1/2 of 40 is 20, and the question says 1/4 of the REMAINING cookies, and 1/4 of 20 is 5. There are 3/4 left, or 15 cookies. I hope this helps!

F(x)=3x 2 +9f, left parenthesis, x, right parenthesis, equals, 3, x, squared, plus, 9 and g(x)=\dfrac{1}{3}x^2-9g(x)= 3 1 x 2

Answer:

$f(g(x)) = \frac{1}{3}x^4 - 18x^2 + 252$

$g(f(x)) = 3x^4 + 18x^2 + 18$

<em>f(x) and g(x) and not inverse functions</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 3x^2 + 9$

$g(x) = \dfrac{1}{3}x^2 - 9$

Required

Determine f(g(x))

Determine g(f(x))

Determine if both functions are inverse:

Calculating f(g(x))

$f(x) = 3x^2 + 9$

$f(g(x)) = 3(\frac{1}{3}x^2 - 9)^2 + 9$

$f(g(x)) = 3(\frac{1}{3}x^2 - 9)(\frac{1}{3}x^2 - 9) + 9$

Expand Brackets

$f(g(x)) = (x^2 - 27)(\frac{1}{3}x^2 - 9) + 9$

$f(g(x)) = x^2(\frac{1}{3}x^2 - 9) - 27(\frac{1}{3}x^2 - 9) + 9$

$f(g(x)) = \frac{1}{3}x^4 - 9x^2 - 9x^2 + 243 + 9$

$f(g(x)) = \frac{1}{3}x^4 - 18x^2 + 252$

Calculating g(f(x))

$g(x) = \dfrac{1}{3}x^2 - 9$

$g(f(x)) = \frac{1}{3}(3x^2 + 9)^2 - 9$

$g(f(x)) = \frac{1}{3}(3x^2 + 9)(3x^2 + 9) - 9$

$g(f(x)) = (x^2 + 3)(3x^2 + 9) - 9$

Expand Brackets

$g(f(x)) = x^2(3x^2 + 9) + 3(3x^2 + 9) - 9$

$g(f(x)) = 3x^4 + 9x^2 + 9x^2 + 27 - 9$

$g(f(x)) = 3x^4 + 18x^2 + 18$

Checking for inverse functions

$f(x) = 3x^2 + 9$

Represent f(x) with y

$y = 3x^2 + 9$

Swap positions of x and y

$x = 3y^2 + 9$

Subtract 9 from both sides

$x - 9 = 3y^2 + 9 - 9$

$x - 9 = 3y^2$

$3y^2 = x - 9$

Divide through by 3

$\frac{3y^2}{3} = \frac{x}{3} - \frac{9}{3}$

$y^2 = \frac{x}{3} - 3$

Take square root of both sides

$\sqrt{y^2} = \sqrt{\frac{x}{3} - 3}$

$y = \sqrt{\frac{x}{3} - 3}$

Represent y with g(x)

$g(x) = \sqrt{\frac{x}{3} - 3}$

Note that the resulting value of g(x) is not the same as $g(x) = \dfrac{1}{3}x^2 - 9$

<em>Hence, f(x) and g(x) and not inverse functions</em>

Pete traveled 1,380 miles in two days.The first day , he traveled 1.5 times as far as he did the second day . How many miles did

ahrayia [7]

Let s be the distance traveled the second day.

1.5s+s=1380

2.5s=1380

s=552

So on the first day he traveled 1380-552=828 miles.

Which products result in a difference of squares or a perfect square trinomial? Check all that apply.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Option B) (7x+4)(7x+4) is correct

The product result in a perfect square trinomial is

$(7x+4)(7x+4)=49x^2+56x+14$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(7x+4)(7x+4)=(7x+4)^2$ ( using $(a+b)(a+b)=(a+b)^2$ )

$=(7x)^2+2(7x)(4)+4^2$ ( using $(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$ )

$=7^2x^2+56x+16$

$=49x^2+56x+14$

Therefore $(7x+4)(7x+4)=49x^2+56x+14$

which is a perfect square trinomial

A trinomial is a perfect square trinomial if it can be factored into a binomial multiplied to itself. In a perfect square trinomial, two terms will be perfect squares.

Option B) (7x+4)(7x+4) is correct

The product result in a perfect square trinomial is

$(7x+4)(7x+4)=49x^2+56x+14$

Diane owes $11901.00 to the bank after completing her college degree. With the funds from her new job she is paying back $153.00

Viefleur [7K]

On average, parents pay 10% of the total amount due with borrowed funds; students cover 14% with student loans and other debt-forming sources. The remaining 29% of the cost of college is mostly covered by scholarships and grants won by the student: 17% by scholarships and 11% by grants.
