(x)
g(x) = x+3
g(h(f(x)))= (3x-6/x) + 3
= 3x-6/x + 3
= 3x-6+3x/x
= 6x-6/x
So, Option B is correct.
