The value of the function f(g) after simplifying and putting 2 in place of <em>x</em> is -20 and the value of f(g(2)) is 418.

<h3>What is composite function?</h3>

When a function is written inside the another function, then such function is called the composite function.

The first function given in the problem is,

f(x) = x^2 - x - 2

The second function given,

g(x) = - 6x - 8

To find out the value of g(2), put the 2 on place of variable x in the above equation as,

g(2) = - 6(2) - 8\\g(2)=-12-8\\g(2)=-20

The composite function f(g(x)) can be given as,

f(g(2))= (-20)^2 - (-20) - 2\\f(g(2))=418

Thus, the value of the function f(g) after simplifying and putting 2 in place of <em>x</em> is -20 and the value of f(g(2)) is 418.

The cost of item A is $8 and the
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: the number of item A that you sold is 11

the number of item B that you sold is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of item A that you sold.

Let y represent the number of item B that you sold.

The total number of item A and item B sold is 13. This means that

x + y = 13

The cost of item A is $8 and the

cost of item B is $4. The total amount if money made is $88. This means that

8x + 4y = 88 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 13 - y into equation 1, it becomes

8(13 - y) + 4y = 88

104 - 8y = 88

8y = 104 - 88 = 16

y = 16/8 = 2

x = 13 - y = 13 - 2 = 11

Answer:

  A

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean triple (8, 15, 17) is often seen in algebra and geometry problems. You recognize it as choice A, so you know that is a right triangle.

__

A spreadsheet or graphing calculator can perform the tedium of comparing the sum of squares of the shorter sides to the square of the longer side. The attachment shows a spreadsheet used for that purpose. It identifies the triple (8, 15, 17) as the sides of a right triangle.
