Answer:

a=52

Step-by-step explanation:

-(a + 3)= -55

-(a) + -(3)= -55

-a - 3 (+3) = - 55+3

-a -3(+3) = -52

-a = - 52

a=52

or

-(a + 3)= -55

(a + 3)= 55

(a) + (3)= 55

a + 3(-3)= 55(-3)

a = 52

PLEASE HELP URGENT THANK YOU

So far the only true statement I see is that function f is increasing whilst function g is decreasing.

I cannot say yes to the first one as there is a lack of x-intercepts.

Past the interval of 0,2, there are no changes in the line of function g as it remains the same despite the increase in y. Function f on the other hand has a rate of change. 

The y-intercepts are the same (positive 2) so the third statement is out.
