Samantha works at a bakery. The function f(x) = 3x2 − 5 represents the amount of money Samantha earns per cookie, where x is the

number of cookies she makes. The function g of x equals square root of quantity 5 times x cubed end quantity represents the number of cookies Samantha bakes per hour, where x is the number of hours she works. Find f(g(x)), and explain what it represents.

Answer:

f(g(x)) = 15x³ - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

how confusingly described.

let me try and summarize what I understood :

f(x) = 3x² - 5

money earned when baking x cookies.

g(x) = sqrt(5x³)

the amount of cookies baked in x hours.

f(g(x)) now calculates how much money she earns when baking for x hours.

it is basically very simple : instead of f(x) we have f(g(x)), so g(x) is used as argument/variable in f instead of just plain x.

therefore,

f(g(x)) = 3×(sqrt(5x³))² - 5

with x now representing the baking hours, but f(...) calculating the overall money earned, by implicitly (!) calculating the amount of cookies baked in that time and taking that result automatically to calculate the earned money.

let's simplify this a little bit more.

f(g(x)) = 3×(sqrt(5x³))² - 5 = 3×(5x³) - 5 = 15x³ - 5

Find any points of discontinuity for each rational function. Sketch a graph. Describe any verticals or horizontal asympyoyes and
AVprozaik [17]
For
  y = (x^2 -4)/((x +2)(x^2 -49))
the numerator factors to (x -2)(x +2), so the factor of (x +2) will cancel with that in the denominator, leaving
  y = (x -2)/(x^2 -49)

There are points of discontinuity at the hole, x=-2, and at each of the vertical asymptotes, at x=-7, +7.
The horizontal asymptote is y=0.

Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (3, 10) and (7, 8).
Stels [109]

Answer:

Option 2 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates of lines segment (3, 10) and (7, 8). we have to find the mid-point of given line segment.

Mid-point formula states that if (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) are the coordinates of end points of line segment then the coordinates of mid-point are

(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

∴ Coordinates of mid-point of line segment joining the points          (3, 10) and (7, 8) are

(\frac{3+7}{2},\frac{10+8}{2})=(\frac{10}{2},\frac{18}{2})=(5,9)

Hence, option 2 is correct.
