F(x)=−5x^3−4x^2+8x and g(x)=−4x^2+8, find (f−g)(x) and (f−g)(−2).

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) , that is

f(x) - g(x)

= - 5x³ - 4x² + 8x - (- 4x² + 8) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= - 5x³ - 4x² + 8x + 4x² - 8 ← collect like terms

= - 5x³ + 8x - 8

Substitute x = - 2 into this expression, thus

(f - g)(- 2)

= - 5(- 2)³ + 8(- 2) - 8

= - 5(- 8) - 16 - 8

= 40 - 16 - 8

= 16

1. is 4 and 2. is 3

step-by-step explanation:

so if you look at the first one you see that 1 is to 4 and 2 is to 8 and so on, so you can see for every 1 there is a times 4 so if it were 3 then it would be 3*4 and it is 12

for number 2 it is 3 because 1 is to 3 and 2 is to 6 so for every 1 there is 3 so if it were 3 then there would be 3*3 = 9

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
