For these types of problems, plug the value inside the ( ) into the (x) of the equation.
g (-3), g (x) = 2x-2
g (x) = 2 (-3) - 2 = -6 - 2 = -8
g (-3) = -8
32. For every one salad it was 8 steaks, so if they sold 4 steaks, just multiply 4 by 8, where 8 represents the number of salads for every steak. The answer would be 32. Correct me if I'm wrong but that my answer.
<span>Alright, here's your answer.
y-intercept is computed (not found) by assigning x = 0 and computing y: here that is f(0) = Log(2*0 + 1) – 1 = Log(1) – 1 = 0 – 1 = -1
y-intercept is (0, -1)
x-intercept is computed by solving f(x) = 0 for x: here that is
0 = Log(2x + 1) – 1 → 1 = Log(2x + 1)
Assuming the Log cited is base 10, then 10^1 = 10^Log(2x + 1) = 2x + 1
That’s 10 = 2x + 1
Therefore 9 = 2x
x = 9/2 = 4.5
Check this result in the original equation, I did!
Your answer is - x-intercept is (4.5, 0)
I hope I helped! :)
