3x - 15

Simply add the different container sizes together. The first container holds x - 10 liters, the second holds x - 5 liters, and the third holds x liters.

(x - 10) + (x - 5) + x

Because of the associative property of Addition, we can remove the parentheses.

x - 10 + x - 5 + x

Because of the communicative property of addition, we can reorder the terms so that the like terms are next to each other.

x + x + x - 10 - 5

Now, combine the x’s.

3x - 10 - 5

Finally, subtract -10 minus - 5.

3x - 15

F(x) = x ^ 2 . What is g(x) ?

Bond [772]

Given:

The function is:

$f(x)=x^2$

The graphs of functions $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ .

To find:

The function $g(x)$ .

Solution:

We have,

$f(x)=x^2$

The function $f(x)$ is vertically compresses to get the graph of the function $g(x)$ . So, the function $g(x)$ is:

$g(x)=kf(x)$

$g(x)=kx^2$ ...(i)

From the given graph it is clear that the graph of the function $g(x)$ passes through the point (3,3). So, putting $x=3$ and $g(x)=3$ in the above function, we get
