Young companies with unpredictable earnings Walter Utilities is a dividend-paying company and is expected to pay an annual dividend of \( \$ 2.25 \) at the end of the year. Its dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of \( 9.00 \% \) per year. If Walter's stock currently trades for \( \$ 22.50 \) per share, then the expected rate of return on the stock is

Let \( f(x)=\sqrt{x+1} \) and \( g(x)=2 x-5 \). Find \( f \circ g \) and \( g \circ f \). a) \( (f \circ g)(x) \) b) \( (g \circ g)(x)= \) b) \( (x) \) \( (g \circ f)(x)= \)

FMU Question 1 Use exponent rules to simplify the following, giving all answers with positive exponents. (a) \( 6^{3} \times 6^{-5} \times 6^{-2} \) \( 3+(5)+(-2)=3-5-2=3-7=\frac{1}{64}=6^{-4} \times 6^{-2}=\frac{1}{6} \) \( 6^{3} \times 6^{-5} \times 6^{-2}= \) (b) \( \quad-5\left(a^{3}\right)^{0}-3+4^{0} \)

20. MARINE BIOLOGY Killer whales usually swim at a rate of \( 3.2-9.7 \) kilometers per hour, though they can travel up to 48.4 kilometers per hour. Suppose a migrating killer whale is swimming at an average rate of 4.5 kilometers per hour. The distance \( d \) the whale has traveled in \( t \) hours can be predicted by the equation \( d=4.5 t \). a. Graph the equation. b. Use the graph to predict the time it takes the killer whale to travel 30 kilometers.

\( 82^{\circ}, 75^{\circ} \), and \( 23^{\circ} \) and no sides equal (congruent) in length. How would this triangle be classified

1. Draw the lines. a. \( x=y \)
