1

Find the inverse of .

$y = \frac{x+1}{10}$

$y = \frac{x-1}{10}$

$x = \frac{y - 1}{10}$

Explanation

To find the inverse of the function, we switch the switch the and variables in the function.

Switching and gives

Then, solving for gives our answer:

$\frac{x-1}{10} = y$

2

Determine the value of of the function

$f(x)=\sqrt{71-x}$

$f(7)=\sqrt{78}$

$f(7),, \textsc{dne}$

Explanation

In order to determine the value of of the function we set The value becomes

$f(7)=\sqrt{71-7}=\sqrt{64}=8$

As such

3

$f(7)=\sqrt{71-7}=\sqrt{64}=8$

As such

7

and . Find $(f\circ g)(x)$ .

$(f\circ g)(x)=4x^2+12x+6$

$(f\circ g)(x)=2x^2+12x+12$

$(f\circ g)(x)=2x^2-6$

$(f\circ g)(x)=4x^2-12x+9$

$(f\circ g)(x)=2x^2-3$

Explanation

${\color{Blue} f(x)=x^2-3}$ and ${\color{Red} g(x)=2x+3}$ .

To find $(f\circ g)(x)$ we plug in the function everywhere there is a variable in the function .

This is the composition of "f of g of x".

$(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))={\color{Blue} (}{\color{Red} 2x+3}{\color{Blue} )}{\color{Blue} ^2-3}$

Foil the square and simplify:

$(f\circ g)(x)=(4x^2+12x+9)=\mathbf{4x^2+12x+6}$

8

Find if and .

Explanation

Replace and substitute the value of into so that we are finding .

9

and . Find $(f\circ g)(x)$ .

$(f\circ g)(x)=4x^2+12x+6$

$(f\circ g)(x)=2x^2+12x+12$
