a. (f+g)(x) = 8x+2

b. (f-g)(x) = 4x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 6x-2\\and\\g(x)=2x+4$

$(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)\\=6x-2+(2x+4)\\=6x-2+2x+4\\=6x+2x-2+4\\=8x+2$

$(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\=(6x-2)-(2x+4)\\=6x-2-2x-4\\=6x-2x-2-4\\=4x-6$

Hence,

a. (f+g)(x) = 8x+2

b. (f-g)(x) = 4x-6

Maria had planned to walk 10 1/8 miles on wednesday, if she walked 7 2/8 miles in the morning how far would she need to walk in

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Distance Maria had to walk in the afternoon is $2\frac{7}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets take that Maria walked $x$ miles in the afternoon.

Distance walked in the morning + distance walked in the afternoon = $10\frac{1}{8}$

⇒ $7\frac{2}{8} +x=10\frac{1}{8}$

$\frac{58}{8} +\frac{8x}{8} =\frac{81}{8}$

$\frac{58+8x}{8} =\frac{81}{8}$

$58+8x=81$

$8x=81-58\\$

$8x=23$

$x=\frac{23}{8}$

$x=2\frac{7}{8}$

Marlene is solving a number puzzle involving three rational numbers a, b, and c. Here are her clues:

rusak2 [61]

A/c = 8.....a = 8c
a * c = 2 ...a = 2/c
a/b = -16 ...a = -16b
a * b = -1....
b/c = -0.5

2/c = 8c
2 = 8c^2
1/4 = c^2
sqrt 1/4 = c
0.5 (or 1/2) = c <===

a * c = 2
0.5a = 2
a = 2/0.5
a = 4 <===

a = -16b
4 = -16b
4/-16 = b
-1/4 (or - 0.25) = b <===
