Y=x-7
2x+y=8
2x+x-7=8
3x=15
x=15/3
x=5
y=x-7
y=5-7
y=-2

x=5
y=-2

Y = x - 7
2x + y = 8

2x + (x - 7) = 8
2x + x - 7 = 8
 3x - 7 = 8
 + 7 + 7
 3x = 15
 3 3
 x = 5
y = x - 7
y = 5 - 7
y = -2
(x, y) = (5, -2)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we are asked in the problem to get the linear equations that results to 2x2 =x2 + 4x +8. In this case, the two equations on each sides can be equal to y in which the two equations are then identical. The systems of equations that has the right answer is C.

F(x) : |x|

lutik1710 [3]

-2•f(x+1)+6 = -2 |x+1| +6, which is NOT g(x).

-2•f(x+1)+3 = -2 |x+1| +3, which IS g(x).

Side note: you’re writing g(x) in terms of f(x), because f(x) is in the answer.

If you want to write f(x) in terms of g(x), then g(x) would be in the answer.
