Which of the following would be a good name for the function that takes the weight of a box and returns the energy needed to lift it?

(fog)(x) if f(x)=x^2- 4 and g(x)=x^2 + 2 x, f(g(x))= f(x^2+2x) (x^2+2x)^2-4 (x^2+2x)(x^2+2x)-4 (x^4+2x^3+5x+4x^2)-4 x^4+2x^3+4x^2+5x-4 what am i doing wrong

Use a calculator to verify that σ(x) = 62, σ(x2) = 1034, σ(y) = 644, σ(y2) = 93,438, and σ(x y) = 9,622. compute r. (enter a number. round your answer to three decimal places.) as x increases from 3 to 22 months, does the value of r imply that y should tend to increase or decrease? explain your answer. given our value of r, y should tend to increase as x increases. given our value of r, we can not draw any conclusions for the behavior of y as x increases. given our value of r, y should tend to remain constant as x increases. given our value of r, y should tend to decrease as x increases.
