1/4=25%
3/8=37.5%
37.5%+25%=62.5%
62.5%=0.625
5/0.625=8
Morgan has 8 pounds of raisins in her supply.

Question 1) Given: F(x) = 3x^2 + 1, G(x) = 2x - 3, H(x) = x

USPshnik [31]

Question 1)

Given: F(x) = 3x^2 + 1, G(x) = 2x - 3, H(x) = x

F(G(x)) = 3(2x - 3)^2 + 1

F(G(x)) =3(4x^2 - 12x + 9) + 1

F(G(x)) = 12x^2 - 36x + 27 + 1

F(G(x)) =12x^2 - 36x + 28

Question 2)

Given: F(x) = 3x^2 + 1, G(x) = 2x - 3, H(x) = x

H -1 (x) = x (inverse)

Find+the+positive+value+for+α+if+the+radius+of+the+circle+3x^2+3y-6αx+12y-3α=0+is+4

Alik [6]

Answer:

$\alpha=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of a Circle</u>

A circle of radius r and centered on the point (h,k) can be expressed by the equation

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

We are given the equation of a circle as

$3x^2+3y^2-6\alpha x+12y-3\alpha=0$

Note we have corrected it by adding the square to the y. Simplify by 3

$x^2+y^2-2\alpha x+4y-\alpha=0$

Complete squares and rearrange:

$x^2-2\alpha x+y^2+4y=\alpha$

$x^2-2\alpha x+\alpha^2+y^2+4y+4=\alpha+\alpha^2+4$

$(x-\alpha)^2+(y+2)^2=r^2$

We can see that, if r=4, then

$\alpha+\alpha^2+4=16$

Or, equivalently

$\alpha^2+\alpha-12=0$

There are two solutions for $\alpha$ :

$\alpha=-4,\ \alpha=3$

Keeping the positive solution, as required:

$\boxed{\alpha=3}$
