-0.75-(-2/5)+0.4+(-3/4)
RSB [31]

-0.75-(-2/5)+0.4+(-3/4) =  -0.7 simplified, how I got this answer can be found below in 16 steps.

1 - First thing we want to do is remove the parentheses.

-0.75 - (-2/5) + 0.4 - 3/4

2 - Then we simplify, multiply -1 by -1.

-0.75 + 1 (2/5) + 0.4 - 3/4

3 - Then multiply 2/5 by 1.

-0.75 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

4 - Then we want to write - 0.75/1 as a fraction with a common denominator, we do this by multiplying by 5/5.

-0.75/1 * 5/5 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

5 - Then we write each expression with a common denominator of 5, we multiply each one by a factor of one.

-0.75 * 5/1*5 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

6 - Then we multiply 5 by 1.

-0.75 * 5 / 5 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

7 - Then we combine the numerators over the common denominator.

-0.75*5+2/5+0.4-3/4

8 - We multiply -0.75 by 5.

-3.75 + 2/5 + 0.4 - 3/4

9 - Then we add -3.75 and 2.

-1.75/5+0.4-3/4

10 - And then we divide -1.75 by 5.

-0.35 + 0.4 - 3/4

11 - Then add -0.35 and 0.4.

0.05 - 3/4

12 - We then write 0.05/1 as a fraction with a common denominator, we do this via multiplying it by 4/4.

0.05/1 * 4/4 - 3/4

13 - Then we write each expression with a common denominator of 4, through multiplying each by a factor of 1.

0.05 * 4/4 - 3/4

14 - We combine the numerators over the common denominator.

0.05 * 4 - 3 / 4

15 - We simplify.

-2.8 / 4

16 - Then we divide -2.8 / 4

The final answer is -0.7

Given g(x)=Squareroot x-4 and h(x)=2x-8, what is g(h(10))
yan [13]

Answer:

g(h(10)) = 2\sqrt 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

g(x) = \sqrt {x - 4

h(x) = 2x - 8

Required

g(h(10))

First, calculate g(h(x))

We have:

g(x) = \sqrt {x - 4

This gives:

g(h(x)) = \sqrt {h(x) - 4

Substitute h(x) = 2x - 8

g(h(x)) = \sqrt {2x - 8 - 4

g(h(x)) = \sqrt {2x - 12

Substitute x = 10

g(h(10)) = \sqrt {2*10 - 12

g(h(10)) = \sqrt {20 - 12

g(h(10)) = \sqrt {8\\

Split

g(h(10)) = \sqrt {4} * \sqrt 2

This gives

g(h(10)) = 2\sqrt 2
