f(x) = (3/4)ˣ - 4
As x gets really negative (3/4)ˣ grows positively without bound (because it's (4/3)⁻ˣ and 4/3 > 1).
As x gets really positive (3/4)ˣ tends to zero but never quite gets there.
So (3/4)ˣ > 0 for all x
So f(x) > 0 - 4 for all x
Answer: { y | y > -4 }, first choice
The variable for Maggie will be M and 2x-3 be her younger brothers age (<u>Twice her age). </u>We then would turn this into <u>an algebraic problem</u>. (m+2x -3=24).
3x-3=24, we would add 3 to both sides (-3 and 24). 24 + 3 equals 27, we now have to divide -3x and 27 on both sides, which equals <u>9. (x=9)</u>
1 2/5 + 3 1/2
= 7/5 + 7/2
= ((7x2)+(7x5))/(5x2)
=(14+35)/10
=49/10
=4 9/10
