One ordered pair (a, b) satisfies the two equations ab^4 = 12$ and a^5 b^5 = 7776. what is the value of a in this ordered pair?

Given equations:

Solving first equation for a, we get

Substituting in second equation, we get

= 7776

Plugging in first eqaution.

.

since proposition states that a number is greater than 25, if is true then the number must actually be greater than 25.

this implies that all possible options, except 24, can be accepted

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2
