If f(x) = 2x -5 and g(x) = lnx + 8x find fog(1)

Given the functions:


f(x) =
2x-5


g(x) = lnx + 8x


We need
to find fog(1)


First we will determine the function
fog(x)


==> fog(x) =
f(g(x))


                 = f( lnx +
8x)


                  = 2(lnx + 8x)
-5


                    = 2lnx + 16x -
5


==> fog(x) = 2lnx + 16x 
-5


Now we will substitute with x =
1


==> fog(1) = 2ln1 + 16*1
-5


                 = 2*0 + 16 -5 =
11


==> fog(1) =
11

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
