First you divide both sides by -3
then you get |x + 7| = 4
what you do now is make two separate equations
drop the absolute value signs
x + 7 = 4 OR x + 7 = -4
subtract 7 from both sides AND BOTH EQUATIONS
x = -3 OR x = -11

lets check it!

-3 |-3 + 7| = -12                           -3 |-11 + 7| = -12
-3 |4| = -12                                  -3 |-4| = -12
-3 (4) = -12                                  -3 (4) = -12

yep! your answers are x = -3 OR x = -11

i hope this helps!!

Let f(x)=3x-6 and g(x)=x-2 find f(g(5))-ie. (f • g)(5) and its domain
Molodets [167]

Solution for f(g(5)):


The notation f(g(5)) or (f • g)(5) means that we first plug 5 into the function g(x), simplify, then plug the answer that we got to f(x). We will do this step-by-step:


Step 1: Plugging 5 to g(x)

g(5)=5-2=3


Step 2: Plugging the answer to f(x)

f(3)=3(3)-6=9-6=3


ANSWER: f(g(5)) is equal to 3.


Domain:


For the function f(g(x)), we can find the domain by analyzing the domains of each individual functions separately and excluding certain values depending on the restrictions from the outermost function.


However, since both functions have all real numbers as its domain, we will not need to do any exclusion anymore.


ANSWER: The domain of the function is all real numbers.

A cube has how many vertices
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: 8 vertices

Step-by-step explanation: A cube has 6 square faces. Each segment formed by the intersection of 2 faces is called an edge so a cube has 12 edges. Each point formed by the intersection of 3 edges is called a vertex so a cube has 8 vertices.
