Short Answer: g(x) = -3x This is a teaching question. 
Remark

Define and describe f(x)
f(x) is read as y is dependent of x. The notation of f(x) with some exceptions is the same thing as y. What it stands for and what it can be used for is to tell you want value x can have if you want a  specific value for x. 

Suppose you are given 
y = x + 2

Then suppose there is another statement above it
Let x = 5
y = x + 2
y = 5 + 2
y = 7

Instead of writing the top statement
Let x = 5
You use the shorthand
f(5) = x + 2
f(5) = 5 + 2
f(5) = 7.

So what does all this come down to. It is just a short way of writing Let x = ?
f(?) is what x will equal. x will become ?. 

Your Question.
Remember that f(x) tells you what x becomes
f(5) means that x = 5.
Is that more than 4 or is that less than 4? It's a serious question. 
Of course 5 is greater than 4. So that means that g(x) = - 3x. You don't have to do anything. Just read it.

Sistema de ecuaciones.5x+2y=-152x-2y=-6
Zolol [24]

Tnemos el sisema de ecuaciones:

\begin{gathered} 5x+2y=-15 \\ 2x-2y=-6 \end{gathered}

Podemos resolverlo por eliminación sumando ambas ecuaciones y eliminando y. Asi podemos resolver para x:

\begin{gathered} (5x+2y)+(2x-2y)=(-15)+(-6) \\ 7x+0y=-21 \\ x=-\frac{21}{7} \\ x=-3 \end{gathered}

Ahora podemos resolver para y con cualquiera de las dos ecuaciones:

\begin{gathered} 2x-2y=-6 \\ 2\cdot(-3)-2y=-6 \\ -6-2y=-6 \\ -2y=-6+6 \\ -2y=0 \\ y=0 \end{gathered}

Respuesta: x=-3, y=0

I need help with letter B, please!
Gala2k [10]

So if you want to fit the y-intercepts or "b", on the y-axis you should go by 25's [0, 25, 50, 75, 100...]

If the x-axis <u>does not have to</u> follow the same pattern (25's), you should go by 5's  [0, 5, 10, 15, 20...]

y = 7x + 50

y = 2x + 175

First I would plot the y-intercepts for each equation, then plot a few points with x = 5, 10, 15      Then draw a straight line.

The point where the two lines meet/cross paths is your solution. It should be (25, 225)  The x-axis is the number of miles, and the y-axis is the total cost. So Truck driver A and B would arrive/be at the same place/meet in 25 miles at the same cost of $225

The backboard of the basketball hoop forms a right triangle with the supporting rods, as shown. Use the
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

9.14 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Assuming the diagram attached, is similar to diagram required to support the question,

From the diagram,

Applying pythagoras theorem

a² = b²+c²...................... Equation 1

Where a = 13.4 in, b = x in, c = 9.8 in.

Substitute these values into equation 1

13.4² = x²+9.8²

x² = 13.4²-9.8²

x² = 179.56-96.04

x² = 83.52

x = √(83.52)

x = 9.14 inches

Hence the distance between the rods is 9.14 inches
