Fern is helping her mother make decorations for a family gathering Fern is putting lace around napkins for each napkin Fern needs 3/5 yard of lace Fern will put the lace on 10 napkins.

The equation to find the total yards of lace Fern need is .

Fern will need 6 yards of lace in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Yard of lace required for each napkins =

Number of napkins needs to put lace = 10

We need to Write an equation to solve this and explain how many yards of lace Fern will need total.

Solution:

Let the total yards of lace Fern need be 'x'.

So we can say that;

total yards of lace Fern need can be calculated by multiplying Yard of lace required for each napkins with Number of napkins needs to put lace .

framing in equation form we get;

Hence the equation to find the total yards of lace Fern need is .

On solving we get;

Hence Fern will need 6 yards of lace in total.

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!
