Let's try all the answers with the above equation
a) 4 as p and -4 as q
4 - 4 = 8? INCORRECT
b) 10 as p and 1 as q
10 - 1 = 8? INCORRECT
c) -4 as p and 4 as q
-4 - 4 = 8? INCORRECT
d) 11 as p and 3 as q
11 - 3 = 8? correct
-5-2+7-9 = -9
- and - make a plus :)
Answer:
135
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Total score obtained by Peter, Jan and Maxim = 269
Let :
Peter's score = x
Jan's score = y
Maxim's score = z
x + y + z = 269
x > (y + z)
For x to be greater Than y + z ;
Then x > (269 / 2) ; x > 134.5
The least possible x score is 135
Hence, Peter's least possible score is 135.
We know f(x)=5x+1. Plug in f(x) in the g(x) function.
We get

Distribute the 2 to 5x and 1.

Simplify to get

Now, we plug in -1 for x.
