As points, x-intercepts take the form (x,0), so to find the intercepts we can set y=0 and solve for x.

x\ln(x+e)=0\implies\begin{cases}x=0\\\ln(x+e)=0\end{cases}

From the first equation alone, we already know that x=0 is a solution, which means one intercept is (0,0).

The second equation gives

\ln(x+e)=0\implies e^{\ln(x+e)}=e^0\implies x+e=1\implies x=1-e

so that the second intercept occurs at (1-e,0).

So if a=0 and b=1-e, we have a+b=1-e, giving C as the answer.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

given

- 4x²(3x - 7)

multiply each term in the parenthesis by - 4x²

= (-4x² × 3x) + ( - 4x² × - 7)

F(x) = -1<br> g(x) = x-4<br> Can you evaluate (gof)(o)? Explain why or why<br> not.
ella [17]
Answer: Yes. (gof)(0) = -5

(gof)(0) means you will find the function of g(f(0)), which means we will find f(0) and plug that value in for x in the function g(x)

We know f(0) is -1, so we can plug -1 into the equation of g(x)

(gof)(0) = (-1) - 4
(gof)(0) = -5
