Question

Graph f(x)=2x+1 and g(x)=−x+7 on the same coordinate plane.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, you need to set both functions equal to each other and simplify to find the value of "x".

f(x) = 2x + 1

g(x) = -x + 7

f(x) = g(x)                                              <----- Given equation

2x + 1 = -x + 7                                      <----- Insert functions

3x + 1 = 7                                             <----- Add "x" to both sides

3x = 6                                                  <----- Subtract 1 from both sides

x = 2                                                    <----- Divide both sides by 3
