hoa [83]3 years ago

3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 200

x : y = 4 : 6

x + y = 200

y = 200 - x

x : y = 4 : 6

x : (200 - x) = 4 : 6

6.x = 4(200 - x)

6x = 800 - 4x

10x = 800

x = 800/10

x = 80

y = 200 - x

y = 200 - 80

y = 120

(x,y) = (80,120)

If f x equals x -3 + g x equals 1 - x 2 - 9 find ( f og) (x and give any restrictions on its domain

evablogger [386]

$\begin{gathered} f(x)=x-3 \\ g(x)=\frac{1}{x^2-9} \\ (\text{fog)(x)}=\frac{1}{x^2-9}-3 \end{gathered}$

the denominator cannot be zero, because the division by zero is not defined, therefore:

$\begin{gathered} x^2-9=0 \\ \text{Solving for x:} \\ x^2=9 \\ \sqrt[]{x^2}=\sqrt[]{9} \\ x=\pm3 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the domain of (f o g)(x) is:

$D\colon(-\infty,-3)\cup(-3,3)\cup(3,\infty)$

Geometry

Vertical Angles - Angles that are directly opposite of each other are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set Up Equation

(x + 7)° = (5x - 49)°

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract x on both sides: 7 = 4x - 49
Add 49 on both sides: 56 = 4x
Divide 4 on both sides: 14 = x
Rewrite: x = 14

Step 3: Find angle measure

Define: (x + 7)°
Substitute in x: (14 + 7)°
Add: 21°
