Question

Complete the table of inputs for the given function.

Answer 1

Answer:

a. $x = \frac{3}{8}$

b. $g(0) = 3$

c. $x = 1$

d. $g(3) = -21$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$g(x) = 3 - 8x$

Solving (a): When g(x) = 0

Substitute 0 for g(x)

$g(x) = 3 - 8x$

$0 = 3 - 8x$

Solve for 8x

$8x = 3$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{3}{8}$

Solving (b): when x = 0

Substitute 0 for x

$g(x) = 3 - 8x$

$g(0) = 3 - 8 * 0$

$g(0) = 3 - 0$

$g(0) = 3$

Solving (c): When g(x) = -5

Substitute -5 for g(x)

$g(x) = 3 - 8x$

$-5 = 3 - 8x$

Solve for 8x

$8x = 3 + 5$

$8x = 8$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{8}{8}$

$x = 1$

Solving (d): When x = 3

Substitute 3 for x

$g(x) = 3 - 8x$

$g(3) = 3 - 8 * 3$

$g(3) = 3 - 24$

$g(3) = -21$
