Use the identity
sec^2x = 1 + tan^2 x
- so sec x = sqrt(1 + tan^2 x) then:-
tan x + sqrt( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1
sqrt ( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1 - tan x
1 + tan^2 x = 1 + tan^2x - 2 tan x
0 = -2 tanx
tan x = 0
x = 0, π
π is an extraneous root because sec 180 = -1
So the answer is 0 degrees
g(x) is basically transformed f(x). First, let's focus on f(x) graph. Notice how the graph has slope of 1 and intersect y-axis at (0,0).
Which means that our equation for f(x) is:

Now then we focus on g(x). g(x) is f(x+k). That means if f(x) = x then f(x+k) would mean substitute x = x+k in the equation.

Next, we want to find the value of k. In the slope-intercept form or y = mx+b where m = slope and b = y-intercept. Notice the g(x) graph and see that the graph intersects y-axis at (0,4). Therefore k = y-intercept = 4.

Answer
- g(x) = x+4
- Therefore the value of k is 4.
Answer:
You will break even on the car wash when you buy 13.5 gallons. As long as you buy that or more, it is cheaper to get the car wash.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, we need to create equations for both situations. If we let x equal the amount of gallons purchased, we can model the first equation as:
f(x) = 3.35x
And the second equation as:
f(x) = 3.05x + 4.05
Then to find when they equal each other, we can set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x.
3.35x = 3.05x + 4.05
0.30x = 4.05
x = 13.5
This means once you buy 13.5 gallons, the prices will be the same. Any amount over that and the car wash will be cheaper
