First, consider the total male and female passengers which is 48. Equation 1 can be expressed as,
                                   xx + yy = 48
Then, for the ratio,
                               xx / yy = 5/7
Cross-multiplying the equation. The equation becomes,
                                              7xx = 5yy
The two linear equations are therefore,
                        (1) xx + yy = 48
                        (2) 7xx - 5yy = 0

If f={(-1,-3), (1,1),(2,3),(4,6)} and g={(-1,-1),(1,7),(4,3)} what is (f+g)(4)?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

(f + g)(4) = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

f = {(-1,-3), (1,1),(2,3),(4,6)}

this means that:

f(-1) = -3

f(1) = 1

f(2) = 3

f(4) = 6

and we also know that:

g = {(-1,-1),(1,7),(4,3)}

hich means that:

g(-1) = -1

g(1) = 7

g(4) = 3

Now we want to find:

(f + g)(4)

For the general case of two functions f(x) and g(x)

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

Then:

(f + g)(4) = f(4) + g(4)

and we know both of these values, so we can just replace them:

(f + g)(4) = f(4) + g(4) = 6 + 3 = 9

Then we get:

(f + g)(4) = 9
