Let f (x) = 1 +8 and g(x) = x^2. What is (g o f) (2)? "Note - this is a composition, not multiplication.

A.12
B.100
C. x^2+16 + 64

a reflection across the x axis and a 90 degree rotation left and right.

large crystals result from very slow cooling.

evaporation of water: this would produce an evaporite which is a sedimentary rock. like a salt pan in a desert. not possible to have volcanic rocks originate this way.

crystalization in molten earth: slow cooling over time. (hundreds to millions of years)

crystalization at earth's surface: this results in fast cooling. (a few hours to a few months or years)

crystalization from cooling off hot water: that would be a hydrothermal deposit. while associated with volcanics they are not volcanic rocks themselves and usually occur fairly rapidly.

graph #4 (last graph) depict the function   f(x)= -m(x-d)^1/5 i

step-by-step explanation:

we know that

m=slope

but in this function slope is -m that means slope is decreasing and it is decreasing by 1/5 points down the x-axis.

which is shown in graph four

a decreasing slope down x-axis by 1/5 points.

hence 4th graph is the right option for this.
