Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Find (g(2))
From the graph of (g(x)), when (x = 2), (g(2)=3)
Step2: Calculate (f(g(2)))
Since (f(x)=x^{2}+2) and (g(2) = 3), substitute (x = 3) into (f(x)) (f(3)=3^{2}+2=9 + 2=11)
Answer:
(1) (18) (Incorrect) (2) (14) (Incorrect) (3) (5) (Incorrect) (4) (9) (Incorrect)
Explanation:
Step1: Recall the formula for the average rate of change
The average rate of change of a function (y = f(x)) over the interval ([a,b]) is (\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b - a}) Here, (a = 2), (b=12) and (f(x)=\vert x - 5\vert)
Step2: Calculate (f(2)) and (f(12))
(f(2)=\vert2 - 5\vert=\vert-3\vert = 3) (f(12)=\vert12 - 5\vert=\vert7\vert = 7)
Step3: Calculate the average rate of change
(\frac{f(12)-f(2)}{12 - 2}=\frac{7-3}{10}=\frac{4}{10}=0.4)
Answer:
(1) (1) (Incorrect) (2) (0.4) (Correct) (3) (-1.25) (Incorrect) (4) (0.75) (Incorrect)
Explanation:
Step1: Recall the property of inverse functions
If ((a,b)) lies on the graph of (y = f(x)), then ((b,a)) lies on the graph of (y = f^{-1}(x))
Step2: Apply the property
Given the point ((4,-2)) on (y = f(x)), for the inverse function (y = f^{-1}(x)), the point ((-2,4)) must lie on its graph
Answer:
(1) ((4,2)) (Incorrect) (2) (\left(\frac{1}{4},-\frac{1}{2}\right)) (Incorrect) (3) ((-4,2)) (Incorrect) (4) ((-2,4)) (Correct)
Explanation:
Step1: Recall the domain of a rational function
The domain of a rational function (y=\frac{u(x)}{v(x)}) is all real numbers (x) such that (v(x)\neq0) For (f(x)=\frac{x - 7}{x + 5}), set (x+5\neq0)
Step2: Solve for (x)
(x+5\neq0\Rightarrow x\neq - 5)
Answer:
(1) (x=-5) (Correct) (2) (x = 5) (Incorrect) (3) (x=-7) (Incorrect) (4) (x = 7) (Incorrect)
Explanation:
Step1: Set up the equation
Given (f(x)=-\frac{1}{2}x + 6) and (f(x)=10) So, (-\frac{1}{2}x+6 = 10)
Step2: Solve for (x)
Subtract (6) from both sides: (-\frac{1}{2}x=10 - 6=4) Multiply both sides by (-2): (x=-8)
Answer:
(1) (1) (Incorrect) (2) (11) (Incorrect) (3) (-8) (Correct) (4) (-4) (Incorrect)
