Raul works at a movie theatre. The function f(x) represents the amount of money Raul earns per ticket, where x is the number of tickets he sells. The function g(x) represents the number of tickets Raul sells per hour, where x is the number of hours he works. Show all work to find f(g(x)), and explain what f(g(x)) represents.

Part 1)

Part 2)

The composition f(g(x)) represents the amount of money Raul earns per ticket given the amount of hours Raul works

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the two functions:

Which represents the amount of money Raul earns per ticket and:

Which represents the number of tickets Raul sells per hour.

Part 1)

We want to find f(g(x)).

So, we substitute g(x) for f(x). This yields:

This can be expanded a simplified as such:

Part 2)

Recall that f(x) outputs the amount of money Raul earns per ticket.

And g(x) inputs the amount of hours Raul works.

When we composed f(g(x)), the input and output stayed the same.

So, f(g(x)) represents the amount of money Raul earns per ticket (output of f(x)) given the amount of hours Raul works (input of g(x)).

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
