Answer:38
Step-by-step explanation:
G (x) = x + 1 (fog) (x) = x 2 + 3x + 1 ⇒ (fog) (x) = x 2 + 3x + 1 ⇒ f (g (x)) = x 2 + 3x + 1 ⇒ f (x + 1) = x 2 + 3x + 1 Eg x + 1 = p, then x = p - 1. ⇒ f (p) = (p - 1) 2 + 3 ( p - 1) + 1 ⇒ f (p) = p 2 - 2p + 1 + 3p - 3 + 1 ⇒ f (p) = p 2 + p - 1 So f (x) = x 2 + x - 1 - ->
ANSWER IS : x 2 + x - 1

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:

Subtract the fractions to get your final answer:

X=-7 AB=-72
steps
since m is a midpoint, AM and MB are congruent so you set the two equations equal to each other, 4x-9=5x-3/3( is this a typo? bc 3/3 is 1)
subtract 4x from both sides m, -8=x-1
add 1 to both sides
x=-7
then plug -7 in for x 4(-7)-8=-36
since the two segments are congruent u do -36 x 2= -72
