Mathematics

Serhud [2]3 years ago
5 0

The value of x that will make the statement true is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • f(x) = x - 4
  • g(x) = 2x + 3

We need to find the value of x which makes [f(x) + 2g(x)] = 7

∵ f(x) = x - 4

∵ g(x) = 2x + 3

∵ f(x) + 2g(x) = 7

- Multiply g(x) by 2

∵ 2g(x) = 2(2x + 3) = 2(2x) + 2(3) = 4x + 6

∴ 2g(x) = 4x + 6

∵ f(x) + 2g(x) = 7

∴ (x - 4) + (4x + 6) = 7

- Add the like terms in the left hand side

∴ (x + 4x) + (-4 + 6) = 7

∴ 5x + 2 = 7

- Subtract 2 from both sides

∴ 5x = 5

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 1

The value of x that will make the statement true is 1

it would be 13.3 repeated but since you round to the nearest dollar it would be 13. All I did was divide 40 by 3.
