How should I solve for x and what is x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
algol [13]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x =12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

16^2 + x^2 = 20^2

256 +x^2 = 400

Subtract 256 from each side

256-256 +x^2 = 400-256

x^2 =144

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(144)

x = 12

F(g(x)) where you see an 'x' in f(x) put a g:

f(g(x)) = 1/(g-7), now step by step: g - 7 = 6/x+7-7=6/x, and 1/(g-7)=1/(6/x)=x/6!

I let the second one for you. Sorry if you disagree!
