The required composite value f(g(-8) is 28

A composite function is a function inside another function. Given the following functions

f(x) = x² - 3x - 12

g(x) = -x - 12

Required composite function is f(g(-8))

First we need to get f(g(x))

f(g(x)) = f(-x-12)

f(-x-12) = (-x-12)² - 3x - 12

Expand

f(-x-12) = x² +24x + 144 - 3x - 12

f(-x-12) = x² +21x + 132

f(g(x)) = x² +21x + 132

Substitute x = -8 into the result

f(g(-8)) = (-8)² +21(-8) + 132

f(g(-8)) = 64 - 168 + 132

f(g(-8)) = 28

Hence the required composite value f(g(-8) is 28

the total attendance at a concert in a theater hall was 1500, of this total 400 were children,850 were women , and the remaining

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Below!

Step-by step explanation:

We know that:

400 + 850 + m = 1500

Solution of Question A:

Percent of children: Total children/Total attendance

=> 400/1500
=> 4/15
=> 0.27 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
=> 0.27 x 100
=> 27%

Hence, the percent of children is about 27%.

Solution of Question B:

Percent of women: Total women/Total attendance

=> 850/1500
=> 85/150
=> 17/30
=> 17/30 x 100
=> 17/3 x 10
=> 170/3
=> 56.67%

Hence, the percent of women is 56.67%.

Solution of Question C:

400 + 850 + m = 1500
=> 1250 + m = 1500
=> m = 1500 - 1250
=> m = 250

Percent of men: Total men/Total attendance

=> 250/1500
=> 1/6
=> 0.17 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
=> 0.17 x 100
=> 17%

Hence, the percent of men is about 17%

If the circumference of a circle is 24, and the angle measure of an arc is 120°, which is the length of the arc?

kupik [55]

Using radian meansure
theta = (arc length)/radius
---
arc length = radius*theta
----
Your Problem:
120 degrees = 120(pi/180) = (2/3)pi radians

----
circumference = 2pi*r
24 = 2pi*r
r = 12/pi
-------------
arc length = (12/pi)(2/3)pi = 8 units

7. A battery manufacturer makes batteries that have a failure rate of .015. That is, 15 out of each 1,000 batteries are defectiv

azamat

The answer to this probability question is .86 or 86%. The probability that a batch of 10,000 batteries will contain at least 175 defective batteries is 86 percent. I calculated the failure rate of 10,000 batteries (10k*.015) and yielded 150, meaning there will be 150 batteries that will be defective in a set of 10,000. Then i divided 150 by 175 to get the probability.
