Work Shown:
Part 1

Notice how I replaced every x with g(x) in step 2. Then I plugged in g(x) = x^2+6 and simplified.
------------------
Part 2

In step 4, I used the rule (a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2
In this case, a = sqrt(x-1) and b = 5.
You could also use the box method as a visual way to expand out 
im not sure but its either A Or D
Step-by-step explanation:
because the points are on that point
Answer: a=8 and b=1
Step-by-step explanation:
If x represents the paddling speed, and y represents the speed of the current.
Then Relative speed in upstream =x-y
Relative time in downstream=x-y
When she paddles upstream then distance covered by her=
⇒8=(x-y)2 or 2(x-y)=8
Thus we get, a=1
When she paddles downstream then distance covered by her=
⇒8=(x+y)1 or 1(x+y)=8
Thus we get b=1
Substitute
12(3) + (52)
12(3) = 36
36 + 52 = 88
