If f(x) = -5x - 1 and g(x) = x - 6 what is (f g) (7)

Cloud [144]

You have

$(f\circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) \implies (f\circ g)(7) = f(g(7))$

So, we have to compute g(7) and feed it as input to f(x). We have

$g(7)=7-6=1 \implies f(g(7))=f(1)=-5-1=-6$

djyliett [7]

We know that the volume is: V = 1 gallon = 231 in³
Also : r = 3 in.
The volume of a cylinder: V = r² π h
231 = 3³ · 3.14 · h
231 = 9 · 3.14 · h
231 = 28.26 h
h = 231 : 28.26
h = 8.17 ≈ 8 in
Answer: C) 8 in.
