There are two answers:

B) 5

C) 8

==============================================

Explanation:

If we had a triangle with sides a, b and c, then we can say

b-a < c < b+a

where b is larger than 'a'. This is the triangle inequality theorem

In this case, a = 5 and b = 9 so,

b-a < c < b+a

9-5 < c < 9+5

4 < c < 14

Telling us that c is some number between 4 and 14, not including either endpoint. If c is a whole number, then c could be any value from this set: {5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13}

We see that the numbers 5 and 8 are in this set. The values 3 and 15 are not in the set.

Given f(x) and g(x) = f(k⋅x), use the graph to determine the value of k.
otez555 [7]

equation of f(x)

point of intersection of f(x) and x axis - (-4,0)

point of intersection of f(x) and y axis - (0,4)

Equation y = x +4

g(x) = f( kx)

= kx +4

g(-2) = -2

-2k +4= -2

-2k = -2 -4

-2k = -6

k= 3
