so x=5
substituting for x in the equation we get:
Ans C: 16
This translates to "a number" is greater than 45. All you have to do now is translate these words into an algebraic statement. Basically, you replace "a number" with the variable which it is defined for, and you use the "greater than" symbol to show that the variable is greater than the value of 45.
Answer:
- 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate f(2) by substituting x = 2 into f(x) , that is
f(2) = 3(2) - 3 = 6 - 3 = 3
Evaluate g(- 1) by substituting x = - 1 into g(x) , that is
g(- 1) = 8 - (- 1)² = 8 - 1 = 7
Thus
4f(2) - 4g(- 1)
= 4(3) - 4(7)
= 12 - 28
= - 16
