Hello there!
I'm assuming since there is no question, that you want an explanation for composite functions.
Today, I want to introduce you to a very new way of looking at functions. Think of a function as a machine. I'll call this machine f. When you plug something into this machine, it is an x-value. The machine changes the x-value into a new value which is called a y-value. This is how a function works.
With composite functions though, things get a little bit tricky. To make f(g(x)), you need to plug in x into the g machine, and it will give you an output. (y-value) The next thing you do is take that y-value and plug it into the g machine. The g machine then gives you a new value. This value is f(g(x)).
Let's do an example together...
f(x)=3x and g(x)=x²+4
if we want f(g(x)), first plug in x to the g machine. when plugging in x to the g machine, we get x²+4 as given in the question.
Now we must plug in g(x) into the f machine. Since g(x) is x²+4, we just replace x with x²+4.
We get 3(x²+4)
This means that f(g(x))=3(x²+4)

I hope this helps!

First question:
interest rate is 5% annually. After 4 years relative value of interest will be 1.05^4
Now we multiply that with starting funds and get
4000* 1.05^4 = 4862.03
Second question:
Because interest is 8% semiannually that means that after 35 years relative value of interest will be 1.04^(35*2)
6000*1.04^70 = 93,429.71
Third question:
after first year tractor's value will be 0.86*15450. After 3 years its value will be:
(0.86)^3*15,450 = 9,827.07
The answer is 2.625$ rounded up to 2.63$
pretty much about the same as before.
a = weight of a large box
b = weight of a small box.
we know their combined weight is 65 lbs, thus a + b = 65.
we also know that the truck has 60 large ones, and 55 small ones, thus 60*a is the total weight for the large ones and 55*b is the total weight for the small ones, and we know that is a total of 3775, 60a + 55b = 3775.
Answer:
