Answer:

-7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for the composite g(f(2)). The simplest way to solve this is to evaluate f(2) and enter the solution in to your g function.

g(f(2))=g(-(2)^2-2(2)+4)=g(-4-4+4)=g(-4)

g(-4)=4/(-4(-4)-2)=4/(16-2)=4/14=2/7

Therfor, g(f(2))=2/7 **I'm assuming the -4x-2 is all in the denominator of the g(x) function. If -2 is not in the denominator you would have

g(f(2))=4/(-4(-4)) -2=4/16 -2=1/4 -2=1/4-8/4= -7/4

Answer:

$\dfrac{2s^3+136}{s}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side length of the square base =s feet

Let the height of the box = h

Given that the volume of the box = $34$ ft^3$

Volume of the box = $s^2h$

Then:

$s^2h=34$ ft^3\\$Divide both sides by s^2\\h=\dfrac{34}{s^2}$

Surface Area of a Rectangular Prism =2(lb+bh+lh)

Since we have a square base, l=b=s feet

Therefore:

Surface Area of our closed box $= 2(s^2+sh+sh)$

$S$urface Area= 2s^2+4sh\\Recall: h=\dfrac{34}{s^2}\\$Surface Area= 2s^2+4s\left(\dfrac{34}{s^2}\right)\\=2s^2+\dfrac{136}{s}\\$Surface Area in terms of length only=\dfrac{2s^3+136}{s}$

An item costs $45.60. If there is a 30% discount on the item, what is the discounted cost of the item?

kondor19780726 [428]

Discounted Cost= Cost of Item - (Cost of Item * % Discount)

= $45.60 - ($45.60 * 30%)
convert % to decimal (30% ÷ 100)

= 45.60 - (45.60 * 0.30)
multiply in parentheses

= 45.60 - 13.68

= $31.92 discounted cost

ANSWER: The discounted cost of the item is $31.92 (savings of $13.68).

Hope this helps! :)
