Assignment 4 April‚ 7 2013 Mat222 In this week of class we have been taught how to evaluate‚ combine and find inverses of working relations or functions. We will be computing‚ composing‚ transforming and finding the inverse of some functions. We are working with the following functions: f(x) = 2x+5 g(x) = x2 -3 h(x) = (7-3x)/3 We have been asked to compute (f – h)(4). (f – h)(4) = f(4) – h(4) So we can evaluate each separately and then subtract. f(4)

First‚ we’ll make sure we know what these terms mean. Igneous and metamorphic rocks: igneous – rocks that have formed from the cooling of magma. Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have been altered. Amphibole etc. These are types of minerals that are part of the recipe of igneous rocks. Plutonic: cooled beneath the earth surface Felsic: more feldspar mineral and more silica Mafic – more magnesium and iron rich minerals. Peridotite – the rock that forms in the mantle – lots of minerals
