Answer:
When f or g are equivalent to a number you are solving for x. For example b, d, e, f. In the equation g(x) =2x2-5 I assumed 2 was a typo. So, if it's incorrect, please use same steps and just adjust the solution.
Step-by-step explanation:

a)

b) 




c) 


d) 



e) 



f) 



Answer:
α² +β² = 3 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming α and β are solutions to the equation, it can be factored as ...
(x -α)(x -β) = 0
Expanding this, we get ...
x² -(α +β)x +αβ = 0
Dividing the original equation by 3, we find ...
x² +(1/3)x -5/3 ≡ x² -(α+β)x +αβ ⇒ (α+β) = -1/3, αβ = -5/3
We know that the square (α+β)² can be expanded to ...
(α +β)² = α² +β² +2αβ
α² +β² = (α +β)² -2αβ . . . . . . subtract 2αβ
Substituting the values for (α+β) and αβ, we find the desired expression is ...
α² +β² = (-1/3)² -2(-5/3) = 1/9 +10/3 = 31/9
α² +β² = 3 4/9
Answer:
$20.40
Step-by-step explanation:
20% off means that the new price of the skirt will be 80% of the original price:
$30(100% – 20%) = $30(80%)
Converting the percent to a decimal gives:
$30(0.8) = $24.00
There is an additional 15% off the sale price of $24.00, so the final price is 85% of the sale price:
$24(100% – 15%) = $24(85%)
Again converting the percent to a decimal gives:
$24(0.85) = $20.40
I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2
x = -8, 3/2</span>
Answer:
A) The equation for circumference is C=2piR. So Filling in for circle A we have 28.26=2*pi*4.5 so we want to isolate pi which I'm gonna call x for it's easier for me xD. So we're gonna start by dividing 4.5 from each side which is gonna leave us with 6.28=2*x which gives you x(pi)= 3.14. For circle B we have 15.70=2*x*2.5 isolate x by first dividing 2.5 which leaves us again with 6.28=2x and x= 3.14.
B) The equation for area is A=piR^2. So again for circle A we have 63.585=x9^2. This one is harder but also are you sure that the area is 63.585 it's supposed to be 254.469 (We'll come back to this)
C) The observation you can make about the value of pi for circles A and B is that it stays consistent at 3.14
hoped i helped : )
