Answer:
Option 4.) month 4
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
----> equation A
----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
The solution is the point (3,27)
That means -----> For x=3 months, the populations in both functions are the same (the bacteria populations is 27)
therefore
For x> 3 months the f(x) population is greater then the g(x) population
It's a linear function. We need only two points to sketch the graph.
f(x) = -5x + 4 → y = -5x + 4
for x = 0 → y = -5(0) + 4 = 0 + 4 = 4 → (0, 4)
for x = 1 → y= -5(1) + 4 = -5 + 4 = -1 → (1, -1)
The domain and the range is the set of all real numbers.
