Answer:

B. f(g(x)) = -10x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

When evaluating f(g(x)), substitute what g(x) is in place of g(x).

So instead of

f(g(x))

the function would be:

f(-5x + 6).

Now all you have to do is evaluate this.

To evaluate this function, substitute the value inside the f(x) for all instances of x in the equation.

f(x) = 2x - 4

f(-5x + 6) = 2(-5x + 6) - 4

f(-5x + 6) = -10x + 12 - 4

f(-5x + 6) = -10x + 8

Therefore, f(g(x)) = -10x + 8.

Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0,2π) sec(theta) +2=0
Komok [63]
I will first reveal the most obvious secret of trig: Most of the problems are 30/60/90 or 45/45/90 triangles of some sort.

\sec \theta + 2  = 0

\dfrac{1 }{ \cos \theta} = -2

\cos \theta = - \frac 1 2

The rule to remember is \cos x = \cos a has solutions

x = \pm a + 2 \pi k \quad integer k

Continuing where we left off, a cosine of -1/2 is a 30/60/90 triangle in the second or third quadrant; we pick second, and a little thought tells us the angle is  120^\circ.

\cos \theta = - \frac 1 2

\cos \theta = \cos \frac {2\pi} 3

\theta = \pm \frac {2\pi} 3 + 2 \pi k \quad integer k

In the range we want, that's k=0 with the plus sign and k=1 with the minus, so 

\theta = \frac {2\pi} 3 or -\frac {2\pi} 3 + 2 \pi = \frac{4 \pi} 3

\theta = \frac {2\pi} 3 or \frac{4 \pi} 3

I need help solving this problem
guapka [62]

Answer:

- 5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

tans = 5/12 = height/base

Using Pythagoras, hypotenuse = √12² + 5² = 13

Therefore coss had to be 12/13

But since cos s < 0, cos s = - 12/13

Thus,

tanA = sinA/cosA

tanA cosA = sinA

(5/12)(- 12/13) = sinA

- 5/13 = sinA
