Given: F(x) = 2x - 1; G(x) = 3x + 2; H(x) = x 2 Find H(x+a) - H(x)/a

Step-by-step explanation:

The stumbling block for most people is what exactly do you do the what's in the brackets of something like g(x+ 4) = 2x

The answer is, whatever you see on the left side where g(x) gets modified, you put on the right side wherever you see an x.

In this question

H( x) = x ^2

So if you see anything besides x on the left, then that's what goes on the right for x.

H(x + a) - H(x)/a = (x + a)^2 - (x^2)/a

You can expand this, but I don't see a reason for doing it.

H(x + a) - H(x)/a = (x + a)^2 - (x ^2)/a = x^2 + 2a + a^2 - x^2/a which gets you nowhere.

step-by-step explanation:

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
