Hey there :)
f (x) = 5x² - 2x
g (x) = 3x² + x - 4
( f + g )( x ) is f ( x ) + g ( x )
5x² - 2x + 3x² + x - 4
Combine like-terms
5x² + 3x² - 2x + x - 4
8x² - x - 4
Your option will be the third option
Answer:
Yes, lines M and N intersect because their slopes are different.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can start out by finding the slope of Line M and Line N. The slope formula is (y_2 - y_1)/(x_ 2- x_1)
Slope of Line M:
(3--11) / (3--4)
(3+11) / (3+4)
14/7
2
Now we know that the slope of Line M is 2.
Slope of Line N:
(9--2) / (-6-5)
11/-11
The slope of Line N is -1!
Since the slopes of Line N and M are different, they intersect. The answer is Yes, lines M and N intersect because their slopes are different.
If the slopes were the same, Line N and M would NEVER intersect because they are parallel.
Hope this helps
X = -3/2
I hope my work .... helped you out a little.
I feel like it’s either 1 or 2
