If x - 4 ≥ 0, then |x - 4| = x - 4, so
G(x) = F(x) ⇒ 3x + 2 = (x - 4) + 2
⇒ 3x + 2 = x - 2
⇒ 2x = -4
⇒ x = -2
Otherwise, if x - 4 < 0, then |x - 4| = -(x - 4), so
G(x) = F(x) ⇒ 3x + 2 = -(x - 4) + 2
⇒ 3x + 2 = -x + 6
⇒ 4x = 4
⇒ x = 1
However,
• when x = -2, we have
G(-2) = 3(-2) + 2 = -4
F(-2) = |-2 - 4| + 2 = 8
• when x = 1, we have
G(1) = 3(1) + 2 = 5
F(1) = |1 - 4| + 2 = 5
so only x = 1 is a solution to G(x) = F(x).
Answer: 8.5
Step-by-step explanation: 8.5 because 34 divided by 4 is 8.5. To find the unit rate, make 4 hours turn to 1 hour. To do that, divided 4 by 4. Do the same with the other number, which is 34. 34 divided 4 is equal to 8.5
