Answer: 17</h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
We'll start things off by computing the inner function u(2)
Plug x = 2 into the u(x) function
u(x) = -x-1
u(2) = -2-1
u(2) = -3
This tells us that w(u(2)) is the same as w(-3). I replaced u(2) with -3.
We'll plug x = -3 into the w(x) function
w(x) = 2x^2-1
w(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - 1
w(-3) = 2(9) - 1
w(-3) = 18-1
w(-3) = 17
Therefore, w(u(2)) = 17
------------------------
Here's a slightly different approach:
Let's find what w(u(x)) is in general
w(x) = 2x^2 - 1
w(u(x)) = 2(u(x))^2 - 1
w(u(x)) = 2(-x-1)^2 - 1
Then we can plug in x = 2
w(u(x)) = 2(-x-1)^2 - 1
w(u(2)) = 2(-2-1)^2 - 1
w(u(2)) = 2(-3)^2 - 1
w(u(2)) = 2(9) - 1
w(u(2)) = 18 - 1
w(u(2)) = 17
Answer:
57
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cone is given by the formula ...
V = (1/3)πr²h
For a pile with a radius of 8.5 m and a height of 9 m, the volume is ...
V = (1/3)π(8.5 m)²(9 m) = 216.75π m³ ≈ 680.94 m³
Then the number of truckloads required to create that size pile will be ...
(680.94 m³)/(12 m³/truck) = 56.745 trucks
Even a partial truck load entails another trip, so ...
57 truck loads of sand are needed.
Answer:
no it isn't
Step-by-step explanation:
if you find all of the angles using the angle addition postulate and supplementary angles rule (add to 180 degrees), you will be left with an angle that is not able to satisfy either of these rules, 75
60
