given the functions k(x) = 2x2 − 8 and p(x) = x − 4, find (k ∘ p)(x).
a. (k ∘ p)(x) = 2x2 − 16x + 24
b. (k ∘ p)(x) = 2x2 − 8x + 8
c. (k ∘ p)(x) = 2x2 − 16x + 32
d. (k ∘ p)(x) = 2x2 − 12

a.  2x^2 - 16x + 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

k(x) = 2x^2 − 8

p(x) = x − 4

To find ( k o p)(x) we replace the x in k(x) by x - 4:

= 2(x - 4)^2 - 8

= 2x^2 - 16x + 32 - 8

= 2x^2 - 16x + 24.

A

Step-by-step explanation:

(kop)(x)=k{p(x)}

=k(x-4)

=2(x-4)²-8

=2(x²-8x+16)-8

=2x²-16x+32-8

=2x²-16x+24

your answer is 23/2 - 13.5

step-by-step explanation:

7/2 evaluates to

multiply x and 4.5

multiply x and 1

the x just gets copied along.

the answer is x

x

4.5*x evaluates to 4.5x

multiply 3 and 4.5x

multiply 1 and x

the x just gets copied along.

x

4.5*x*3 evaluates to 13.5x

7/2-4.5*x*3 evaluates to

  + 8 =

the answer is

7/2-4.5*x*3+8 evaluates to
