Answer:
1. 144 2. 16 3. 1 4. 3x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
So think of this as a function in a function. So you work from the inside to the outside. So for problem 1, we start with f(4)) [you read it "f of 4"] so what is the solution when x = 4, since f(x) means the function of x so f(4) means 'the function of 4' inside f(x).
Since f(x) = 3x then f(4) = 3(4) [notice how you substitute the 4 everywhere you see a letter x]
so f(4) = 12, now you work the next part h(f(4)) since f(4)=12 then h(12)
So take the h(x) function which is h(x) = 
then h(12) = 
so h(12) = 144
Because when you divide you get the same answer or something to do with percents
A large company wanted to know how the average salary of their employees had changed over the last year. the results of their study had a p-value of 0.12and showed that the average salary had increased by $1,500 from $20,000 to $21,500. The results were practically significant but not statistically significant.
Answer:
8x - 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x - 5,
g(x) = 4x -1,
substituting g(x) as x in f(x),
f(g(x)) = 2(4x - 1) - 5
= 8x - 7
First, the factor pairs for 18 are:
1, 18
2, 9
3, 6
Since the middle term is -3, the two factors must be 3 apart. The only pair that is 3 values apart is 3, 6.
Since the middle value is negative, the larger number is negative. This means that the 6 is negative.
z = -6
z = 3
Set each equal to 0;
z = -6
z + 6 = 0
z = 3
z - 3 =0
So your factors are (z+6) and (z-3), or answer B.
