So the question is asking: (x-4)(x-2)
because there is a bracket in between the two expressions it means we have to multiply them together: (x-4) x (x-2)
you can break down the question into smaller parts:
x multiply x
x multiply -2
-4 multiply x
-4 multiply -2
here are the answers:
x^2 (means x squared)
-2x
-4x
8 (because when you multiply two negative numbers it makes a positive)
now you put it into an expression (this is expanding):
x^2 - 2x - 4x + 8
to simplify it you collect like terms:
x^2 - 6x + 8
The above is the answer :)
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
Given the parent function:

If we shift the graph of f(x), 5 units to the left, then the new rule is

If we again, shift this graph upward by 4 units, then the completely transformed function will have the rule,

Or

Find area of square: 7^2 = 49
Find radius of circle: 7/2=3.5
find area of circle: 3.5^2*3.14=38.465
Remove area of circle from area of square:
49-38.465=10.535 cm^2
Answer A is the correct one :)
Answer:
f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions
Step-by-step explanation:
In the two functions f(x) and g(x) if, f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x, then
f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions
Let us use this rule to solve the question
∵ f(x) = 3x²
∵ g(x) = 
→ Find f(g(x)) by substitute x in f(x) by g(x)
∴ f(g(x)) = 3(
)²
→ Cancel the square root with power 2
∴ f(g(x)) = 3(
)
→ Cancel the 3 up with the 3 down
∴ f(g(x)) = x
→ Find g(f(x)) by substitute x in g(x) by f(x)
∴ g(f(x)) = 
→ Cancel the 3 up with the 3 down
∴ g(f(x)) = 
→ Cancel the square root with power 2
∴ g(f(x)) = x
∵ f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x
→ By using the rule above
∴ f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions
Answer:
10/39
Step-by-step explanation:
The chances of picking a black sock on first try are 8/13, and the chances of picking out a yellow sock without replacing the black sock are 5/12. If you multiply 8/13 and 5/12, you get 40/156, and if you simplify, you will get 10/39 as your answer.
