Answer:

r(s(-2)) = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given these following functions:

$r(x) = -2x + 2$

$s(x) = x^2 - 2$

Find the value of r(s (-2)).

First we find the composition of r and s functions. It is:

$r(s(x)) = r(x^2-2) = -2(x^2-2) + 2 = -2x^2 + 6$

At x = -2

$r(s(-2)) = -2(-2)^2 + 6 = -8 + 6 = -2$

r(s(-2)) = -2

i. If we raise a number to an exponent of 1, we get the same number.

${10}^{1} = 10$

ii. If we raise 10 to an exponent of 2, it means we multiply 10 by itself two times.

${10}^{2} = 10 \times 10 = 100$

iii. If we raise 10 to an exponent of 3, it means we multiply 10 by itself three times.

${10}^{3} = 10 \times {10}^{2} = 10 \times 100 = 1000$

iv. If we raise 10 to an exponent of 4, it means we multiply 10 by itself four times.

${10}^{4} = 10 \times {10}^{3} = 10 \times 1000 = 10000$

v. If we raise 10 to an exponent of 5, it means we multiply 10 by itself five times.

${10}^{5} = 10 \times {10}^{4} = 10 \times 10000 = 100000$

${10}^{5} = 100000$

vi. Recall that,

${a}^{ - m} = \frac{1}{ {a}^{m} }$
We apply this law of exponents to obtain,

${10}^{ - 2} = \frac{1}{{10}^{2} } = \frac{1}{100}$

vii. We apply
${a}^{ - m} = \frac{1}{ {a}^{m} }$
again to obtain,

${10}^{ - 3} = \frac{1}{ {10}^{3} } = \frac{1}{1000}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Base is 6 in

Height is 4 in

To get the area of a triangle is 1/2 Base × Height

Being 1/2(6)(4) = 12

To get the area of a rectangle is Length × Width being 9 × 8 = 72

Turn everything into decimal form, then divide by 2.
To turn into decimal divide the numerator by the denominator, and leave the whole number as it is.
For slide 1

45.4/2=22.6

For side 2

Gusset plate is 1....
take 5.75 and divide it by 2 =2.875
Take 3.333/2 = 1.6665
