Three hours after the bus starts out, it's 150 miles ahead of the truck. Then the truck starts out, and it gains (65-50)=15 miles on the bus every hour. If neither of them ever stops for anything, the truck will catch up to the bus in ( 150/15 ) = 10 hours. . . . (The hint is useless.)

For f(x)=4x+1 and g(x)=x^2-5, find (f+g)(x)
inn [45]

For this case we have the following functions:

f (x) = 4x + 1\\g (x) = x ^ 2-5

We must find (f + g) (x). By definition we have to:

(f + g) (x) = f (x) + g (x)

So:

(f + g) (x) = (4x + 1) + (x ^ 2-5) = 4x + 1 + x ^ 2-5 =

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

(f + g) (x) = x ^ 2 + 4x-4

Answer:

(f + g) (x) = x ^ 2 + 4x-4

Draw the graph of the equation x − y = 4
timurjin [86]

Answer:

We have the equation:

x - y = 4

We can write this as a linear equation in the slope-intercept form if we isolate the variable y.

We get:

y = x - 4

Now to graph this function, we need to evaluate x in two different points and get two points (x, y) of the line.

If we use x = 1 and x = 2, then we get:

y(1) = 1 - 4 = - 3

Then we have the point (1, -3)

and:

y(2) = 2 - 4 = - 2

Then we have the point (2, - 4)

Now we need to draw these two points in the coordinate axis, and draw a line that connects the points, the example can be seen in the image below.

a) To use the graph, we need to locate the value x= 7 in the x-axis.

Then draw a vertical line

In the point where the vertical line intersects the graph, we draw an horizontal line.

The y-value will be the value at which this horizontal line intersects the y-axis

In this case, is at  y = 3.

Then when x = 7, y = 3.

(you can see it in the graph)

ii) The coordinate at which the graph intersects the x-axis can be seen in the graph, it is the point (0, 4)
