Step-by-step explanation:
Find functions f and g such that (f o g)(x) = [tex] \sqrt{2x} + 19[/tex]
We have the expression:
[tex](fog)(x)=\sqrt[]{2x}+19[/tex]So:
[tex]g(x)=2x[/tex][tex]f(x)=\sqrt[]{x}+19[/tex]***
Since we want to get the function g composed in the function f, and the result of this is:
[tex](fog)(x)=\sqrt[]{2x}+19[/tex]When we replace g in f, we have to get as answer the previous expression. And by looking at it the only place where we will be able to replace values is where the variable x is located. The function f will have the "skeleton" or shape of the overall function and g will be injected in it.
From this, we can have that f might be x + 19 and g might be sqrt(2x), but the only options that are given such that when we replace g in x of f, are f = sqrt(x) + 19 and g = 2x.
assume the rate of inflation is 7% per year for the next 2 years. what will be the cost of goods 2 years from now adjusted for inflation if the goods cost $330.00 today? round to the nearest cent
To find the cost of the goods after two years we are going to use the formula:
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]where P is the cost now, r is the inglation rate in decimal form, n is the number of times the interest is taken per year and t is the time.
In this case we have P=$300.00, r=0.07, n=1 (once per year) and t=2 (two years). Plugging this values we have:
[tex]A=330(1+\frac{0.07}{1})^{1\cdot2}=377.82[/tex]Therefore after two years the cost will be $377.82

Interpreting the whale population on the graph. I think (A).
The y-intercept is the value in the vertical axis (y-value) when the value on the horizontal axis is zero (x = 0).
Looking at the horizontal axis, the value of x indicates the generation since 2007.
That means x = 0 indicates the generation in year 2007.
The value of y for x = 0 is 240, so the population in year 2007 is 240.

if a driver drive at aconstant rate of 38 miles per hour how long would it take the driver to drive 209 mile
In order to calculate how long would it take to drive 209 miles, we just need to divide this total amount of miles by the speed of the driver.
So we have:
[tex]\text{time}=\frac{209}{38}=5.5[/tex]So it would take 5.5 hours (5 hours and 30 minutes).
A play court on the school playground is shaped like a square joined by a semicircle. The perimeteraround the entire play court is 182.8 ft., and 62.8 ft. of the total perimeter comes from the semicircle.aWhat is the radius of the semicircle? Use 3.14 for atb.The school wants to cover the play court with sports court flooring. Using 3.14 for, how manysquare feet of flooring does the school need to purchase to cover the play court?
The total perimeter of the court is 182.8 ft, of this, 62.8ft represents the perimeter of the semicircle.
a)
The perimeter of the semicircle is calculated as the circumference of half the circle:
[tex]P=r(\pi+2)[/tex]Now write it for r
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{P}{r}=\pi \\ r=\frac{P}{\pi} \end{gathered}[/tex]Knowing that P=62.8 and for pi we have to use 3.14
[tex]\begin{gathered} r=\frac{62.8}{3.14} \\ r=20ft \end{gathered}[/tex]The radius of the semicircle is r=20 ft
b.
To solve this exercise you have to calculate the area of the whole figure.
The figure can be decomposed in a rectangle and a semicircle, calculate the area of both figures and add them to have the total area of the ground.
Semicircle
The area of the semicircle (SC) can be calculated as
[tex]A_{SC}=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}[/tex]We already know that our semicircla has a radius of 10ft so its area is:
[tex]A_{SC}=\frac{3.14\cdot20^2}{2}=628ft^2[/tex]Rectangle
To calculate the area of the rectangle (R) you have to calculate its lenght first.
We know that the total perimeter of the court is 182.8ft, from this 62.8ft corresponds to the semicircle, and the rest corresponds to the rectangle, so that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} P_T=P_R+P_{SC} \\ P_R=P_T-P_{SC} \\ P_R=182.8-62.8=120ft \end{gathered}[/tex]The perimeter of the rectangle can be calculated as
[tex]P_R=2w+2l[/tex]The width of the rectangle has the same length as the diameter of the circle.
So it is
[tex]w=2r=2\cdot20=40ft[/tex]Now we can calculate the length of the rectangle
[tex]\begin{gathered} P_R=2w+2l \\ P_R-2w=2l \\ l=\frac{P_R-2w}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]For P=120ft and w=40ft
[tex]\begin{gathered} l=\frac{120-2\cdot40}{2} \\ l=20ft \end{gathered}[/tex]Now calculate the area of the rectangle
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_R=w\cdot l \\ A_R=40\cdot20 \\ A_R=800ft^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Finally add the areas to determine the total area of the court

The second one includes 1 small tier and 1 large tier, which is enough servings for 62 guests. How many guests does each size of tier serve? A small tier will serve ? guests and a large tier will serve ? guests.
the number of guests a small tier can serve is 22
the number of guest a large tier serves is 40
Explanation
Step 1
Set the equations
a) let
x represents the number of guest one small tier serves
y represents the number of guests one large tier serves
b) translate into math term
i)The first cake consists of 3 small tiers and 4 large tiers, which will serve a total of 226 guests,so
[tex]3x+4y=226\Rightarrow equation(1)[/tex]ii) The second one includes 1 small tier and 1 large tier, which is enough servings for 62 guests,so
[tex]x+y=62\Rightarrow equation(2)[/tex]Step 2
solve the equations:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3x+4y=226\Rightarrow equation(1) \\ x+y=62\operatorname{\Rightarrow}equat\imaginaryI on(2) \end{gathered}[/tex]a) isolate the x value in equation (2) and replace in equatino (1) to solve for y
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=62\Rightarrow equation(2) \\ subtract\text{ y in both sides} \\ x=62-y \end{gathered}[/tex]replace into equation(1) and solve for y
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3x+4y=226\Rightarrow equation(1) \\ 3(62-y)+4y=226 \\ 186-3y+4y=226 \\ add\text{ like terms} \\ 186+y=226 \\ subtrac\text{ 186 in both sides} \\ 186+y-186=226-186 \\ y=40 \end{gathered}[/tex]so, the number of guest a large tier serves is 40
b)now, replace the y value into equation (2) and solve for x
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=62\Rightarrow equation(2) \\ x+40=62 \\ subtract\text{ 40 in both sides} \\ x+40-40=62-40 \\ x=22 \end{gathered}[/tex]so, the number of guests a small tier can serve is 22the number of guests a small tier can serve is 22

Which of the following is NOT a factor of x3 + x2 - 4x - 4?x + 1x + 2x - 1x - 2
Answer: (x - 1)
Explanation
Given:
[tex]x^3+x^2-4x-4[/tex]To factor a third-degree polynomial, we can do it by grouping:
[tex]=(x^3+x^2)+(-4x-4)[/tex]Then, we have to find the common factor between groups:
[tex]=x^2(x+1)-4(x+1)[/tex]Now, we can get the common factor of (x+1):
[tex]=(x^2-4)(x+1)[/tex]Finally, the differences of squares equal the following:
[tex](x^2-a^2)=(x-a)(x+a)[/tex]Then, applying this rule to our factor we get:
[tex]=(x+2)(x-2)(x+1)[/tex]Thus, the only factor that is not correct is (x - 1)

Graph the line with slope -2 passing through the point (3,5)
To graph the line, you need to know at least two points of it.
Knowing its slope and one point you can determine the equation of the line by using the point-slope form:
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1_{})[/tex]Where
m is the slope of the line
(x₁,y₁) are the coordinates of one point of the line
For m=-2 and (x₁,y₁)=(3,5) the equation of the line is:
[tex]y-5=-2(x-3)[/tex]Next, replace the equation for any value of x and solve for y, for example, use x=2
[tex]y-5=-2(2-3)[/tex]-Solve the difference within the parentheses then the multiplication
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-5=-2(-1) \\ y-5=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]-Add 5 to both sides of the equation
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-5+5=2+5 \\ y=7 \end{gathered}[/tex]The coordinates for the second point are (2,7)
Plot both points and link them with a line

What function makes the HIV virus unique?
The function which makes the HIV virus unique is: B. It has viral DNA that is transmitted through indirect contact with infected persons.
HIV is an acronym or abbreviation for human immunodeficiency virus and it refers to a type of venereal disease that destabilizes and destroys the immune system of an infected person, thereby, making it impossible for antigens to effectively fight pathogens.
Generally, the high mutation or replication rate of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) owing to its enormous genetic diversity (deoxyribonucleic acid - DNA) makes it easily transmittable from an infected person to another.
This ultimately implies that, the HIV virus is unique among other viruses because it can be transmitted without having a direct contact with an infected person such as:
Sharing a hair clipper with him or her.
Using an object that has been infected by a HIV patient.
Additionally, it is extremely difficult to develop an effective and accurate vaccine against the HIV virus because it possesses a high error rate.
