Solution Steps

Step 1: Finding the composition $(f \circ g)(x)$

First, evaluate $g(3) = -8$. Then, substitute this into $f(x)$ to get $f(g(3)) = -36$. After simplification, $(f \circ g)(3) = -36$.

Step 2: Finding the composition $(g \circ f)(x)$

First, evaluate $f(3) = 19$. Then, substitute this into $g(x)$ to get $g(f(3)) = -360$. After simplification, $(g \circ f)(3) = -360$.

Final Answer:

The composition $(f \circ g)(3)$ is approximately -36 when rounded to 2 decimal places. The composition $(g \circ f)(3)$ is approximately -360 when rounded to 2 decimal places.

Weight Away, a company that sells weight-loss plans, often advertises the effectiveness of its plans by highlighting the stories of a few clients who have lost extraordinary amounts of weight. The following histogram gives information about more "typical" clients, summarizing the weight loss (in pounds) over the past month for a sample of 50 clients. Based on the histogram, find the proportion of weight loss values in the sample that are less than 40 pounds. Write your answer as a decimal, and do not round your answer.

A patient's injuries included a right elbow dislocation, a compound fracture of the shaft of the tibia and three missing teeth on the mandible. X-rays of the tibia and fibula indicated cartilaginous epiphyseal plates. The pelvis has a wide pubic angle. The patient is without identification. Which of these descriptions match the diagnosis best? male adult with a fracture to the proximal epiphysis of the tibia male adolescent or child with a fracture to the proximal epiphysis of the tibia female adult with a fracture to the distal epiphysis of the tibia female adolescent or child with a fracture to the diaphysis of the tibia
