Since the expressions for f(x) and g(x) are already given, f(g(2)) means to substitute the value of 2 to the expression of g(x), then further substituting the obtained value of g(2) into the expression of f(x). This is shown below:
f(x) = x + 8
g(x) = x^2 - 6x - 7
f(g(x) = x^2 - 6x - 7 + 8
f(g(2)) = 2^2 - 6(2) + 1
f(g(2)) = 4 - 12 + 1
f(g(2)) = -7
Therefore, the correct answer is -7.
It is between c 12 and d 13
12 cartons will be 15
and 13 will be 16.3
Factor the following:
2 x^3 + x^2 - 18 x - 9
Factor terms by grouping. 2 x^3 + x^2 - 18 x - 9 = (2 x^3 + x^2) + (-18 x - 9) = x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1):
x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1)
Factor 2 x + 1 from x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1):
(2 x + 1) (x^2 - 9)
x^2 - 9 = x^2 - 3^2:
(2 x + 1) (x^2 - 3^2)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 3^2 = (x - 3) (x + 3):
Answer: (x - 3) (x + 3) (2 x + 1) thus the Answer is C.
It would be the last option. I just worked the problem out and figured it out. I hope this helped! (:
