Composition of functions~

Hence, option B) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

g(x) = 2x-5

h(x) = x² - 2

To determine

In order to determine g(h(-8)), first we need to determine h(-8), so

substituting x = -8 in h(x) = x² - 2

h(x) = x² - 2

h(-8) = (-8)² - 2

h(-8) = 64 - 2

h(-8) = 62

so we can write

now, to determine g(62), substitute x = 62 in g(x) = 2x-5v

g(x) = 2x-5

g(62) = 2(62) - 5

g(62) = 124 - 5

g(62) = 119

so,

Therefore,

Hence, option B) is true.

38.5

step-by-step explanation:

lets say, first number = r

second number = 3r+7

total = 49

(r)+(3r+7)= 49

4r+7 = 49

4r = 42

r = 42/4

r= 10.5

3r+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 38.5
