If f(x)=8-10x and g(x) =5x +4, what is the value of (fog)(-2)?

Answer:

68

Step-by-step explanation:

Any function is evaluated by putting the argument value where the variable is, then doing the arithmetic. When the argument is another function value, that function value is evaluated first.

__

<h3>f∘g</h3>

The "o" in (fog) is a stand-in for the "ring operator" (∘) which is the operator used to signify a composition. A composition is evaluated right-to-left. That means (f∘g)(x) ≡ f(g(x)). The value of g(x) is found first, and is operated on by the function f.

Writing the composition in the form f(g(x)) lets you identify the layers of parentheses. As with any expression evaluation, the Order of Operations applies. It tells you to evaluate the expression in the innermost parentheses and work your way out.

<h3>g(-2)</h3>

To evaluate (f∘g)(-2) = f(g(-2)), we must first evaluate g(-2). That is ...

g(x) = 5x +4

g(-2) = 5(-2) +4 = -10 +4 = -6 . . . . . put -2 where x is, do the math

<h3>f(g(-2))</h3>

Now that we know g(-2) = -6, we know this expression is ...

f(-6) = 8 -10(-6) = 8 +60 = 68 . . . . . substitute for x in 8-10x

Then the value we're looking for is ...

(f∘g)(-2) = 68

Answer:

x = 24.

r $\ne$ 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The given equation is:

$\frac{1}{2} (x - 4) = \frac{1}{3} x + 2$

a) To eliminate the fractions multiply the equation throughout by the LCM of the denominators of the fraction. In this case, the LCM of (2, 3). The LCM is 6. So, multiply the entire equation by 6.

b) Half of the difference between an integer and 4 equals the sum of one - third of the integer and 2. Find the integer.

c) We have the equation:

$\frac{1}{2} (x - 4) = \frac{1}{3} x + 2$

Multiplying throughout by 6, we get:

$\frac{6}{2}(x - 4) = \frac{6}{3} x + 6(2)$

$\implies 3(x - 4) = 2x + 12$

$\implies 3x - 12 = 2x + 12$

$\implies x = 24$

Therefore, the solution of the equation is 24.

3. The given equation is: $ry + s = tx - m$

To solve for y:

We can rearrange the equation as:

$ry = tx - m - s$

$\implies y = \frac{tx - m - s}{r}$

or, $y = \frac{tx - (m + s)}{r}$

Note that we have to impose a condition on variable $r$ . It would be that $r$ can never be zero. i.e., $r \ne 0$ . Otherwise, the value of $y$ would be undefined.
