Answer:

x-73

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x=Jose's height.  If it says "less than," then that is subtraction.  Since Jose's height is not defined, there is no specific number that can be used to describe "73 less than twice Jose's height," so I use the variable x, and then subtract 73.

Consider these functions:
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The value of f(g(-2)) is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll start by solving g(-2):

g(-2)\\= (-2)^2 + 2\\= 4 + 2\\= 6

Now we can take that value and plug it into function f:

f(6)\\= \frac{-1}{2}6^2 + 5 * 6\\= -36/2 + 30\\= -18 + 30\\= 12

Alternatively, you can work out a new single function that in itself describes f(g())

f(g(x)) = -\frac{1}{2}g(x)^2 + 5g(x)\\= -\frac{1}{2}(x^2 + 2)^2 + 5(x^2 + 2)\\= -\frac{1}{2}(x^4 + 4x^2 + 4) + 5x^2 + 10\\= -\frac{1}{2}x^4 - 2x^2 - 2 + 5x^2 + 10\\= -\frac{x^4}{2} + 3x^2 + 8

and try plugging -2 into the new function

= - \frac{-2^4}{2} + 3(-2)^2 + 8\\= -16 / 2 + 3 * 4 + 8\\= -8 + 12 + 8\\= 12

Factor completely: 3x2 + 2x - 1. Answer. (3x + 1)(x + 1). (3x + 1)(x - 1). (3x - 1)(x + 1). (3x - 1)(x - 1).
ankoles [38]
The correct answer for this question is "<span>(3x - 1)(x + 1).</span><span>"</span>
This is how to factor the given polynomial:
<span>3x2 + 2x - 1
</span><span>(3x - 1) (x + 1) 

It takes trial and error in order to get the final factor of a given polynomial. It has to be exact and correctly done.</span>

At a picnic there were 3 times as many adults as children and twice as many women as men. If there was a total of x men, women,
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

\dfrac{x}{4}

C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

At a picnic,

Number of adults is 3 times as number of children.

Number of women is twice as number of men.

Total number of men, women and children at the picnic be x

Let number of children be c

Let number of men be m

Let number of women be w

# Number of women is twice as number of men, w = 2m

# Number of adults is 3 times as number of children, w + m = 3c

      2m + m = 3c     (∴  w=2m )

                c = m

Total number of men, women and children at the picnic be x

∵       c + m + w = x

     m + m + 2m = x

                    4m = x

Number of men, m=\dfrac{x}{4}

Hence, The total number of men will be  \dfrac{x}{4}
