What is the value of g(0)<br> -2<br> -1<br> 3<br> 6
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An x value of 0 can only be plugged into the equation that has a domain that includes 0. The first function's domain is between -2 and -4, so 0 is not included in that domain. In the third function, the domain is between 1 and 3, so 0 is not included in that domain, either. The middle function's domain does include 0 (0 falls between -2 and 1) so we can only evaluate this function at an x value of 0.

g(0) = -0 - 1 so

g(0) = -1

What number is 120% of 12
Rasek [7]
120% of 12 is 14.4.I got this by doing this:

12/x=100/120
<span>(12/x)*x=(100/120)*x       - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>12=0.833333333333*x       - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.833333333333) to get x
<span>12/0.833333333333=x </span>
<span>14.4=x </span>
<span>x=14.4</span>
