For this case we must solve each of the functions.
We have then:
f (x) = x2 - 9, and g (x) = x - 3
h (x) = (x2 - 9) / (x - 3)
h (x) = ((x-3) (x + 3)) / (x - 3)
h (x) = x + 3
f (x) = x2 - 4x + 3, and g (x) = x - 3
h (x) = (x2 - 4x + 3) / (x - 3)
h (x) = ((x-3) (x-1)) / (x - 3)
h (x) = x-1
f (x) = x2 + 4x - 5, and g (x) = x - 1
h (x) = (x2 + 4x - 5) / (x - 1)
h (x) = ((x + 5) (x-1)) / (x - 1)
h (x) = x + 5
f (x) = x2 - 16, and g (x) = x - 4
h (x) = (x2 - 16) / (x - 4)
h (x) = ((x-4) (x + 4)) / (x - 4)
h (x) = x + 4
The second one is the answer
It goes by 8!
If u see, 4 + 8= 12 +(another) 8 = 20! It skips 8 every time!
If u were to continue it, 20 + 8 = 28 and so on!
The difference is the sum of the number totalled.
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-4p + 9 = -5
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>p</u></em>
- Subtract 9 on both sides: -4p = -14
- Divide -4 on both sides: p = 7/2
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in p into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>p</em>: -4(7/2) + 9 = -5
- Multiply: -14 + 9 = -5
- Add: -5 = -5
Here we see that -5 does indeed equal -5.
∴ p = 7/2 is the solution to the equation.
