Numbers with more than two divisors are called composite numbers. The first 20 primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, and 71.
This is a mistake, there is no shading like there is supposed to be, tell your teacher she will understand that this page got printed wrongly
The table in correct format is attached below.
Total number of runners = n = 724 + 103 = 827
Number of Runners who do not bike = x = 103
Percentage of runners who do not bike =
x 100%
x 100%
= 12.5%
Thus, 12.5% of Runners do not ride bike for exercise
Answer: Choice A
g(x) = sqrt(2x)
====================================================
Explanation:
"sqrt(x)" is shorthand for "square root of x"
f(x) = 3x^2 is given
g( f(x) ) = x*sqrt(6) is also given
One way to find the answer is through trial and error. This would only apply of course if we're given a list of multiple choice answers.
------------------
Let's start with choice A
g(x) = sqrt(2x)
g( f(x) ) = sqrt(2 * f(x) ) .... replace every x with f(x)
g( f(x) ) = sqrt(2 * 3x^2 ) .... plug in f(x) = 3x^2
g( f(x) ) = sqrt(6x^2 )
g( f(x) ) = sqrt(x^2 * 6)
g( f(x) ) = sqrt(x^2)*sqrt(6)
g( f(x) ) = x*sqrt(6)
We found the answer on the first try. So we don't need to check the others.
------------------
But let's try choice B to see one where it doesn't work out
g(x) = sqrt(x + 3)
g( f(x) ) = sqrt( f(x) + 3)
g( f(x) ) = sqrt(3x^2 + 3)
and we can't go any further other than maybe to factor 3x^2+3 into 3(x^2+1), but that doesn't help things much to be able to break up the root into anything useful. We can graph y = x*sqrt(6) and y = sqrt(3x^2 + 3) to see they are two different curves, so there's no way they are equivalent expressions.
